OPTIMISING THE CLINICAL WORKFLOW

Astelion is designed to handle even the busiest workloads with ease. The system’s intuitive user interface guides you step by step through the examination with modern and easy-to-understand graphics and animations. A host of intelligent functions enable a fast and efficient workflow.

NAVIGATION MODE

Astelion offers unique navigation-mode operation that guides the operator through every step of the examination with state-of-the-art computer graphics and animation. Navigation mode is perfectly suited for novice users and part-time operators who may be required to perform scanning outside normal working hours, and enables all users to take advantage of the high performance of this multislice CT system.

FAST RECONSTRUCTION

A newly developed reconstruction system supports a reconstruction speed of up to 15 images per second, allowing rapid diagnosis and fast patient throughput.

MINIMUM SPACE – MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY

Astelion Footprint
MINIMAL SPACE REQUIREMENT

Delivering powerful performance in a small space, Astelion has been designed with a footprint of just 10.4 m2. Thanks in part to its flexible siting requirements, Astelion can be up and running in a remarkably short time.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY 
Canon is committed to the development and manufacture of environmentally conscious products. Comprehensive optimization of the energy consumption of all system components reduces overall system power requirements. By employing energy-saving techniques such as automatic control of the gantry fan, power consumption in standby status is reduced by 40% compared to conventional systems.

ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY
