One room. One system.
Many possibilities.
With a streamlined workflow in a single setting, you no longer need to transfer the patient between rooms, improving patient care and boosting productivity. Switch easily between CT and angiography systems to diagnose, treat or verify. Across a wide range of clinical applications Alphenix 4D CT offers more possibilities to deliver safer, better treatment to your patients.

Presenting the latest Alphenix 4D CT technology.
Integrated to boost productivity and patient care
Greater than the sum of two parts. Canon Medical’s Aquilion CT imaging suite and Alphenix angiography systems work in concert to provide real improvements in efficiency, workflow and clinical confidence. The unique SUREGuidance feature synchronizes positional data of the region of interest between modalities. The CT gantry, the C-arm and the table move automatically to do the rest. 3D roadmapping to superimpose CT-derived 3D images onto the fluoro image allows you to navigate during the angio procedure with greater confidence and accuracy.
Quickly diagnose, treat and verify with confidence
Speed is crucial. Capture robust diagnostic images in a fraction of a second, minimizing dose exposure, reducing artifacts and shortening procedure time. With Alphenix 4D CT there is no need to transfer the patient between rooms to confirm device placement or procedural success, so unnecessary procedures can be eliminated and efficiency improved.
The freedom to move with your workflow
Alphenix’s ceiling-mounted C-arm offers an unprecedented range of movement, allowing you to position the C-arm to suit your workflow. Its unique lateral fingertip-to-fingertip coverage aids transradial procedures. With the CT gantry fully parked the C-arm provides fast, head-to-toe access from any position. When both the CT gantry and C-arm are parked, you have 360-degree access to the table when you need it.
Outstanding image quality with
advanced dose management
Aquilion ONE’s wide detector technology can acquire 16 cm coverage in a single split-second rotation. High-quality morphological and functional 4D imaging supports your treatment workflow, simplifying the positioning of needles or guiding catheter embolization procedures.
Comprehensive dose management benefits patients and clinical staff
Alphenix 4D CT systems bring together an extensive range of hardware features and software tools all designed to deliver outstanding image quality with minimal dose exposure. In CT, advanced technologies help simplify complex protocols, reduce exposure time and use less contrast. In angiography, Spot Fluoro significantly reduces patient dose and scatter radiation offering greater protection for the patient and clinical staff. Enhanced dose tracking tools allow real-time peak skin dose monitoring and archiving. This monitoring and visualization of dose allows the operator to choose a different approach during a long procedure to avoid regions where dose thresholds have been exceeded.
