Fast and efficient routine scanning
SOMATOM go.Up delivers the low-dose scanning that is essential for optimal patient care. It allows scans of long ranges at the speed of a breath-hold while maintaining a high spatial resolution.


A key aim of the overall SOMATOM go. concept was to minimize your initial cost of investment. The result is a system that makes a Siemens Healthineers CT scanner more affordable than ever. In addition, the scanner components and underlying software algorithms were specifically chosen for reliability, remote serviceability, and extended tube lifetime.

Flexible room concept

  • Save on valuable space by having scanner and workstation in one single room. By using the unique “niche” concept, for example, customers can position the console in the same room as the scanner while being perfectly safe from radiation. Thus, they can stay longer with their patients and solve any positioning problems quickly.
  • Thanks to gantry-integrated computers, you no longer need to invest in a separate control room.
  • Alternative: position the workstation outside the room or opt for the traditional control room setup
Siemens Healthineers - CT scanner - SOMATOM go.Up - Reliable Components

Reliable components

  • Equipped with durable components that deliver outstanding reliability to keep the scanner running smoothly for longer
  • Experts from the Siemens Healthineers Support Center provide ad hoc support whenever needed and quickly help identify and resolve any issues that might occur via Siemens Remote Service
  • Chronon® tube features a highly robust design and 8.75 MHU equivalent anode heat capacity with SAFIRE. The Chronon tube is built to surpass the performance of its predecessor.
