Better patient care, improved efficiency, expanded applications.
Smart Technologies is a suite of intelligent CT tools designed to help you achieve these goals,
delivering diagnostic confidence with lower levels of radiation1.
SmartStep™
allows for quick acquisition of axial images to support CT guidance using a simple foot pedal and remote control.
SmartView™
designed to provide real-time CT fluoroscopy with less than 200 ms image latency.
SmartView 3D
provides 3D visualization of the needle and needle tip automatically to give more confidence and precision with a simple, fast workflow.
SmartView 3D integrates the technology to streamline complicated procedures and improve the visualization of the needle and lesion, all while reducing dose to both the physician and patient. The result: a new sense of confidence and efficiency in interventions.
Intelligent technology designed to help you acquire high-quality images using lower doses of radiation, contributing to more accurate diagnoses and lower exposures for patients.
GE Healthcare can help you build a strategic roadmap for a comprehensive radiation dose management program encompassing leadership, practices and technology. An effective dose management program balances priorities across the entire hospital system from operational, clinical, risk mitigation, to reporting needs.
kV Assist - tailored protocols for each patient, clinical indication and each scan area.
ASiR1 - the industry’s first iterative reconstruction product with an estimated 30 million patients imaged since 20082.
ASiR-V1 - our most recent reconstruction technology is designed to deliver reduced noise levels, improve low-contrast detectability and routinely reduce dose up to 82% for patients of all ages2.
Veo1 - the world’s first model-based, iterative reconstruction product providing imaging under 1mSv with profound clarity2. Available as an option on Revolution HD.
Organ Dose Modulation - automatically reduces dose for superficial tissues such as the eyes and anterior chest, creating a virtual shield for sensitive anatomy.
3D Dose Modulation utilizing SmartmA automatic dose modulation and AutomA - allows you to personalize protocols and optimize dose for every patient - large and small.
Dose Reporting - provides access to the CTDIvol and DLP with the patient record prior and post exam. DICOM Structured Dose Report is also supported.
Dose Check - provides prospective dose alerts and warnings if pre-determined dose levels will be exceeded.
CT 4Kids - Dose-optimized, procedure based protocols for pediatric imaging provide more options for ensuring balanced radiation dose and image quality for specific pediatric applications.
DoseWatch1 - a web-based patient radiation dose monitoring software used to capture, track and report radiation dose directly from any imaging device or PACS. DoseWatch is multi-modality and vendor agnostic.
Systems designed to help you improve productivity by streamlining user workflow and access to information.
Enabling technology includes: SmartmA, AutomA, kV Assist, GSI Assist, SnapShot1 Assist, Xtream Display.
Smart Metal Artifact Reduction (MAR) - our innovative, projection-based method delivers exceptional CT image quality.
Dynamic Transition - allows the scan phase to start automatically when the HU of the transition ROI reaches the desired enhancement threshold.
One Stop Scanning Mode - provides a streamlined workflow on the Xtream Display such as "Patient selection","Protocol selection" and "Confirm." Pre-scanning can be accomplished in as few as five touches.
AWE Connect - direct access to AW server post-processing software.
Default Patient Positioning - automatic one-step positioning, reducing manual positioning and streamlining workflow.
Inventive technology that assists you in quickly setting up complex cardiac procedures reliably and repeatedly.
SnapShot1 Assist - designed to enable successful cardiac acquisitions the first time.
SnapShot1 Freeze - helps significantly reduce coronary motion, transcending the limits of a hardware only system.
SnapShot1 Pulse - allows you to perform low dose imaging of the coronary arteries and structures that are near the heart and may be affected by cardiac motion.
Innovative technology that helps you make spectral imaging routine by assisting you in setting up these advanced procedures.
GSI Assist - tailored GSI protocols for each patient and each indication with seamless user workflow.
GSI Viewer 3D - leverages routine post-processing capabilities (volume rendering, segmentation, vessel analysis) for improved visualization of spectral information.
1. Not all Smart Technologies are available on all products. Ask a GE Healthcare sales representative for details.
2. In clinical practice, the use of ASiR, ASiR-V and Veo may reduce CT patient dose depending on the clinical task, patient size, anatomical location and clinical practice. A consultation with a radiologist and a physicist should be made to determine the appropriate dose to obtain diagnostic image quality for the particular clinical task. ASiR-V low contrast detectability (LCD), image noise, spatial resolution and artifact were assessed using reference factory protocols comparing ASiR-V and FBP. The LCD measured in 0.625 mm slices and tested for both head and body modes using the MITA CT IQ Phantom (CCT183, The Phantom Laboratory), using model observer method.
