The National Center of Surgery has introduced the Canon Aquilion ONE INSIGHT Edition, a high-end 640-slice digital computed tomography scanner with spectrum imaging capabilities. This is a digital spectral CT scanner that offers highly accurate, quick, and secure diagnostics.
Artificial intelligence-enhanced image quality
Precise IQ Engine (PIQE) — a unique AI algorithm. This technology provides sharp, detailed, and artifact-free images.
It is especially important in cardiac CT coronary angiography (DLR), where the visualization of coronary arteries improves by 70%, visualization of stents and atherosclerotic plaques without increasing radiation dose, which improves diagnostic reliability.
Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE | CT) is a deep learning system that produces clear, consistent, high-quality images by improving the signal and reducing image noise.
CLEAR Motion Cardiac — Cardiac CT Angiography
CLEAR Motion Cardiac technology is designed for cardiac CT angiography (CCTA), providing motion correction of raw data.
The technology is particularly effective for:
- High heart rate (tachycardia)
- Irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
- For patients who are not eligible for beta-blockers
This improves diagnostic precision, eliminates the requirement for follow-up research, and eliminates the need for further radiation throughout the study.
Ultra-fast scanning — 16 cm coverage in one rotation
The 16 cm coverage in a single rotation enables examination of organs in seconds, without table movement. This significantly reduces the need for breath holding and is especially important for patients with severe pathology.
Minimal radiation exposure and patient safety.
A new silver-containing filter dubbed SilverBeam filtering is incorporated into the tube to filter away high and low energy photons while retaining high energy photons, resulting in the best possible images with the least amount of radiation exposure. As a result, with the inclusion of AI, precise control of radiation dose is achieved, the study is even safer and makes it possible to perform CT scans even when frequent monitoring is required. The unique ability to tilt the gantry additionally protects the eyeball from excessive radiation.
Comfort for all patients
A spacious and comfortable CT tunnel
No weight restrictions — for bariatric patients up to 315 kg
Optimal environment for patients with claustrophobia (fear of enclosed spaces)
Spectral computed tomography (Spectral CT), often called "Dual-Energy CT", is one of the most modern directions in radiology.
Main advantages over conventional CT scan:
Spectral CT has several important advantages:
- Accurate tissue differentiation;
- Virtual "non-contrast" imaging, resulting in a 2-fold reduction in radiation dose;
- Determining the composition of the stones, as a result of which we make an accurate differentiation - whether the patient needs surgical stone removal;
- Reducing metal artifacts, maximally accurate diagnosis in the presence of prostheses;
- A lower dose of contrast material is especially important in patients with allergies or kidney disease.
Spectral CT is of particular importance in:
- Oncology;
- Cardiology (cardiac CT during coronary angiography);
- Urology;
- Angiology;
For those who frequently undergo CT scans or have kidney failure, CT contrast studies should be prescribed with caution.
