Press Release11 December 2013Surat Siemens installs SOMATOM Perspective 128 slice CT scanner at SRL Diagnostics-Speedscans, Surat First installation of 128 slice CT scanner in Surat. Improved patient safety with innovative low radiation dose features. Improved patient comfort with faster scans, reduced breath hold and Moodlight. Allows routine imaging and advanced clinical applications for Trauma, Cardiac and Neurovascular. Siemens Healthcare Sector installed SOMATOM Perspective CT Scanner at SRL Diagnostics-Speedscans, which is the first installation of a 128 slice CT scanner in Surat. The city of Surat, famous for its textile market, is witnessing increasing occurrences of lifestyle diseases. Timely and accurate diagnosis thus becomes a significant step towards choosing the mode of treatment. With Siemens’ SOMATOM Perspective, SRL Diagnostics-Speedscans is identifying and diagnosing the most challenging diseases and clinical conditions being faced by people of Surat today. SOMATOM Perspective is a single source 128 slice CT scanner that integrates innovative technologies designed to cover routine imaging to advanced applications in Trauma, Cardiac and Neurovascular imaging. Sanjay David, Business Head-CT Scanners, Siemens Healthcare India, elaborates, "Siemens has always been on the forefront of introducing innovative CT scanners in India. SOMATOM Perspective is another such example. At Siemens, we believe in the principle of ALARA As Low As Reasonably Achievable, in dealing responsibly with X-ray based computed tomography, so there are a host of low dose features available in this scanner to ensure the same." Dr. Uday M Surana, Consultant Radiologist and Center Head, SRL Diagnostics-Speedscans, explains, "With SOMATOM Perspective, we are increasingly scanning patients with family history of cardiac/lifestyle diseases, who do not show any symptoms of these ailments. In such cases, the scanner has been supporting us in providing necessary details that help us counsel patients appropriately. Low dose features, ergonomics like wide bore, Moodlight, etc. increase patient safety and comfort."The 70 centimeter wide bore of the scanner increases patient comfort, especially in scanning obese and trauma patients. The ergonomic design ensures easy access for interventions like CT guided biopsy. The addition of Moodlight on the side of the scanner promotes a sense of well being and provides a source of relaxation for children and anxious patients. This 128 slice scanner has a unique low dose feature called SAFIRE Sinogram Affirmed Iterative Reconstruction, which is also the world’s first raw-data based iterative reconstruction that helps achieve dose reduction of up to 60% for all organs and all types of patients obese, children or old patients. Other features like Ultra Fast Ceramics UFC, Care Dose4D and CARE Bolus ensure high quality scans at lowest radiation. The increased number of slices enables scanning of up to 50 centimeters in 5 seconds at an ultrahigh resolution. This means that the time the patient holds his breath during the scan is very low. This is especially useful for very sick and elderly patients. Rapid full-body trauma imaging is possible without compromising on the image quality. Overall, a faster scan translates to speedy diagnosis and shorter waiting time for patients and the rising trend in lifestyle diseases, Cardiac CT has shown significant benefit in the work-up of patients with high risk of cardiac diseases. Cardiac CT also plays a major role in the follow-up of patients who have undergone cardiac procedures. SOMATOM Perspective’s 128 slice configuration has been designed to perform Cardiac CT imaging. Designed to be energy efficient, this 128 slice CT scanner has significantly reduced power consumption and contributes to energy more information on SOMATOM Perspective please visit Contact PR20190910199en MDCT Scan What is MDCT Scan and 128 Slice CT Scan? Computed tomography CT scan is a safe, painless, non-invasive test that uses a series of X-rays and a computer to produce images of a cross-section of your body and a 3D image of soft tissues and bones. Sometimes, a contrast agent called a dye, may be used as an Oral/ Intravenous/ Enema, depending on the type of CT scan and reason for the scan, to improve the images by highlighting certain features. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour for the scan. When a patient passes through the CT scanner, the circular opening rotates and takes x-rays. Each rotation takes about a second. During the rotation, radiation beams are used to create an image of the patient’s body inside the circular opening. In single slice CT-scanners, only one image is produced per rotation. MDCT stands for Multidetector Computed Tomography, also known as multislice computed tomography MSCT. “Multidetector” refers to the number of CT sc detectors that are used to detect X-rays as they pass through the body. A 128-slice CT scan machine has 128 detectors, which allows it to acquire multiple images in one rotation. 128-slice CT Scanner Benefits As compared to 16 or 64-slice, the 128-slice CT scanner has more detectors that provide highly detailed imaging with higher resolution, superior quality and faster scanning speed.

If your CT scan uses dye or contrast, you may need to come with some specific preparation Blood test Creatinine report done no later than two weeks before. Diet restrictions You will need to watch what you eat and drink for four hours before your CT scan. Consuming only clear liquids helps prevent nausea when you receive the contrast dye. You can generally have tea or black coffee or strained fruit juices. If you are or might be pregnant, you should tell the CT technician to avoid exposing your baby to radiation. Who should undergo Cardiac CT? Patients at high risk for developing coronary artery disease – risk factors include high lipid levels, family history, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, stressful life, sedentary lifestyle. Post-bypass/ Stent assessment. Even if ECG, Echo, Stress test is relatively normal, major coronary artery disease can be present. Conventional catheter angiography needs hospitalization and it indicates if there is evidence of acute myocardial infarct changes on ECG or Ca score -> 400. What preparation is involved for Cardiac CT? Fasting for at least 2 to 4 hours before the procedure. Serum creatinine report done no later than two weeks before. Stabilization of heart rate with a beta-blocker. Bring all previous test reports including MRI, CT or any other papers. There should preferably be an accompanying friend or relative with the patient. What does the procedure involve? Once the heart rate is stabilized. A vein is cannulated. Breathing instructions are given so that the patient can hold his/her breath for about 5 seconds for the calcium scoring study. A non-ionic “dye” is injected and the coronary CT Angiogram study is performed. The scan time is about 5 seconds & the total on table procedure time is 15–20 minutes. The entire procedure takes about 60 minutes depending on the heart rate. Are there any dangers of CT Scanning? Though X-rays involve radiation, there are no dangers in practice. Contraindicated in pregnant women. CT coronary angiography with 128 Slice CT scan involves very little radiation to patients ranging approximately between 3-14 mSv. Inquiry Form MXR Imaging acquired Oxford Instrument Healthcare in May 202016, 64, 128 and 256 Slice CT Scanners - Assessing the Costs vs. BenefitsCost and Benefits of Various CT Scanner Slice OptionsCT scanners can be of great benefit to most healthcare providers due to their ability to capture high-resolution diagnostic images at a fast rate the scanner’s speed makes it a especially beneficial in the ER. However, CT scanners can be very expensive. They are complex machines, after all, which is why you'll want to carefully consider the different costs and benefits of the various types of CT scanners available on the Time To Buy a New CT Scan MachineThere are many different CT scanners to choose from with many different features to consider. The needs of your medical facility will help you know exactly what to look for in a CT scanner. The following are some of the important things to consider Image quality - The higher quality the images the CT scan captures are, the easier it will be to find and diagnose issues within the patient. This also means that the reverse is true-the lower quality the images are, the more difficult it may be to diagnose certain conditions, and the easier it will be to miss potential problems altogether. There are many factors that determine the image quality of a scanner, including the number of slices, the detector area coverage, the spatial resolution, and more. Patient volume - If you have a high patient volume, opt for a CT scanner with a wider area detector. Detector area coverage varies between scanners, even if they have the same number of slices. By choosing a system with a wider detector area, you'll be able to perform CT scans at a faster rate. Cardiac imaging needs - If you need a CT scanner to perform cardiac scans, a 64 slice system with a wider detector is essential to capture high-quality images while also maintaining an effective workflow. Patient safety - Although you can save money by purchasing older refurbished models, it's worth noting that newer CT scanners are capable of taking high-quality images with smaller doses of mSv. This is made possible through the use of more efficient detectors that capture photons. The use of iterative reconstructive software can also help to lower the dose while also improving image quality. Budget - If your budget was unlimited, you would obviously want to get the highest-end CT scanner available. Unfortunately, unlimited budgets are rarely the case. Beyond the initial cost of the CT scanner, you will also need to allocate a portion of your budget to the CT suite build-out as well as long-term maintenance and repair costs. You may find your choice of CT scanner is driven by budget constraints. Why Are CT Scanners So Expensive?The cost of a CT scanner is significant. This is because CT scanners are built using high-tech equipment and software. For example, CT scanners use X-Rays to capture and record images, which means that they need to use X-Ray tubes. Some X-Ray tubes cost upwards of $200,000 or more when the need to be replaced. Additionally, X-Ray tubes typically only last between 3 and 5 years depending on your patient throughput volume, eventually requiring replacement. It's why you need to budget for ongoing the spike in energy costs that will occur due to the amount of power needed to run a CT scanner, you will also need to pay for basic preventative maintenance, repairs, and replacements throughout its lifespan. On top of the initial cost of the CT scanner and the ongoing expense of maintaining it, you'll also have to pay to have the machine installed. Considering how big a CT scanner is and the specialized room it requires, the cost of installation can be quite Count Makes a DifferenceA "slice" refers to the individual tomographic or cross-sectional image that a CT scanner captures. Each slice is a 2-D image. However, CT scanners are capable of capturing multiple slices per rotation from different viewpoints of the patient. These images are combined to create a 3-D image. CT scanners come in more than 15 different slice configurations, from the basic one-slice CT scanner to the 640-slice CT Higher the Slice, the Higher the PriceThe more slices a CT scanner is capable of, the more expensive the machine will be. This is because the images it generates are much more detailed, making it easier to diagnose potentially difficult-to-identify conditions. High slice CT scanners tend to be faster as well. They cost more because they perform more work per Many Slices Do You Really Need?While, ideally, you would like to invest in a CT scanner with a high slice count, your budget may not allow for that. Fortunately, buying a CT scanner with a low slice count doesn't mean the machine itself is of low quality. In fact, many facilities do not need a high slice CT scanner. A 16-slice CT scanner can still capture high-resolution higher slice count tends to only be necessary if you have a high number of patients that need to be scanned on a daily basis since time is a factor in such cases. Higher slice count scanners are also beneficial for eliminating artifacts in cardiac imaging-but if you don't see a lot of patients with cardiac issues, you may not be able to justify the higher cost of a high slice CT scanner. Essentially, the slice count of your CT scanner should depend on what the needs of your facility CT Scanners vs. Traditional Lay DownStandard CT scanners require patients to lay down on their backs. They are then inserted through the bore into the gantry of the machine to be scanned. However, there are also CT scanners that allow the patient to simply stand or sit while being scanned. These standing CT scanners are less CT scanners are not quite as capable as some of the higher slice CT scanners, but they are smaller and use much less radiation. They are also perfect for capturing high-quality images of bone, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons as well as for seeing how foot, ankle, and knee joints respond while bearing weight. This makes standing CT scanners a great option for orthopedic ScannersAnother more affordable alternative to a regular CT scanner is a mobile scanner. Mobile CT scanners are installed in trailers that are parked outside the facility. This means that you don't have to worry about renovating existing space within your facility to accommodate your CT scanner and you won't have to pay for expensive installation costs. You will, however, need to have space available CT scanners can be a great alternative if you have multiple facilities in need of a CT scanner since you can share that scanner between facilities if they do not need daily CT scanning capabilities. You can also rent mobile CT scanners instead of purchasing them. This tends to be a lot cheaper over the short-term. However, long-term costs do add up. If you're renting a mobile CT scanner for years on end, it's eventually going to eclipse how much it would have cost to have bought a CT scanner ScannersIf you have a limited budget to work with but need a CT scanner for your facility, one option is to purchase a refurbished CT scanner. The term "refurbished" often has negative connotations; however, don't let that scare you away. It's not quite the same as buying something a CT scanner is refurbished following ISO 13485 certified quality assurance procedures, it goes through a lengthy process to ensure it is in excellent working condition before it is sold. Every component is inspected, repaired, adjusted, cleaned or replaced. The machine will be carefully cleaned, disinfected, and repainted. The system will then go through a final check in a patient simulated environment to receive a seal of refurbishing process means that a refurbished CT scanner will not be more likely to need repairs or replacements than a new CT scanner. Not only will a refurbished system be less expensive, it will come with the same type of warranty. The only real drawback is when it comes to shopping for refurbished CT scanners; you probably won't find any units that are less than a few years Do You Decide Which Machine is Right For You?As you can see, there are many things to consider when you purchase a CT scanner, but the two most important things to consider are your budget and your patient needs. Take into account both the initial costs of the CT scanner including the CT suite build-out as well as ongoing costs, such as repair and maintenance. Then determine what the needs of your practice are to figure out what type of CT scanner you need and how high of a slice count is are you won't have an unlimited budget, which means you'll need to justify the costs of purchasing a CT scanner. If you have very basic needs and won't be using your CT scanner that often due to a limited patient need, then your facility probably doesn't need a high slice count and could potentially do just fine with a refurbished Lindsey National Sales and Marketing ManagerMXR Imaging64 Union Way, Vacaville, CA 95687 Computed Tomography, or CT, refers to computerized imaging procedures where an x-ray beam is aimed towards the patient and rotated around the body, in order to create cross-sectional images of the body. The word “tomography” is derived from Greek for, “tomos” meaning section or slice and “graphe” meaning drawing. In referring to CT scanners, the word “slice” is often mentioned, but does it refer to? The term slice refers to the number of rows of detectors in the z-axis of a CT. For example, in an 8-slice CT, there are eight slices of data captured for each rotation of the gantry. The first CT scanners offered single slice CT SSCT images but now there are multiple-slice CT scanners MSCT. The limitation with using a SSCT was that the thinner slices requiring high image-quality were not achievable unless the region to be scanned was very restricted, leading to low-quality images. A solution to this issue was to utilize the x-ray beam, incorporating multiple rows of detectors, thereby collecting more than one slice at a time and reducing the number of rotations needed. This method also led to the development of MSCT technology. The primary difference in the hardware between the two methods is the design of the detector arrays. SSCT detector arrays are one dimensional, consisting of high numbers of detector elements in a single row, whereas the MSCT allows for each individual element to be divided into several smaller detector elements creating a 2-dimensional array. As seen in the image, as opposed to a singular row of detectors along the fan beam, there are multiple rows of detectors. The first scanner with more than one row of detectors was introduced by Elscint in 1992 and was called the CT-Twin. This scanner allowed data for 2 slices to be shown simultaneously; this addressed x-ray heating problems, and significantly reduced scanning time. Eventually, the first “modern” versions of MSCT scanners were developed and introduced in 1998 and simultaneously acquired 4 slices, which meant four detector rows corresponding to four data channels. In 2002, the first MSCT scanners providing16 slices were introduced. In the current market, the commonly available CT slice counts include 16, 32, 40, 64, and 128 slices, with less common ones providing up to 256 and 320 slice CT scanners. The 4 to 8 slice scanners are slowly being withdrawn from the market. When patients are put through the CT, the circular opening rotates to take a series of x-rays with each rotation taking approximately 1 second. Multiple slice CT scanners initially could take four separate images through each rotation, but technology has improved to the level that CT scanners can now take between 6 to 128 separate images in a singular rotation, meaning that it takes significantly less time to complete a CT scan. Different slice-counts for CT scans can be useful for many different scenarios. The majority of CT scanners can perform general imaging procedures, to include chest and head exams as well as multiple different body views to scan for any fractures. However, for cardiac procedures, higher slice counts are required to ensure optimum image quality. Multi-slice CT scanners have numerous advantages such as superior image quality and this can enable earlier diagnostic results. This essentially leads to shortening the diagnostic time for the patient, enhancing the treatment, and improving the patients’ long-term outcome. Radiation dosage is always a major concern when getting a CT scan, and with the higher slice CT systems, there is the additional benefit of reducing this dose. With technologies such as automatic exposure control AEC and iterative reconstruction IR, a patient scanned on a higher slice CT will receive significantly lower doses of radiation than a patient on a lower dose CT scanner. MSCT can improve overall patient experience as well. CT scanning is an inherently unsettling experience and now with the ability to capture images faster with multiple slice scanners, patients are able to spend less time on the table, and the scanner puts the images into physicians’ hands faster. MSCT also allows large anatomic body ranges to be scanned producing thin and thick sleeves; thick slices are important for primary interpretation, and thin slices are important for reducing partial-volume streaks and allowing for high quality 3-dimensional reconstructions. In summary, the higher the slice count, the faster the speed of the scan; a conventional single-slice CT scanner may take up to ten minutes to complete a scan whereas multi-slice scanners are able to do the job within seconds. Shortening the time for scanning is especially useful for the treatment of children or others who may find it difficult to lie in one position for an extended period of time. 16-slice CT scanners are the ideal machines for higher-use facilities and for everyday use, particularly where reducing scan time is important. It is a good fit for Urgent Care Centers and hospitals alike. However, 32 and 64 slice CT scanners are becoming standard for imaging centers and hospitals; the accuracy and speed make them very suitable for hospitals with higher patient throughput. These higher slice CT scanners provide longer coverage per gantry rotation than the 16 slice scanners and reduce the likelihood of motion artifacts, which can cause blurring or double images in scans. The BodyTom Elite from Neurologica, a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, is the world’s first mobile, full-body, 32-slice CT scanner, which incorporates the higher CT slice count as well as the portable aspect which allows for transporting the machine right to the patient’s bedsides for any procedures, as opposed to the traditional method of transporting patients to the radiology room. With the two combined, systems like this can save facilities valuable time and money. In conclusion, there are many advantages to the multiple slice CT scanners over the single slice scanners; these machines can increase the diagnostic capabilities of the scan, resulting in clearer images for the medical professionals, a diminished exposure of radiation for the patients, and better long-term outcomes. Multiple slice CT scanners will continue to evolve and grow as they have become a primary diagnostic imaging tool.
