Using conventional CT, the limit for high-resolution images in cardiac CT is 0.6 mm slice thickness (without using comb filters). With NAEOTOM Alpha, this limit is pushed to 0.4 mm while retaining a remarkable temporal resolution of 66 ms and maintaining full dose efficiency – revealing impressive details in coronary vessels.

• Identify more details in coronary plaque evaluation  

With a slice thickness of 0.4 mm and an in-plane resolution of 0.24 mm in standard scan protocols, NAEOTOM Alpha provides an impressive level of detail at full dose efficiency.

• High resolution in all standard native protocols
• High resolution in all standard CT angiography protocols
• High level of detail for evaluating fine structures in all anatomical areas

With Quantum High Resolution scan mode, NAEOTOM Alpha delivers remarkable spatial resolution of 0.11 mm (in-plane) and a slice thickness of 0.2 mm.

• Unmatched resolution both in-plane and cross-plane to evaluate fine lesions and anatomical structures (e.g., pulmonary nodules, cerebral vessels, osseous structures)

Due to a contrast-to-noise ratio that is significantly higher than that of electron-integrating detectors, NAEOTOM Alpha improves visibility of anatomies enhanced by contrast media. Monoenergetic images can be used to further enhance the contrast.

• Visualize enhancement in fine anatomical structures
• Potentially reduce the amount of contrast media

The artifacts resulting from calcifications in arteries can make the evaluation of the true lumen of a vessel impossible. PURE Lumen removes these calcifications based on the spectral information contained in every voxel of the image.

• Evaluate even heavily calcified vessels
• Create virtual non-calcium maps
• Perform coronary CTA exams also in patients with high CaScore

The QuantaMax detector is able to completely eliminate electronic noise. This leads to improved signal-to-noise ratio, which can be utilized for significant dose reduction. At the same time, the scanner still delivers high resolution and spectral information in every scan.

• Noise-free images, even in low-dose applications
• Further reduce dose for screening and dose-sensitive patients
• Retrospective spectral evaluation of incidental findings in screening scans

As a Dual Source system, NAEOTOM Alpha scans at a maximum pitch of 3.2. Even at the highest scan speed, the system delivers results with full spectral imaging analysis options.

• Spectral imaging for high-pitch CTA exams
• Spectral imaging in patients who cannot hold their breath
• Spectral imaging in pediatric patients without sedation

As a Dual Source system, NAEOTOM Alpha provides a temporal resolution down to 66 ms. Offering the full range of spectral imaging evaluation at this speed paves the way for diagnostic procedures that were previously unthinkable.

• Spectral imaging for cardiac scans
• Evaluate coronary arteries and get spectral maps (e.g., iodine concentration) in the same scan

With NAEOTOM Alpha, spectral maps are available more detailed than ever before – down to a slice thickness of 0.4 mm. This enables functional evaluation with high precision.

• Detect fine lesions in the liver
• Evaluate spectral bone marrow edema
• Evaluate lung perfusion defects based on detailed iodine maps

Moving toward quantitative CT evaluation and radiomics, radiologists and referrers need to rely on the stability of their measurements. In contrast to conventional CT, photon-counting CT provides this stability.

• Rely on quantitative and reproducible HU measurements, even in low-dose scans

For every scan, NAEOTOM Alpha produces monoenergetic images that are independent of scan parameters. This allows radiologists to tailor exams to the needs of the patient without compromising on consistency and comparability.

• Analyze, evaluate, and compare scans using the ideal monoenergetic images for the clinical question at hand

AI-powered algorithms provide automatic post-processing of imaging datasets. Identifying and quantifying relevant anatomies and abnormalities, they put findings into a diagnostic context – and allow for a fast and accurate diagnosis.

Using the new possibilities of digitalization, myExam Companion guides operators through diagnostic procedures, so that they can interact easily and naturally with both patient and technology.

Accessible via tablet or workstation, GO technologies are a set of technologies that standardize and simplify all departmental processes – from patient setup to image distribution, archiving, and reading.
