    Clinical Use

    Reinventing CT simulation with SOMATOM go.UP – a highly flexible, intuitive CT simulator that we designed in collaboration with over 300 RT specialists – radiation oncologists, medical physicists, dosimetrists, RTTs, and financial decision makers – to give us insights into your world. The result is a groundbreaking approach to CT simulation. It will give you everything you need to achieve the ultimate starting point for optimal RT planning, and will help you produce the most successful outcomes possible.

    Somatom go.Up - Standardized results

    New technologies and innovations are often not available for affordable CTs

    • Modern treatment techniques require precise RT planning but the latest solution might not be available for affordable CTs
    • Many patients have metal implants that can significantly impair image quality
    • Using one kV setting across the board will not deliver optimal image quality for every patient.
    • Precision for OAR contouring with AI-Rad Companion Organs RT.

    Poor image visualization effects the quality of contouring making results not suitable for precision treatment.

    • Precise target contouring with optimum kV imaging and a single calibration curve thanks to DirectDensity1
    • Confident tumor visualization thanks to automated metal artifact reduction with iMAR1
    • A straightforward 4D workflow thanks to comprehensive Respiratory Motion Management1

    60% of RT incidents are caused by manual operation and data exchange1

    • Successful CT simulation needs efficient and fail-safe workflows
      Different people process the data at different workstations during each stage of the process
    • Reproducible patient positioning in the treatment setup requires accurate patient marking
      Moving from station to station interrupts the simulation workflow

    The CT simulation workflow is cumbersome and error-prone.

    • Intuitive and guided CT simulation thanks to GO technologies
    • Seamless and less error-prone processes thanks to the new mobile workflow
    • A new patient-marking solution. GO with Green
