Cardiovascular disease is on the rise. In fact, one person dies every 37 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease.* With CT positioned as a first-line diagnostic tool addressing the evolving needs of cardiac imaging, your ability to deliver high quality, consistent CT studies is critical to outcomes. Your patients deserve the best technology available, and so do you. Canon Medical—the creator of one-beat cardiac CT—delivers.

Canon Medical has Every Heart Covered with AI-powered1, low-dose2 CT Cardiac imaging capabilities across our Aquilion Family of CT systems. Canon Medical’s range of SURECardio technologies has been designed to help you feel even more sure of your patient’s diagnosis with robust, automated AI–powered cardiac images.
1 Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) DLR.
2 Prospective gating scan mode available on the Aquilion Prime SP, Aquilion Exceed LB and the Aquilion ONE family of scanners.
3 Determined by scanogram.
4 Depending on the scan mode selected.
Canon Medical has harmonized Cardiac CT solutions featuring consistency in image quality, dose and patient care across the Aquilion CT Family. Based on the clinical application, Canon has a CT Cardiac platform to meet today’s needs.
1 Prospective gating scan mode available on the Aquilion Prime SP, Aquilion Exceed LB and the Aquilion ONE family of scanners.
2 CTA/CFA Modulated scan modes available.
Achieve super resolution imaging on wide-area CT by combining the ultra-high resolution benefits of the Aquilion Precision with the wide-area benefits of the Aquilion ONE platform, enabled by Precise IQ-Engine (PIQE).
*PIQE is designed to fully utilize the maximum resolution of the detector
*Available with the Aquilion ONE family of CT systems
Volumetric CACS
Volumetric CTA
Volumetric CTP
Coronaries, wall motion, ejection fraction and functional analysis in ONE heart beat.
*Available with the Aquilion ONE family of CT systems
Acquires a Cardiac CTA with volumetric temporal resolution and contrast uniformity in ONE 0.275 sec rotation of the gantry and within ONE heartbeat.
*Available with the Aquilion ONE family of CT systems
AMC is an adaptive motion correction algorithm that enhances the visibility of the coronary segments with motion.
Volume Arrhythmia detection will automatically adapt the scan protocol for unstable or higher heart rates, ensuring diagnostic image quality.
Improved image quality.
Canon Medical Systems' SEMAR (Single Energy Metal Artifact Reduction) utilizes a reconstruction technique to reduce metallic artifact, improving visualization of implants, supporting bone and the adjacent soft tissues for a clearer and more confident diagnosis.
Prospective, automated for higher heart rates.
Wide volume scanning allows for large anatomical areas (greater than 16 cm) to be covered quickly and to be reconstructed and reviewed in one image data set.
The ability to scan multiple vascular territories with CT is used to plan complex interventional procedures like TAVI or TAVR, where gating is needed through the heart and not through the abdominal aorta and femoral arteries.
Ultra-Helical CTA Aorta for access and valve placement planning.
vHP 3-Phase* allows three scans to be performed in a single acquisition, seamlessly transitioning between scan parameters optimized for each body region. vHP 3-Phase has potential for less contrast media** and lower radiation dose by providing the flexibility to seamlessly transition:
*Available on Aquilion ONE / GENESIS SP, Aquilion Prime SP and Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition.
**Optimization of contrast usage is only recommended within the dosing ranges that appear in approved iodinated contrast drug labeling.
