Transforming Diagnostics with advanced technology
At M&D Radiology, located within Johannesburg Surgical Hospital, we are committed to delivering the highest standard of diagnostic precision. As South Africa’s first radiology facility to offer the Siemens Dual Source Dual Energy (DSDE) CT Scanner, we set a new benchmark in advanced medical imaging, speed, and patient safety.
This revolutionary CT Scanner enables superior tissue differentiation, faster scan times, and reduced radiation exposure, improving clinical efficiency and patient outcomes.
What Makes the Siemens DSDE CT Scanner Unique?
Dual Source Dual Energy Technology: A Game-Changer in Imaging
The Siemens DSDE CT Scanner features two X-ray sources and detectors operating at different energy levels simultaneously. This dual-energy functionality captures two datasets concurrently, each with distinct kV and mA settings, providing:
- Superior tissue differentiation, ideal for complex cases.
- Enhanced image quality without requiring additional contrast scans.
- Advanced diagnostic capabilities for oncology, cardiology, and pulmonary assessments.
Unlike traditional CT Scanners, this innovative approach improves precision, reduces scan times, and enhances clinical efficiency.
Unmatched Benefits for Patients
Superior Diagnostic Accuracy
The Siemens DSDE CT Scanner captures spectral data at two energy levels, providing:
- Highly detailed tissue composition insights, distinguishing between iodine, bone, and soft tissues.
- Virtual non-contrast imaging, eliminating unnecessary radiation exposure.
- Optimized detection of cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions, ensuring faster interventions.
Industry-Leading Scan Speeds
This CT Scanner is ideal for emergency situations, where time-sensitive diagnostics are crucial:
- High-speed imaging captures large areas without compromising quality.
- Perfect for trauma cases or critically ill patients who struggle to remain still.
- Minimized motion artifacts, improving scan clarity.
Reduced Radiation Exposure for Safety
At M&D Radiology, patient safety is paramount. The Siemens DSDE CT Scanner incorporates dose-reduction technologies, including the Admire iterative reconstruction algorithm, ensuring:
- Lower radiation doses without sacrificing image resolution.
- Optimized imaging for sensitive cases, such as pediatric and oncology patients.
- Enhanced contrast visibility, requiring minimal radiation exposure.
