NAEOTOM Alpha

This computed tomography system is intended to generate and process cross-sectional images of patients by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data.

The images delivered by the system can be used by a trained staff as an aid in diagnosis and treatment as well as for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.

This CT system can be used for low dose lung cancer screening in high risk populations.*

*As defined by professional medical societies. Please refer to clinical literature, including the results of the National Lung Screening Trial (N Engl J Med 2011; 365:395-409) and subsequent literature, for further information.

Scan& GO

This in-room scan application is a planning and information system designed to perform the necessary functions required for planning and controlling scans of supported SIEMENS CT scanners. It allows users to work in close proximity to the scanner.

The in-room scan application runs on standard information technology hardware and software, utilizing the standard information technology operating systems and user interface. Communication and data exchange are done using special protocols.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
