Spectral Clinical Gallery
Innovate. Illuminate. Initiate.
The Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition's 16 cm wide area detector significantly improves your ability to obtain high-quality images for routine and advanced studies. With just one rotation, you can acquire an entire heart or a neonatal chest, in a fraction of a second—all with less dose and great z-axis temporal uniformity.
*In combination with Vitrea® Advanced Visualization.
Optimize Iodinated Contrast
Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition
Patient with low GFR required low injected contrast volume.
Spectral enables improved Iodine opacification at low keV. Hence, the ability to optimize iodinated contrast media usage.1
1 Optimization of contrast usage is only recommended within the dosing ranges that appear in approved iodinated contrast drug labeling.
