RSNA Show Preview RADIOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF NORTH AMERICA Aquilion ONE Images Entire Organ in One Rotation At RSNA 2008, Toshiba will showcase its Aquilion ONE, a dynamic volume CT system that can scan an entire organ, including the heart or brain, in a single rotation because it covers up to 16 cm of anatomy using 320 ultra high resolution 0.5 mm detector elements. The company will also showcase clinical cases from U.S. hospitals that have used the system. The system allows clinicians to see a three-dimensional depiction of an organ as well as the organ’s dynamic blood flow and function. Capturing the organ in a single rotation at one moment in time eliminates the need to reconstruct slices from multiple points in time.
