The Somatom Definition AS+ is the worlds first CT scanner that adapts to virtually any patient, offers clinicians unprecedented information and provides each person with significant radiation protection, setting a new benchmark in lowering the radiation exposure to the patient.
The system will provide for almost any kind of diagnostic imaging exam, including vessel imaging, cardiac tests and cancer staging, on any type of patient and according to the needs of the patient. The speed of the scanner is faster than the human heart producing spectacular images.
