Patient- and operator-centered design

By putting both the patient and the operator at the center of every design decision, a better experience can be achieved with faster, more comfortable scans, and a more streamlined workflow.

A patient-centric design

The Cartesion Prime PET-CT is designed to address many aspects of the patient experience that focuses on comfort during the scan process.

The scanner includes a wide 78 cm bore with a flared design, as well as a wide patient couch that creates a more open and comfortable environment. With a low minimum scanner bed height patients will be able to more easily and safely navigate getting on and off the scanner bed when assistance is needed.

An operator-centric design

Cumulative radiation risks and throughput issues are among the challenges that operators face when performing imaging procedures.

Cartesion Prime incorporates a variety of functions based on technologies that were developed for the high-end Aquilion Prime SP CT scanner to significantly help reduce exposure dose to the operator.
