64-slice CT Scan


A quick summary of the new features of our new CT scan are as follow,


Faster and clearer image acquisition
- 64 row quantum detector with its 57,344 elements facilitated isotropic data acquisition utilizing 0.5mm thin slices through the whole body, thus giving unsurpassed image clarity.
- High speed 35Omillisecond scanning offer unsurpassed image quality at the fastest speed.    It allows visualization of the heart and entire coronary tree within one breath.  Apart from cardiac scanning, there are also other specialized applications for trauma scanning, pediatric scanning, orthopedic scanning and vascular scanning.

Safer with lower radiation dose
- Reduced radiation scanning dose Real time exposure control automatically adjust the tube current to the patient body habitus to reduce dose maintaining good image quality.
- Up to 40%o radiation dose reduction compare with conventional scanner.

Specialized functions
- Cardiac scanning soft wares (sure-cardio / sure-cardio scoring / phaseXact). The entire heart can be scan in a few heart beats.
- 3D CTA of the cardiac arteries and arterial vascular system assured through the high speed data collection using 64 detector row.
- CT-DSA(digital subtraction angiogram) soft ware automatically digital subtract intra and extra cranial vessels from bone.
- Dental analysis - comprehensive dental MPR soft ware with easy to use tools for pre-operative planning.
- Cerebral blood perfusion study - brain blood flow characteristics are analyzed from dynamic scan images and the results are displaced as color map images.
- High performance VITREA 2 workstation offer detailed reconstructing MPR / MPI / 3D images of anatomy and pathology to support disease detection.
