Bringing the capabilities of artificial intelligence to molecular imaging, Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine, Canon Medical Systems USA Inc.’s Deep Learning Reconstruction technology, is now U.S. FDA 510(k) cleared on the Cartesion Prime Digital PET/CT system.
“The addition of AIDAN to the Siemens Healthineers Biograph PET/CT portfolio represents a significant advancement in AI application at the scanner level,” says John Khoury, vice president of the molecular imaging business at Siemens Healthineers North America.
A proof-of-concept investigation, published in the March issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine, reports that 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT provides high-contrast images with quality equal to or better than that of the standard 18F-FDG imaging.

Read MoreThe U.S. FDA has cleared the Biograph Vision, a new PET/CT system from Siemens Healthineers that delivers advanced precision in PET/CT imaging. The Biograph Vision features new Optiso Ultra Dynamic Range Detector Technology, which is based on silicon photomultipliers, rather than the photomultiplier tubes that have been the industry standard.
