Provincial Government<br />
Complex, is very pleased with the new technology. “This CT Scan<br />
boosts with AIDR-3D Integrated Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction<br />
works together with Sure Exposure 3D on the system. This ensures that<br />
the best image quality will always be achieved, with the least possible<br />
radiation exposure to the patient according to the ALARA principle.<br />
This CT Scan system not only modulates MA but also boasts Sure KV<br />
and modulates it according to the patient size.”<br />
One of the greatest challenges in computed tomography is the<br />
interpretation of routine scans in patients with metallic implants.<br />
The artefacts caused by the presence of metal can severely obscure<br />
nearby structures, making clinical diagnosis difficult or even impossible.<br />
Toshiba’s innovative SEMAR (Single-Energy Metal Artefact Reduction)<br />
overcomes this. Its high technology employs a sophisticated<br />
reconstruction algorithm to eliminate artefacts caused by metal<br />
while improving visualisation of<br />
the implants, its supporting bone<br />
and adjacent soft tissues for an<br />
accurate diagnosis.<br />
“We are sure this new CT Scan<br />
system will not only improve the<br />
workflow and reduce patient<br />
waiting lists, but also offer additional<br />
examinations like Cardiac CT, CT<br />
Colonography and CT Digital<br />
Subtraction Angiography,” said<br />
