A better balance between image quality and dose – from the youngest to the largest
PUREViSION Optics
PUREViSION Optics provides significantly improved imaging efficiency from photon generation to detection. An optimized beam spectrum combined with a more efficient detector result in a better balance between image quality and dose.
PUREViSION Optics transforms routine CT imaging to new levels of image detail and low contrast detectability with up to 31% less dose.*

*A non-prewhitening model observer study was conducted comparing Aquilion ONE / GENESIS Edition to Aquilion ONE. Maximum dose reduction values were established by comparing low contrast detectability under baseline conditions for abdominal and brain examination based on the detectability index performance metric, a measure of signal to noise that takes into account the magnitude and texture of both the signal and the noise for a given LCD task.
Aquilion ONE / GENESIS Edition’s 320 row PUREViSION detector with industry-leading 0.5 mm element size delivers sharp isotropic images with a boost of 40% more light output.
Patient-specific beam shaping filters provide an optimized X-ray spectrum and more homogenous distribution, improving low contrast detectability by up to 18% for body imaging and up to 22% for brain imaging as shown by a model observer study.*

One rotation is all it takes
ONE Rotation Scanning
GENESIS Edition’s 16 cm wide area detector signicantly improves your ability to obtain high-quality images for routine and advanced studies. One rotation is all it takes to acquire a whole heart, a neonatal chest, a foot or an ankle exam – in a fraction of a second with less dose and great z-axis uniformity.
Changing clinical pathways
Dynamic Functional Imaging
Adding dynamic functional imaging to morphology can provide valuable further insights, helping you to optimize disease management and treatment plans. Advanced perfusion maps can assist in diagnosis and therapy response verification of stroke or tumors, while dynamic joint studies help identify causes of pain or immobility.
