Aquilion Precision Couch Technology

Canon Aquilion Precision

Provides More than Twice the Resolution of Today’s CT Systems

Canon Aquilion Precision is the world’s first Ultra-High Resolution CT (UHR CT) capable of resolving anatomy as small as 150 microns,  and providing CT image quality with resolution typically seen only in cath labs. The UHR detector is newly designed to provide more than twice the resolution when compared with today’s CT technology, with an all-new detector as well as tube, gantry and reconstruction technologies.
