Facilitate scanner operation

“The use of protocols and radiation dose varies greatly,” studies1) that analyzed millions of CT examinations worldwide showed. And this is not because of the equipment characteristics, but mainly because of the choices of the individual users.

Changes in patient expectations, technological development, and digitalization create challenging situations for healthcare providers. But the CT imaging market also holds many opportunities. You can profit, for example, by improving the diagnostic experience for patients and your work experience. Or by opening new reimbursement opportunities in advanced clinical fields.

To help you thrive, we have developed a family of CT scanners that helps you improve the patient experience and puts patients into the focus of care delivery: the SOMATOM® go.platform comprises the CT scanners SOMATOM go.Now, SOMATOM go.Up, SOMATOM go.All, and SOMATOM go.Top – as well as our dedicated radiotherapy CT scanners SOMATOM go.Sim and SOMATOM go.Open Pro.

Did you know that the SOMATOM go.platform originates from the medical community? It was co-created with 500 of our customers, from CEOs to the wonderful people who care for patients every single day. Based on their input, our engineers built the CT platform – and designed it specifically to overcome the obstacles associated with acquiring, operating, and maintaining a CT scanner.

Enhance possibilities

With myExam Companion, the SOMATOM go.platform offers intelligent imaging that works with you. Whether routine or advanced CT applications, it smartly and intuitively guides users and supports them in unlocking the system’s full potential automatically – independent of their level of experience.

The SOMATOM go.platform introduces an entirely new approach to operating a CT scanner. Built around a Mobile Workflow, it features a line-up of innovative solutions, including a tablet and remote control. Experience an unparalleled level of flexibility, mobility, and patient-friendliness in daily CT procedures.

Try the SOMATOM go. workflow simulator, featuring a guided tour of our tablet-based workflow. You’ll get tips throughout that highlight the unique features built into the tablet interface. The intent of this simulation is to showcase how mobile workflow elements can enhance exam consistency, reduce exam set up time, and help technologists to stay closer to the patient.

Fast 3D camera

The FAST 3D Camera helps your team provide first-time-right scans, manage tight schedules, and potentially examine more patients. It captures the patient’s shape, position, and height in three dimensions. Using infrared measurement, it even recognizes body contours. This is particularly useful, for example, when patients are wearing thicker clothes.

The SOMATOM go.platform features intuitive solutions that address your workflow not only at the scanner but also beyond. GO technologies reduce repetitive workflow steps, help standardize & simplify all departmental processes.


The SOMATOM go.platform allows you to cover a broad range of clinical fields. Built on intuitive technologies and workflows, it enables all users to provide the best scan for every patient – no matter the clinical demands and challenges in routine examinations such as oncology and orthopedic exams. Additionally, all SOMATOM go. CT scanners feature dedicated solutions for safe and easy CT-guided interventions. Some members of the SOMATOM go. family also offer great capabilities in acute care or cardiac CT, for example.


Niche setup of CT scanner
Niche setup in the examination room

All CT scanners of the SOMATOM go.platform come with low installation costs. Thanks to gantry-integrated computers and a flexible room concept, you no longer need to invest in a separate control room. Whatever concept you will choose, you are fully protected while the X-ray is on.

And once you are up and running, we will not leave you alone. Beyond the initial investment, there are recurring operational costs affecting your bottom line. The SOMATOM go.platform is well equipped to help you with them as well. At the core of their design the scanners of the platform enable lower electrical consumption compared to previous models4) and may even allow for reduction of the contrast media using the High Power technology.
