ARTIS icono sets the pace in image guidance for complex interventions. Mechanical flexibility and positioning accuracy combine with 2k imaging and smart workflow guidance to redefine precision for interventional radiology.
Smart guidance tools support anatomical navigation and semi-automatic identification of feeder vessels, while seamless interfaces make your angio suite an inter-departmental digital lab.
Redefining precision in embolization
ARTIS icono ceiling gives you the confidence to perform precise and efficient embolizations, with clear visualization in super-selective procedures, effective 3D imaging in any body region, and smart guidance tools.
“ARTIS icono ceiling offers improved precision in image guidance. The fast and versatile 3D imaging can be easily adapted to our procedure-specific needs. The new image processing strives for high dose efficiency and brilliant 2k image quality. In my opinion, this system has the potential to be a game changer in IR.”

Our contrast-based exposure control OPTIQ delivers optimal contrast at lowest achievable dose* – for excellent visibility of small vessels and devices in 2D imaging. OPTIQ includes Structure Scout, which tunes the X-ray spectrum to best fit the absorption characteristics of the device material used.
OPTIQ DSA is designed to improve visibility in DSA images by likewise enhancing sharpness and contrast without increasing noise.
*Within the possible ARTIS exposure parameters and given hardware configuration as well as status of SID, collimation, and grid.

Generate 3D acquisitions with excellent spatial and soft tissue resolution whatever your clinical case. With 95°/s rotation speed, ARTIS icono systems can acquire syngo DynaCT images in just 2.5 seconds, which means fewer motion artifacts1.
Simple and precise 3D imaging gives you confidence in procedure planning. Intra-procedural syngo DynaCT can also help reduce the risk of unwanted side effects such as non-target embolization.
ARTIS icono ceiling combines these benefits through the Omni Spin C-arm for a high level of flexibility during interventional procedures. For more on Omni Spin, click right.

ARTIS icono ceiling is equipped with Omni Spin, optimizing flexibility, speed, and precision to enhance workflows and image quality across the full volume.
Omni Spin delivers accurate 3D acquisitions with high soft-tissue resolution and up to 2.4 meters of coverage from any rail positions – with full 200° rotation from all sides.

syngo DynaPBV Body
The ARTIS icono family is equipped with syngo DynaPBV Body, which complements anatomical imaging with physiological information. It enables 3D-based blood volume imaging, which helps determine the specific characteristics of each individual lesion and lets you observe how tumor perfusion changes as a result of your therapy.
This unique software can be used for monitoring response to treatment following repeated TACE and has the potential to identify non-responders directly in the angio suite.

ARTIS icono systems come with smart guidance tools, such as syngo Embolization Guidance, that assist you with semi-automatic identification of feeder vessels and anatomical navigation, for example when you are treating liver tumors (TAE, TACE, SIRT) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (PAE).
The semi-automatic detection of feeder vessels is possible for contrast enhanced syngo DyncaCT or MDCT datasets.

syngo Embolization Guidance
In treatment of liver tumors, syngo Embolization Guidance automatically detects a catheter that is positioned in a hepatic artery. It then automatically computes a vessel tree starting at the catheter position and comprising vessel branches that feed a user-defined lesion.*
Predefined color coding facilitates finding the optimal treatment position for each tumor nodule.
* The user must check the final vessel tree.

Redefining your procedure mix
The ARTIS icono family is specially designed to improve utilization across a broader range of procedures – now and well into the future.
ARTIS icono is available with an innovative, all-encompassing package of onboarding, interactive guidance, and consulting. ExpertGuidance is an equipment training program for efficient onboarding, workflow education, and interactive guidance during procedures. FlexForce Coach delivers comprehensive staff and performance consulting with experts from Siemens Healthineers. To ensure you make the most of your system’s advanced features, SmartSimulator provides courses in virtual classrooms with a human instructor.
Submillimeter accuracy allows you to move the Omni Spin C-arm into pre-defined positions to re-use DSA or roadmap masks. The result? A reduction in dose and contrast media. Omni Spin provides 200° of rotation from the side, 2.4 meters of longitudinal coverage, and faster syngo Dyna CT acquisitions1 – allowing you to have the flexibility you need to easily perform a broad range of procedures.

ARTIS icono floor has a multi-axis stand and fully automated motorized positioning system that quickly moves the system into reproducible positions to give you optimal patient access for any interventional procedure, as well as space for other equipment and team members. Lateral coverage of 1.9 m supports radial access, dialysis shunts, and more. 2.1 m of longitudinal coverage enables peripheral 2D imaging without repositioning the patient. Furthermore, the parking position is distant, which is ideal in emergencies.

ARTIS icono systems allow you to interact with advanced external applications such as third-party software and with medical engineering researchers, directly from the angio suite. Integration is seamless with different systems all connected using a single third-party interface (TPI) and standard protocols.
The training simulator Mentice VIST® G5 Virtual Patient is a classic example. Simply connect Mentice to your ARTIS icono via the TPI to practice your skills on realistic simulations of your system’s controls, including C-arm movements, table positioning, and imaging parameters.
The ARTIS icono family responds to the demands of every discipline and room size. No matter which stand type you choose, you benefit from first-class image quality for a broad range of procedures in interventional radiology.
“The system has brilliant image quality. For example, if you want to see liver arteries or the lower extremity arteries in detail, you can see the small arteries very nicely. And the system is very silent which is quite nice for the Interventional Radiologist trying to keep his mind on the patient.”

“All our patients benefit from this new precision, both advanced-stage and – more and more – early-stage patients. We are selective but also comprehensive. We save healthy liver tissue but also treat the whole tumor. We should never forget about the quality of life of our patients. This is why precision – less side effects – is so important.“
Prof. Bernhard Meyer, MD, Hannover Medical School, Germany
"The DynaCT images I’ve seen so far are brilliant, even in patients who can't hold their breath. And with DynaCT come a lot of other exciting breakthrough applications in IR such as Needle Guidance, syngo Fusion, Embolization Guidance and so on; and these are very important tools which have a huge impact on the workflow in IR.”
