Deep Learning Reconstruction
See through the noise
The Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE), a revoluntary approach to CT reconstruction, uses Deep Learning to distinguish true signal from noise to deliver sharp, clear and distinct images at speed. Trained using vast amounts of high-quality image data, AiCE provides enhanced anatomical resolution across the whole body¹ including brain, lung, cardiac and musculoskeletal systems.
AiCE deep learning reconstruction images feature:
- Our best low-contrast resolution, ever ¹,³
- Dose neutral industry-leading ultra-high resolution²
- Improved low-contrast detectability, noise and spatial resolution relative to hybrid iterative reconstruction
- Image noise texture more similar to FBP compared to MBIR reconstruction³
- Fast reconstruction
- Easy workflow
¹1.5mm @ 0.3%, 22 mGy
²Aquilion Precision, Dose neutral between Ultra-high resolution mode with AiCE and normal resolution mode with hybrid iterative reconstruction

Deep Learning Spectral
World's first Spectral Deep Learning reconstruction
16 cm Wide-Area
Spectral CT
An extensive suite of
Spectral analysis applications1
Full Spectral Transformation
The advantage of Deep Learning Spectral reconstruction is it's ability to transform multi-energy raw data sets into two full high and low energy separated sinograms. This provides excellent energy separation for Spectral analysis with the high resolution and low noise properties you would expect from a routine diagnostic CT exam.
¹In combination with Vitrea® Advanced&Visualization
CT Guided Interventions
Simple and Streamlined
Optimize interventional procedures with our new hybrid CT touch-panel interface for CT guided interventions that enables one-handed operation thanks to ergonomically designed controls and a versatile touchscreen tablet.
Plus, with Canon Medical's iterative reconstruction you now have real-time access to the high-quality low-dose images.
Every heart, Covered
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.
*Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Super Resolution* Cardiac CT
A new standard in cardiac clarity
Overcome the challenges of coronary artery visualization in stents and heavily calcified vessels by combining the power of one-beat cardiac and AI enhanced image sharpness with PIQE. PIQE super resolution* deep learning reconstruction delivers sharp cardiac images without compromising on noise, temporal resolution or dose.
*PIQE is designed to fully utilize the maximum resolution of the detector

SilverBeam
Details of a CT at the dose on the order of an x-ray exam
SilverBeam combined with Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) DLR enabling ultra low dose lung cancer screening CTs with doses on the order of a chest x-ray examination.
SilverBeam, a beam shaping energy filter, leverages the photo-attenuating properties of silver to selectively remove low energy photons from a polychromatic x-ray beam leaving an energy spectrum optimized for lung cancer screening.
Effective Dose 0.3 mSv

Variable Helical Pitch with three phases (vHP3)¹
Enables multiple specialized studies within a single scan.
vHP 3-Phase¹ 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 media² and lower radiation dose by providing the flexibility to seamlessly transition:
- Between ECG Gating on and off during a cardiac scan
- Between dose and image quality during a CAP scan
- Between fast and detailed pitch during a trauma scan
¹Available on Aquilion ONE / GENESIS SP, Aquilion ONE / PRISM Edition, and Aquilion Prime SP
²Optimization of contrast usage is only recommended within the dosing ranges that appear in approved iodinated contrast drug labeling.
Patient Centric Design
- A unique flared gantry providing a calming, wide-open space for a better¹ patient experience
- Improved access to your patients from the front and rear of the gantry
- Providing safer care during trauma and interventional procedures
