Snapshot* Pulse
SnapShot Pulse mode is for low dose imaging of
the coronary arteries. SnapShot Pulse can also be
used to image structures that are near to the heart
and may be affected by heart motion such as
thoracic aorta’s or pulmonary arteries. Prospective
Gating based SnapShot Pulse achieves up to 83%
dose reduction compared to ECG gated helical
acquisition mode.
ASiR may help clinicians achieve dose reductions
of up to 40%. Customers using ASiR have
demonstrated excellent diagnostic image quality
at low dose across exam types and body regions.
