What is it indicated for?

The SOMATOM Plus 4 with Sliding Gantry Option is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angels or spiral planes* taken at different angles. (*spiral planes: the axial planes resulted from the continuous rotation of detectors and x-ray tube, and the simultaneous movement of the sliding gantry.)

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