Imaging under 1mSv
The benefits of dose reduction are significant, especially
for the most radiosensitive patients — including pediatric
cases and young women. Veo may also provide the
opportunity to dramatically reduce cumulative dose in
patients who require regular follow-up exams.

“Veo allowed us to scan a chest CT at 0.06 mSv with
readable images where pathology could be analyzed.
With Veo, we can conduct lower dose CT scans in
children, and this is particularly important in groups
that require continued follow-up, such as those with
cystic fibrosis or lymphoma.”
