Driving CT innovations 
with the power of AIYou think ahead. We innovate ahead.

Radiology departments are dealing with an ever-increasing workload1 while at the same time rates of remuneration are declining and competition is increasing. These pressures translate into less time for scanning and reporting – and this means staff are more likely to make errors.2

Our CT portfolio harnesses the power of AI and automation to relieve you of repetitive tasks and optimize your imaging workflow from start to finish. Based on 20 years of experience in AI development, we are providing you with solutions that simplify examinations while at the same time supporting diagnostic precision and optimal quality.

myNeedle Companion: for simplified routine and complex procedures 

CT-guided interventions are becoming increasingly common as an alternative to surgery. The number of cancer ablation therapies is in fact expected to grow by around 9% per year between 2023 and 2040.4 However, interventional approaches require high levels of precision and can be time-consuming.

myNeedle Companion simplifies percutaneous procedures thanks to convenient planning options and needle insertion guidance, supported by an AI-based needle detection algorithm. myNeedle Detection reduces user interaction when controlling the position of the needle to help you improve operational efficiency and patient centricity.
