AIDAN platform
Intelligent imaging platform for PET/CT
AIDAN is our intelligent imaging platform for Biograph™ PET/CT scannersthat supports the demanding processing power of
AI-based solutions. Combined with the Biograph family of smart PET/CT scanners,
AIDAN accelerates operational efficiency and creates an elevated patient
workflow that generates more precise diagnoses and helps transform care
delivery. For molecular imaging professionals, AIDAN uses powerful artificial
intelligence to generate real impact.

Biograph PET/CT – with AIDAN
Finding solutions that improve diagnostic accuracy, enable an exceptional patient experience, and lift organizational performance is critical. Today, Biograph Horizon™, Biograph™, and Biograph Vision™ scanners continue to be at the forefront through artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled functionality made possible by AIDAN.
Leading the way with artificial intelligence
AIDAN is the result of 25 years of hardware and software innovations that enable next-generation solutions in oncology, cardiology, and neurology. We were the first to bring AI-powered applications to the scanner. With more than 40 AI offerings from over 700 machine- and deep-learning patents across Siemens Healthineers, we continue to lead the drive to bring new AI functionality to PET/CT.
ALPHA for innovative and smart molecular imaging applications
Automatic landmarking and parsing of human anatomy (ALPHA), a Siemens Healthineers proprietary technology, supports optimized workflows on both scanners and syngo.viareading solutions.
ALPHA can be used to recognize and infer anatomical patterns and consists of an algorithm to detect anatomical landmarks at its core. The algorithm is designed to mimic the human foveal vision system. The underlying technology is a multi-layered, machine-learning algorithm that has been trained using many expert-annotated images across modalities and uses three redundancy concepts to achieve robustness.
ALPHA technology reliably provides anatomical context and has been used to enrich applications on the AIDAN platform.

Artificial intelligence powered applications for Biograph PET/CT scanners
The AIDAN platform unlocks a host of advanced upgradable features:
FlowMotion™ AI standardizes protocols and personalizes scans through a dedicated AI algorithm that automatically defines ranges based on each patient’s unique anatomy.
With the click of a button, OncoFreeze™ AI delivers images free of motion without extended scan time or external devices.
FAST PET Workflow AI automates and simplifies image preparation and archiving.
Multiparametric PET Suite AI is the first fully integrated solution to provide additional parameters and enable absolute quantification compared to SUV alone.
The Biograph family of PET/CT scannersis enhanced with intelligent solutions that heighten the patient and user experience, optimize department workflow, and help improve clinical outcomes.
