Aquilion Prime SP
Providing the best care to all of your patients should be simple. That is why Aquilion Prime SP is designed the way imaging technology should be—with the ability to scan more patients and offer a better CT experience.
Ankle Fracture Fixation, AiCE, SEMAR
Aquilion Prime SP
AiCE DLR combined with SEMAR for post-operative evaluation of ankle with internal fixation, demonstrating excellent visualization of implant, bone and adjoining soft-tissue through significant artifact and noise reduction.

Left Hip Replacement
Aquilion Prime SP
84-year-old female, CT of the Pelvis was performed post hip replacement surgery. AIDR 3D, Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction and SEMAR, Single Energy Metal Artifact Reduction were integrated into the scan protocol, the images were automatically reconstructed and transferred to the final destination. The Multiplanar Reconstruction (MPR) demonstrate a left hip prosthesis. The comparison images show reduced metal artifact in the SEMAR reconstruction.
