Our iterative reconstruction method, Intelli IPV*1, provides images which maintain their natural texture even at high noise reduction rates and their excellent visibility even at low doses, and does not require a dedicated operation room or additional hardware.
Furthermore, by applying a low dose, the anode heat capacity is equivalent to 45 MHU (converted value).
- *1 IPV stands for Iterative Progressive reconstruction with Visual modeling.
- *2 Scanning the lung field
While adjusting the texture at a uniform ratio from high frequency to low frequency, the physical properties that affect visibility are made as close as possible to FBP.
The Visual Model is a technology that controls image noise and image quality by iterative processing based on statistical model, object model, and physics model.
Object Model
Models morphological information changes to control the size, shape and position of a structure.
Physics Model
The Physics Model is a technology that uses FBP as a model and reduces noise while adjusting the texture from high frequencies to low frequencies at a uniform ratio, achieving a texture close to that of FBP.
Statistical Model
Noise reduction is performed by statistically evaluating X-ray-derived noise and circuit system noise.
Intelli IPV significantly reduces noise and improves low-contrast detectability while maintaining image texture quality especially in the head region where low-contrast detectability is important.
The tube current is continuously modulated in 3D direction to obtain an image that achieves the target SD. When modulating the tube current, it is possible to set scanning conditions that optimize not only conventional iterative processing but also Intelli IPV characteristics.
Examination time is greatly reduced by optimizing the workflow during scanning.
The operator's workflow has been improved by shortening time-consuming procedures.

- Postprocessing
The operator is required to perform various tasks in scanning and image processing.
"Study Tab" allows you to switch worksheets for up to 3 patients simultaneously, like flipping pages.
"Navigation Tab" allows you to freely move from scanning to image processing within the same worksheet. Tab switching contributes to a stress-free operator environment.
- Study Tab:"Study Tab"allows easy switching through each patient worksheet.
- Navigation Tab:"Navigation Tab" allows easy switching between imaging and image processing of the same patient.

Since the patient table moves laterally up to 200mm (+/-100mm), off-set regions such as the heart and shoulders can be easily positioned at the center of the FOV, improving examination efficiency.

Aperture 800mm
800mm wide gantry aperture and smooth shape of the gantry opening enable easy access to the patient.
SCENARIA View can automatically set the scanning range using the scanogram image. The operator can adjust the range manually, if necessary. AutoPose supports several reference lines setting, such as OM Line (Orbitomeatal base line), SM Line (Superior orbitomeatal line) and RB Line (Reid’s base line), for head scanning. Additionally, since the limits can be set in advance, the scan range can be customized according to the preference of the facility.
