DoseWise is active throughout every level of your CT system - from Tach Technology, to DoseRight to dedicated pediatric protocols and more.
It ensures Philips exploits every possible opportunity to reduce dose, while maintaining constant image quality.
For the multislice CT scanner family, DoseWise includes three highly effective strategies for dose management:
1. Smart Beam
In Philips multislice CT scanners, specific SmartBeam innovations have been developed to block-out X-rays that do not contribute to image quality. IntelliBeam filtration prevents unnecessary dose through absorption of unwanted X-rays. With Philips unique Tach technology directly converts the X-ray signal from the detector into a clear digital signal for consistent high image quality, while maximizing dose efficiency.
2. Less Time
Through Philips' DoseRight innovations, the best technique for each exam is calculated automatically. This ensures delivery of the lowest possible dose at the optimum image quality. With DoseRight automatic exposure controls, you can customize your image quality according to the noise level you prefer.
3. More Awareness
Through Philips-exclusive design elements - dedicated pediatric protocols and-, dose displays - DoseWise gives you easy-to-read information, keeping you aware of dose levels at all times. With the pediatric phantom, Philips is able to accurately reduce head doses in children by more then 20%, and body protocols by more then 60% - without sacrificing image quality.
