Cinematic Rendering adds clarity to the location of a detected lung nodule. The visualization makes it easy for the referring physician to get a clear picture of the nodule location within the lung.

The AI-Rad Companion Chest CT automatically recognizes coronary calcium, calculates its volume, and creates an enhanced clinical image including quantification of the heart volume. This additional information about a cardiac condition is valuable clinical knowledge to a routine Chest CT study.

This 3D overview of the thoracic aorta has been automatically created by the AI-Rad Companion Chest CT. It includes the measurement of relevant diameters, based on medical guidelines and detected anatomical landmarks. This clearly shows how the AI-Rad Companion Chest CT can support the increase of accuracy of your reporting.

The AI-Rad Companion Chest CT has automatically created this measurement of the aorta based on a non-contrast enhanced CT image.

On this image you can see how the height of the vertebrae bodies is measured and compared. The AI-Rad Companion Chest CT automatically processes these measurements and marks abnormalities with easy-to-understand color-coding. Deviations are highlighted, while bone density is reported in Hounsfield Units.

The new functionality Pulmonary Density automatically identifies and quantifies hyperdense areas of the lung using non-contrast enhanced chest CT’s. The opacity score helps to assess the percentage of affected lung tissue.

Certain parts of the pulmonary density functionality¹ of AI-Rad Companion Chest CT were used in the prototype Siemens Healthineers offered to fight COVID-19, to analyze ground-glass opacities and consolidations. High opacity abnormalities were shown to correlate with lungs of COVID-19 patients.

For this sub mSv CT examination the Tin Filter technology is used.
