21 High definition imaging at up to 230 micron resolution Up to 47% improvement in cardiac resolution Up to 50% dose reduction, with improved image quality Spectral imaging and functional imaging (101 selectable spectral energy images) Gemstone detector to produce sharper and brighter images Up to 500 slices of 4D dynamic coverage Faster scintillator enables higher resolution Produces 2.5 times more views per rotation, improving overall resolution Improved signal with reduced noise from the Volara HD digital DAS Featuring a Performix HD tube which enhances resolution through dynamic control Familiar Xtream interface with more power and capabilities to meet increasingly demanding clinical challenges 2.1mSv

22 Lifecycle benefits Key performance drivers matched to specific clinical needs now and in the future Compatible with the Extended Brilliance Workspace and Portal Server Advanced applications to fuel tomorrow s research discoveries Essence and Intelligent technologies Proprietary X-ray tube, detector, and reconstruction advancements Revolutionary AirGlide Gantry for whisper-quiet performance NanoPanel 3D spherical detectors with unique ClearRay Collimator for resolution up to 24 lp/cm Scalable imrc X-ray tube and generator system improve image quality in patients with higher BMIs and in cardiac imaging RapidView Reconstruction with quad-core processors and Fast Preview Mode DoseWise Eclipse DoseRight Collimator IntelliBeam Filtration Step & Shoot Cardiac Dedicated Pediatric Protocols 1-2mSv

23 Toshiba s signature Aquilion Series CT Systems All our Aquilion CT systems feature the benefits of Toshiba s Quantum Advantage, resulting in the industry s best image quality, whatever the choice, from 4 to 64 to 320 slices. * 0.5mm slice * 350 micron isotropic resolution * 2mm low contrast resolution * 32mm volume coverage Using the same detector platform, Aquilion are the only CT systems on the market that offer the choice between high speed image acquisition (up to 16cm width per rotation) and high resolution with either 4, 8, 16 32, 64 or 320 x 0.5mm per rotation. In addition, by a wide variety of dose control tools enable clinicians to minimise radiation exposure to both patients and staff up to 80 percent compared to previous scanners. 3-5mSv

24 Split-second thorax Scanning the thorax incl. the heart needs 0.6 s, taking the burden of breath-holding off the patient and allowing functional imaging for body regions up to 48 cm. Sub-mSv heart Temporal resolution of 75 ms and scan speed of up to 43 cm/s make heart-scanning without beta-blockers possible and for the first time breath-hold optional with dose levels <1 msv. Single dose Dual Energy With the Selective Photon Shield Dual Energy scans are now dose neutral. Together with dramatically increased energy separation and a wide range of FDA-cleared applications, it s now perfect for routine clinical use. Organ-sensitive dose protection The SOMATOM Definition Flash prevents clinically irrelevant dose for spiral examinations and introduces for the first time organ-sensitive dose protection. 0.9mSv
