Toshiba Aquilion Prime 40 Slice

• Fast Reconstruction
With a reconstruction speed of up to 60 fps*, all images are
available shortly after scanning, even when scanned with
Toshiba’s unique 0.5 mm slice thickness.
• 78 cm gantry aperture
The gantry has a 78 cm aperture, the largest available in
a high-end CT system. In combination with 300 kg couch*,
this makes it possible to perform scanning easily,
even in patients who are difficult to position,
such as emergency or bariatric patients.
• SUREXtension
SUREXtension* provides access to Toshiba’s powerful
post processing applications from the personal computer like
thin client. CT datasets can be viewed and analyzed at
your computer anywhere on the network.
With the additional display console and SUREXtension*.
Aquilion PRIME provides a cost-effective post processing solution.
• Body Perfusion*
Body perfusion* software analyzes the blood perfusion of
an organ from dynamic scan images. The perfusion application
can provide additional information for the diagnosis,
treatment and follow up of lesions.
• Lung Volume Analysis*
Lung volume analysis* automatically identifies tissues in
the lung fields with a CT number lower than
the specified value (regions of pulmonary emphysema)
for visualization and analysis.
• Dual Energy*
Dual-energy helical scanning alternates between high and
low kV with each gantry rotation. The mA is also
automatically adjusted for the two different energies to
ensure a matched signal to noise ration which increases the
accuracy of dual energy* analysis. In addition,
Aquilion PRIME automatically turns X-ray exposure off as
the X-ray tube passes the front of the patient,
thus minimizing exposure to radiosensitive organs such as
the breasts and eye lens.
