This is achieved by facilitating optimum image quality even in the most challenging cases across all medical fields. An ability to generate diagnostic results regardless of a patient’s age, size, weight, physical condition, and even the surrounding circumstances directly translates into more informed decisions, and, therefore, into improved patient outcomes. Siemens Dual Source CT has redefined what CT can do – and helped to improve diagnostic confidence in healthcare institutions across the globe. Improved image quality without additional dose burden? Yes, DS. Increased system sensitivity and specificity? Yes, DS. Lower radiation doses and greatly reduced prep- time? Scan coverage and speed raised to new levels? All new protocols enabled and perfusion CT coming to daily clinical routine? Yes, yes, and yes, DS. From the precision needed in dynamic perfusion exams in oncology, to the strength and speed necessary for low-dose, whole-body CT without breath-hold. From total reliability in acute care cases, to excellent results and sound treatment support in cardiology and quantitative myocardial perfusion – Dual Source CT is the CT of choice across the disciplines. Excellent diagnostic imaging for all patients? Yes, DS. CT without compromises. siemens.com/YesDS RADBOOK 201621
