High end multislice CT machine, capable for producing 500 slices in a second (in shuttle mode). Advanced 5 beat cardiac CT scan machine
SALIENT FEATURES
Equipped with ASIR reconstruction algorithm, to significantly reduce radiation dose.
Neuro DSA – for DSA like images for brain vascular malformations.
Metal artifact reduction software – for diagnosing infection / union status / implant loosening.
Dynamic CT scan for CV junction anomaly.
APPLICATIONS
CT coronary angiography : for detecting narrowing in coronary arteries.
CT cardiac angiography : for diagnosing and classifying congenital cardiac malformations.
CT pulmonary angiography : for pulmonary thrombo-ebolism and pulmonary hypertension.
CT aortic angiography : for aneurysm, dissection, co-arctation.
CT TAVI planning : CT prior to planning for transcutaneous aortic valve implantation.
CT head and neck angiography : for detecting narrowing in carotid arteries.
CT brain angiography : for aneurysms / vascular malformations ; with metal artifact reduction : can be done post coiling / clipping to look for recurrent / residual aneurysm.
CT upper limb angiography : with special protocol for thoracic outlet syndrome.
CT lower limb angiography : for detecting narrowing in lower limb arteries.
HRCT temporal bone : for diseases of middle ear and inner ear ; evaluation prior to cochlear implant.
CT Paranasal sinuses : for diagnosing paranasal sinus diseases and to look for anatomical variations.
HRCT lung : special protocol for interstitial lung disease including prone scan and expiratory scan.
CT neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis – to diagnose tumors, infection, etc.
CT KUB / Urography – to stones, tumors related to kidneys / urinary tract.
Onco-imaging – RECIST 1.1 criteria used to follow up solid tumors.
