DESCRIPTION
The Revolution ACT system, combined with GE’s advanced technologies, is setting new standards in CT imaging for diagnostic accuracy, patient safety, and operational efficiency. Designed to redefine CT’s potential, this system integrates the cutting-edge Clarity panel detector with the latest advancements in semiconductor and electronics technology. The Clarity panel detector provides a spatial resolution of 18lp/cm, delivering enhanced image quality and fine details, while reducing noise by up to 20%. This is achieved through an innovative DAS on Detector (DoD) design, which minimizes analog signal transmission length, resulting in faster response times and improved image clarity.
One of the key features of the Revolution ACT system is its utilization of ASiR (Adaptive Statistical Iterative Reconstruction) technology. ASiR offers ultra-low dose imaging across all anatomies, leveraging GE’s industry-leading dose-lowering technologies. This technique helps reduce image noise, improves image quality, enhances low-contrast detectability, and provides better contrast resolution. The Brivo CT385 with ASiR shows a remarkable 40% dose reduction while maintaining equivalent image performance. Moreover, when the same dose is maintained, ASiR enhances low-contrast detectability by up to 20%, making it a crucial feature in achieving high diagnostic confidence without increasing patient exposure to radiation.
For enhanced workflow, the Revolution ACT system includes SmartPrep, which monitors IV contrast enhancement in the area of interest. It uses low-dose scans to ensure the contrast reaches the preferred point before automatically triggering the scan. Additionally, the dynamic transition feature of SmartPrep allows the scan to start when the HU of the transition ROI reaches the desired enhancement threshold, streamlining the process and saving valuable time. The system also includes an enhanced filming workflow, offering a powerful user interface that allows multiple sessions to be opened and films to be set up in parallel.
Designed with practicality in mind, the Revolution ACT system has a compact footprint that delivers the performance of larger systems, reducing siting concerns and installation costs. The Brivo CT385 with ASiR provides significant energy savings and CO2 reduction, helping healthcare facilities reduce their environmental impact. Its 16-slice detector supports high-resolution mode (16 x 0.625 mm) for detailed imaging, and high-coverage mode (16 x 1.25 mm) for broader scans, delivering superior image quality.
The high-efficiency detector is coupled with a Digital DAS that increases the sampling rate by up to 20%, reducing noise and improving image quality in signal-starved areas, such as the shoulder, hip, and in large patients. This system is designed for high reliability, with its thermal strength and digital signal flow directly from the detector to the DAS chip, minimizing noise traditionally introduced by conventional systems.
GE continues to lead the way in dose-reduction technologies, offering numerous tools across platforms to help healthcare providers lower radiation doses without sacrificing image quality. With the combined power of the Clarity panel detector, ASiR reconstruction technology, and a highly efficient design, the Revolution ACT system provides healthcare providers with the tools they need to deliver exceptional patient care while optimizing both safety and performance.
