Hitachi Medical Systems America has announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance to market two new CT scanners within its Scenaria platform: Scenaria SE 64 and Scenaria SE 128.
The Scenaria SE scanners feature added capabilities for faster workflow and better ease of use, and they are compliant with the Smart Dose (XR-29) radiation dose reporting standard, Hitachi said.
Scenaria SE also has 40% faster standard reconstruction speed, up to 50 images per second, as well as faster reconstruction for multiplanar reformats (MPRs), with added automation of frequently used operator functions. The scanners also have an upgraded standard patient table weight capacity, up to 550 lb, for bariatric patient accommodation.
