The Aquilion ONE/Insight Edition and Aquilion Serve SP computed tomography (CT) systems reportedly offer enhanced deep learning reconstruction and intuitive workflow efficiencies.
Combining imaging advances with the promise of innovative workflow efficiencies, Canon Medical Systems is showcasing the new computed tomography (CT) systems Aquilion ONE/Insight Edition and Aquilion Serve SP this week at the annual Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference this week in Chicago.
For the Aquilion ONE/Insight Edition, the company says key benefits include enhanced image resolution with deep learning reconstruction technology, the capability to perform full-body scans in seconds and a compact, air-cooled design that can be accommodated in standard CT rooms. The system’s INSTINX automation also allows for a 40 percent reduction in workflow steps, according to Canon Medical Systems.
In addition to deep learning reconstruction capabilities, the Aquilion Serve SP system enables scanning of multiple areas with one breath hold and one injection. Canon Medical Systems adds that the device’s Anatomic Landmark Detection offers a 97 percent accuracy in scan range planning.
“With … the Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition and Aquilion Serve SP, we are simplifying and streamlining CT workflow, making the scan experience for more efficient for patients and operators alike,” noted Naoki Sugihara, a vice president and general manager of the CT Systems Division at Canon Medical Systems.
Canon Medical Systems noted that both CT systems are pending 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Can Radiomics Bolster Low-Dose CT Prognostic Assessment for High-Risk Lung Adenocarcinoma?
December 16th 2024A CT-based radiomic model offered over 10 percent higher specificity and positive predictive value for high-risk lung adenocarcinoma in comparison to a radiographic model, according to external validation testing in a recent study.
Can AI Facilitate Single-Phase CT Acquisition for COPD Diagnosis and Staging?
December 12th 2024The authors of a new study found that deep learning assessment of single-phase CT scans provides comparable within-one stage accuracies to multiphase CT for detecting and staging chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Study Shows Merits of CTA-Derived Quantitative Flow Ratio in Predicting MACE
December 11th 2024For patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), researchers found that those with a normal CTA-derived quantitative flow ratio (CT-QFR) had a 22 percent higher MACE-free survival rate.
