Canon Medical's Aquilion Precision brings true ultra-high-resolution CT to clinical practice with a 0.25mm detector, half the slice thickness of conventional 64-slice systems.
The system's 1024 × 1024 reconstruction matrix and dedicated UHR detector enable visualisation of sub-millimetre vasculature, fine cortical bone architecture and small-vessel pathology not resolved on standard CT.
AiCE deep learning reconstruction compensates for the noise penalty of UHR imaging, restoring diagnostic confidence at standard dose levels.
Clinical applications span cardiac (small-vessel CTA, stent imaging), neuro (perforator imaging), MSK (trabecular detail) and oncology (small-lesion characterisation).
