Deliver personalized patient care
FlowMotion™ technology enables acquisition of PET images with a continuous motion of the patient table. This is different from the conventional method where PET images are acquired with sequential bed positions, alternating between image acquisition and patient table motion.
FlowMotion continuous bed motion scanning enables:
- Personalized exam protocols based on patient anatomy
- Definition up to four distinct scanning regions, each with a different bed speed
- High-resolution reconstructions and respiratory gating
- Simple protocol setup so the technologist can spend more time with the patient
Reduce CT exposure
Planning scans with conventional, sequential bed positions may lead to CT over scanning to cover the desired scan range. Since FlowMotion allows easy anatomy-based planning, only the desired area is scanned, enabling you to minimize CT dose and help maximize efficiency.
Provide an optimal patient and user experience
Patients undergoing a stop-and-go exam sense when a scan is not progressing, which may make the scan seem longer and cause patient motion and discomfort. FlowMotion technology’s bed motion gives the patient a continuous sense of progression and improves exam satisfaction.
