SOMATOM Sensation 16

Computed Tomography System for MultiSlice Spiral Scanning

Designed for no compromises

Up to now, performance in CT has been limited by a series of compromises. Large volumes prohibited thin slices. Slow scans caused motion artifacts impairing image quality. We accepted the challenge to harmonize volume, speed and detail. Our solution: the SOMATOM Sensation 16 with volume scanning in isotropic detail. The SOMATOM Sensation 16 is a new benchmark in CT. It is designed to put an end to compromises.

New dimensions

The SOMATOM Sensation 16 makes existing procedures faster, more precise and more cost effective. Designed to be highly efficient and extremely reliable based on Siemens success and experience. Sensation 16 enables a whole new range of applications and it redefines the clinical role of CT scans. It heralds a new dimension in Computed Tomography.

Volume Scanning scanning

The SOMATOM Sensation 16 shortens the body scan time dramatically thus allowing for easier patient compliance, especially in breath-hold studies. Furthermore - partnered with SureViewTM and advanced cone beam reconstruction, 'Siemens' patented image processing system, and our SOMATOM WorkStreamTM concept it provides optimized image acquisition and outstanding image quality for all your imaging needs. In addition these partners will enable you to acquire and process volumetric data in isotropic resolution in an optimized manner.

Lower dose

SOMATOM Sensation 16 is especially efficient in terms of dose. Our aim is not to increase radiation exposure with increasing system performance. Sensation 16 takes another step forward and offers dose reduction and optimized dose utilization with the best possible image quality as a standard.
