Benefits

NAEOTOM Alpha.Prime enables clinical insights that conventional CT cannot, bringing proven photon-counting CT image quality to a wide range of cases.
Clinical cardiology images comparison of an EID-acquired computed tomography image and a photon-counting computed tomography image of a high-calcified patient.

Patients with high calcium scores can now be scanned with photon-counting CT and benefit from Quantum Technology cardiac imaging with reduced stack artifacts enabled by ZeeFree.

More about Quantum Technology
Clinical head-neck image visualizing fine details.

The unique 0.2 mm slice thickness of NAEOTOM Alpha.Prime with Quantum HD provides high accuracy in neurology and can help change patient diagnoses, from the assessment of stroke, aneurysm, CSF venous fistula (see images above), or the inner ear.

A patient is being prepared for a scan with NAEOTOM Alpha.Prime. The technician is supported by myExam Companion AI-powered workflows on the tablet.

Quantum Technology supports better visibility for tumor detection, characterization, and monitoring. Solutions for CT-guided interventions or Radiation therapy enable treatment planning, biopsies, or ablations.

A schematic overview of the myExam Companion pathway.

myExam Companion delivers intelligent imaging with individually guided scans that optimize procedures to help leverage the full potential of the scanner. Automated AI-driven workflow solutions enable a faster workflow and utilize zero-click Recon&GO to create the desired clinical operation.
