Reconstruction speed

Feature Specification
Reconstruction speed (enhanced console) Up to 100 IPS

Precise Image
Precise Image is a recon mode that uses a convolutional neural network to generate noise reduction images.
It provides better low contrast detectability and lower noise using reduced dose compared with standard FBP
reconstruction mode.

iDose4
iDose4 improves image quality* through artifact prevention and increased spatial resolution at low dose.

O-MAR
O-MAR reduces artifacts caused by large orthopedic implants.

Cone Beam Reconstruction Algorithm – COBRA

Philips patented Cone Beam Reconstruction Algorithm (COBRA) enables true three-dimensional data acquisition
and reconstruction in both axial and helical spiral scanning.

ClearRay reconstruction
A revolutionary solution pre-computes and stores beam hardening in a database later referenced to create a
correction that is personalized to each individual patient.
As a fully three-dimensional technique, contrast scale stability is preserved across different patient sizes, image
uniformity is improved, and organ boundaries are better visualized.

Adaptive filtering
Adaptive filters reduce pattern noise (streaks) in non-homogenous bodies, improving overall image quality.

Adaptive multi-cycle reconstruction

Image data can be prospectively gated or retrospectively tagged. Adaptive multi-cycle reconstruction automatically
delivers the best temporal resolution possible for the current scan (as high as 44 ms**).

Reconstruction field of view

50 to 500 mm

Image matrix
512 x 512 • 768 x 768 • 1,024 x 1,024

Off-line reconstruction
Off-line (batch) background image reconstruction of user-defined groups of raw data files with automatic image
storage.

DoseWise

Philips DoseWise is a holistic approach to dose management that is active in every level of product design. It
encompasses a set of techniques, programs and practices based on the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably
Achievable) principle and supports outstanding image quality at low dose.

1. DoseRight Index
 DoseRight Index (DRI) is a single number used to specify the image quality required for the diagnostic task at
hand. DRI includes organ-specific DRI for the liver and the head and neck to provide appropriate dose and
image quality within a single acquisition.
2. CT Dose Check
Supports an operator notification in each exam card that will be shown if an acquisition is planned that exceeds
a specified CTDIvol or DLP. In addition, an alert is available such that, if an acquisition is planned and the total
exam will exceed a specified CTDIvol or DLP, the operator will be required to enter his or her name and (if
configured) a password to proceed, or the operator can adjust the scan parameters. Compliant with NEMA XR-
25 and XR-29.
3. DICOM structured reporting and IHE REM profile
DICOM radiation dose structured report that can be transferred to external systems such as HIS/RIS, PACS, or
dose registries.
4. 3D-DOM
3D-DOM combines angular and longitudinal information to modulate dose in three dimensions. Personalizes
dose for each patient by automatically suggesting tube current settings according to the estimated patient
diameter in the scan region. Angular dose modulation varies the tube current during helical scans according to
changes in patient shape (eccentricity) and tissue attenuation as the tube rotates. For each rotation, projections
are processed to determine the maximum and minimum patient diameter. The tube current for the next rotation
is then modulated between these limits.
5. Dedicated pediatric protocols
Age- and weight-based pediatric protocols produce diagnostic images at a minimum dose according to patient
age for head scans, and patient weight for body scans.
6. Dose display and reports
Philips CT scanners include intuitive reporting and recording of estimated dose indices, dose reduction, and
dose efficiency. Dose estimates are displayed on the operator’s console for all scan protocols prior to and
throughout the examination. Volume computed tomography dose index (CTDIvol) and dose-length product
(DLP) are automatically updated as the operator plans the scan. Also, a dose report may be included as a
DICOM dose structured report and/or DICOM secondary capture with the reconstructed data set.
7. Dose performance data

CTDIvol Measurement
Head 14.07 mGy/100 mAs
Body 8.11 mGy/100 mAs

Measured on head and body CTDI phantoms (IEC 60601-2-44 ed. 3) at 120 kVp.

Clinical enhancements

1. Direct results
End-to-end workflow with clinical intelligence for direct and comprehensive clinical results, optimal image quality
and consistency.
2. Precise Planning
Precise Planning can automatically adjust the scan range of subsequent axial or helical scan series based on
the surview image – a convenient assistant for you to set scan range. Precise Planning supports head, lung, L-
spine disc, C-spine (for helical protocol), liver, pelvis, femur head and heart, lung screening, chest/abdomen
 combination scan, and CAP (chest, abdomen, pelvis) scan mode.
3. Precise Spine
Precise Spine provides preset batch results and automatic spine labeling of the lumbar, thoracic and cervical
spine for optimal workflow efficiency and clinical consistency.
4. Precise Brain
An important practice of Direct Results, with preset protocols defining expected batch results of brain for
optimal workflow efficiency and clinical consistency.
5. Split study
Allows automatic split of the exam series into separate exams based on the procedure descriptions.
6. Bolus tracking
An automated injection planning technique to monitor actual contrast enhancement and initiate scanning at a
predetermined level.
7. Spiral Auto Start (SAS)
Spiral Auto Start allows the injector to communicate with the scanner. This allows the technologist to monitor
the contrast injection and to start the scan (with a predetermined delay) while in the scan room.

scans for accurate and reproducible calcium scoring studies, and is used to quantify the buildup of calcium
plaque on the walls of the patient’s coronary arteries and other relevant locations. The potential calcifications
are highlighted by the application during launch. As you mark calcifications, the application accumulates the
calcium data and calculates the patient’s calcium score based on a scoring protocol. A compare function allows
you to evaluate scoring results from two studies of the same patient – the original and a follow-up.
1. Cardiac Plus package
Designed to allow basic cardiovascular imaging of the heart. Includes Retrospective Tagging, Calcium
Scoring Acquisition, Cardiac Calcium Scoring Analysis, Cardiac Coronary Artery Analysis and Cardiac
Function Analysis.
2. Precise Cardiac

pre-defined range around a reference phase by using overlapped short-scan data volumes.
3. Step & Shoot Complete*
Enables low-dose, prospectively ECG-triggered, axial thoracic imaging. Allows gated, isotropic imaging of
the entire thorax (up to 50 cm trans-axial field of view), including the coronary arteries. Ideal for patients
with heart rates below 70 bpm.
10. Precise Position** +
 Supports automatic patient positioning for enhanced user workflow and inter-operator consistency.
Automatically displays the recommended vertical position and start and end positions, in addition to the
selection of patient orientation on both the gantry panel and console. Via the smart load button, the system
places the couch at the recommended vertical height and start position.
* Standard on the Premium Configuration. Optional on all other configurations.
** Precise Position is optional on the Essentials and standard for all other configurations.
+ Patients below the age of 18 are not supported.
Optional
11. Brain Perfusion
Allows the physician to differentiate areas of increased blood volume and decreased blood flow and presents
information that may help to distinguish between still-viable and non-viable infarcted tissue. Using serial CT
scans obtained with intravenous injection of contrast, Brain Perfusion derives perfusion information from the
time-density curves based on the uptake of injected contrast material and subsequent tissue enhancement.
The application generates quantitative color maps of cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV),
mean transit time (MTT) and time-to-peak (TTP).
12. Neuro Essentials
Provides up to 80 mm of organ coverage for perfusion studies. An axial scan is taken in one location, the couch
translates to another location within a few seconds, and another axial scan is taken. These multiple data sets
are registered automatically to provide the extended coverage.
