Automation:

Efficiency meets precision with the Scenaria View, a CT system designed to streamline your daily workflow through intelligent automation. By reducing manual inputs and simplifying complex procedures, this system allows your team to focus less on setup and more on patient care. The Scenaria View’s automated tools work cohesively to accelerate every step of the imaging process, from patient registration to final image reconstruction.

Simplify Patient Setup: Quick Entry Mode allows you to initiate a scanogram with just three clicks. The intuitive graphic interface reduces the time spent on registration and protocol selection, minimizing the risk of errors during setup.
Effortless Positioning: With One Button Positioning, a single touch moves the table into the exact position required, automatically setting the height and stop point based on the selected protocol.
Optimized Image Acquisition: AutoPose automatically adjusts the scan range based on the scanogram and site preferences, ensuring optimal acquisition every time. Additionally, the iTilt Scanogram feature generates previews of tilted images during the scan for immediate verification.
Rapid Results: High-speed image reconstruction at 60 ips allows for real-time checking, while parallel scanning acquisitions ensure that images are ready for interpretation without delay.
Seamless Data Transfer: Parallel Image Transmission automatically transfers reconstructed images to 3D workstations, speeding up the diagnostic process and facilitating faster patient care decisions.

Innovations built to last and perform:

Enhanced Visibility Around Metal: The HiMAR Plus system addresses the common challenge of metal artifacts in imaging. By utilizing iterative processing, it progressively reduces noise to reveal clear, detailed views of the anatomy surrounding metal implants or objects. This feature is adaptable to specific site preferences or applications, ensuring you get the most relevant data for every patient.
Powerful and Efficient Performance: At the core of the system lies a highly efficient X-ray generation unit. The 6MHU X-ray tube assembly, paired with a high-voltage generator, achieves a powerful 60kW output (maximum 670mA) while operating on a power supply capacity of just 75kVA. This balance of power and efficiency supports demanding scan protocols without compromising on stability.
Superior Image Resolution: The high sensitivity detector, powered by MaxiLight technology, captures high-resolution images with minimal noise. This technology allows for precise visualization of fine details while maintaining low power consumption, providing a sustainable solution without sacrificing image quality.

Advanced Image Quality and Dose Reduction:

Intelli IPV: Leveraging Fujifilm’s Vision Model iterative processing, this feature achieves significant dose reduction while maintaining high image quality. It preserves the natural, familiar texture of Filtered Back Projection (FBP) images, ensuring that visual noise reduction does not result in an artificial appearance, allowing for seamless clinical interpretation.

IntelliODM: Designed with patient sensitivity in mind, Intelligent Organ-based Tube Current Modulation actively reduces radiation dose to vulnerable tissues, such as the eyes, during scans. This targeted modulation minimizes exposure to sensitive organs while providing excellent image quality across the rest of the scan volume.

IntelliEC Plus: Fujifilm’s exclusive 3D mA modulation technology adjusts tube current dynamically in three directions throughout the scan. This feature offers real-time, automated dose reduction tailored specifically to the patient's anatomy. The result is consistent image quality with a constant noise standard deviation, ensuring optimal exposure for every individual.

Advanced Clinical Applications:

IntelliEC Cardiac:

IntelliEC Cardiac reduces dose using electrocardiogram information.

Automated Cardiac:

Protocol Selection: The system intelligently assists in selecting the optimal pre-scan protocols, reducing setup time and ensuring consistency regardless of the operator.
Optimized Image Retrieval: Post-scan, the software automatically identifies and selects the most diagnostic cardiac phase images, delivering immediate clinical value without the need for extensive manual review.
Versatile Acquisition Techniques: Featuring both available prospective step-and-shoot and retrospective dose-modulated ECG Gated acquisition, the system adapts to specific clinical needs to manage dose efficiency without compromising quality.
Expanded Patient Access: The advanced acquisition capabilities ensure high-quality study results are achievable for a wider variety of patients, maintaining diagnostic confidence even in challenging cases.

Cardio Harmony:

CardioHarmony enhances cardiac CT workflow by automatically** simplifying the process of phase selection, detecting and reconstructing cardiac phases with minimal motion.

Dual Energy Scan:

Dual Energy Scan is an optional function that performs normal scans at two different energy levels. This allows reconstructed images scanned using two energy levels in the same position within the scan range. Image sets are then transferred to a 3D Visualization server (supplied separately) for enhanced visualization, detection and characterization of tissue types, lesions and or contrast agents.

Interventional GuideShot:

Interventional GuideShot biopsy provides real-time image guidance and visualization tools to assist clinicians in accurately positioning instruments, such as needles or catheters. Physicians can perform biopsy procedures on a patient while observing the CT images on the monitor in the scanner room. This mode is particularly useful for interventional needle guidance during biopsies or targeted injections. GuideShot is a “snap-shot” imaging mode that reduces radiation dose for both the patient and physician compared to higher dose continuous CT Fluoro mode.

Advanced 3D Visualization:

Advanced 3D Visualization seamlessly interfaces with a wide range of optional Advanced 3D Visualization Server solutions. Additionally, Fujifilm offers Synapse 3D, our own industry leading vendor-neutral advanced visualization platform with over 50 clinical modules.
