The system features four core proprietary Fujifilm technologies, including HiMAR Plus (High image quality Metal Artifact Reduction), Intelli IPV, SynergyDrive, and IntelliODM; these technologies enhance the sharpness of images, streamline workflow through AI automation, and significantly reduce patient dose, the company said.
To streamline technologist workflow, the system captures 60 images per second and uses Fujifilm’s SynergyDrive technology to automate, simplify, and accelerate the scanning process. SynergyDrive helps streamline the entire image capture process, assisting with automating the positioning of the patient inside the CT system, mapping imaging parameters on where to scan, and scanning and archiving the images, Fujifilm added.
