GE Healthcare of Chalfont St. Giles, U.K., has launched a new line of CT scanners, called BrightSpeed, that include much of the technology available on GE's volume CT system, LightSpeed VCT, but in a smaller configuration.
The BrightSpeed line includes four-, eight-, and 16-slice CT systems, as well as GE's Volara digital data acquisition system (DAS) and the Xtream FX workflow platform.
The scanners have received U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance, and GE plans to debut the series at the RSNA 2005 conference. BrightSpeed is set for commercial release in early 2006.
