Transforming
Your CT Solution
Aquilion ONE GENESIS Edition can help you improve your emergency department.
Each year trauma accounts for 41 million emergency department visits.1 These patient demographics are what you as healthcare providers are seeing in your Emergency Departments every year. Aquilion ONE GENESIS is built to help you triage these patients fast and move them thru your Emergency Department.

Assess the whole body in one scan
Overall faster scan times make vHP3 compliant to the needs of the patient, and shorten exam times for trauma imaging when every second is critical. A single series reconstruction enables several studies to be interpreted simultaneously for faster reading.
- May decrease radiation dose to the patient
- May decrease the amount of IV contrast needed
- May improve the workflow for complex clinical exams
FIRST (MBIR)1 LCD
Help Clinicians Possibly Diagnose Early Stroke Sooner
In the United States stroke symptoms account for up to 3.7 million visits to hospitals and the Emergency Departments. Stroke is a leading cause of death in the United States, killing 130,000 American each year.2 FIRST Low Contrast Detectability (LCD) has the ability to improve low contrast detectability in a routine non-contrast brain scan by up to 101%.3

The right balance of image quality and dose for every patient, from the youngest to the largest
PUREViSION Optics
PUREViSION Optics allows the x-ray spectrum to be optimized for low dose and high image quality scanning and the possibility to use lower kv or lower energy scanning.
- Optimized x-ray spectrum, with the ability to provide up to 40% better use the photons and better light output
- Filtered low energy photons allowing for a more homogenous spectrum improves image quality and lower dose to patients
SUREPosition
Helps reduce rescans in time critical situations
- Accurately center and position the patient by scan plan GUI
- Up-Down
- Left-Right (option with Tech Assist Lateral Slide)
- Scanning in iso-center for optimal image quality
- System generates new (virtual) scanogram—never repeat scanogram
