FlowMotion AI: An AIDAN TechnologyStandardize and personalize with AI
A one-size-fits all exam protocol is not ideal for achieving the best image quality and can negatively influence treatment decisions. A tailored approach, however, is more complex, and usually requires additional time. Now, with FlowMotion AI™, an AIDAN technology, it’s just a click. FlowMotion AI allows you to standardize imaging protocols for fast, reproducible results, personalized for each patient.
AIDAN: Built on a strong foundation
Our PET/CT scanners meet international security standards, from product development to finished design. Our priority is to secure your reputation and your patients’ health information.

Artificial Intelligence
The new Biograph AIDAN family of PET/CT scanners includes proprietary ALPHA technology to bring artificial intelligence to PET scanner operations, helping you to become more efficient, personalize your scans, and standardize your exams.
Standardize protocols and personalize scans with AI
FlowMotion AI technology enables continuous acquisition of PET images by implementing continuous bed motion at the patient table and with ALPHA technology. AI-driven disease based protocols intelligently adjust to the patient’s anatomy. This is different from conventional PET acquisition acquired with sequential bed positions, alternating between image acquisition and patient table motion (also known as step-and-shoot).
FlowMotion AI continuous PET acquisition enables:
- Simple and standardized protocol setup so technologists can spend more time on patient care and disinfection between patient exams
- Personalized exams by capitalizing on AI ALPHA-technology to automatically tailor protocols based on patient anatomy
- Integration of respiratory gating in clinical routine to improve small-lesion detectability in areas affected by motion
Reduce scanning dose
Planning scans with conventional, sequential bed positions may lead to CT over scanning to cover the desired scan range. Since FlowMotion AI 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.
