DESCRIPTION
The GE HealthCare Revolution™ Frontier is a high-performance computed tomography (CT) system designed to deliver exceptional imaging capabilities, advanced spectral imaging, and streamlined workflows. Engineered to meet the demands of modern healthcare environments, the Revolution Frontier integrates cutting-edge technologies to provide precise diagnostics and enhanced patient care.
Advanced Imaging Technology
At the core of the Revolution Frontier is an elevated imaging chain that includes:
Performix™ HD Plus X-ray Tube: This advanced tube technology significantly reduces wear compared to conventional ball bearing designs, resulting in shorter warm-up times and extended tube life.
Gemstone™ Clarity Detector: Built with the proven Gemstone material known for its high primary speed and low afterglow, this miniaturized detector design reduces electronic noise, enhances spatial resolution, and supports spectral imaging capabilities.
High Definition Mode: For the most challenging cases, the system offers a high-definition mode that improves spatial resolution to 0.23 mm, providing detailed images for accurate diagnosis.
Spectral Imaging with GSI Pro
The Revolution Frontier features Gemstone Spectral Imaging (GSI) Pro, a spectral CT application that utilizes rapid kilovoltage (kV) switching to acquire dual-energy samples from a single source. Key benefits include:
Ultra-Fast Dual Energy Switching: Achieves kV switching at a rate of up to 0.25 milliseconds with sub-millimeter Z-axis registration, enabling precise material characterization.
Full 50 cm Field of View: Provides comprehensive spectral imaging coverage, facilitating detailed analysis across the entire body.
Reduced Beam-Hardening Artifacts: Improves image quality by minimizing artifacts caused by bone, metal, and high-contrast materials such as iodine.
Clinical Versatility and Workflow Efficiency
The Revolution Frontier is designed to adapt to a wide range of clinical needs, offering:
SnapShot™ Freeze 2 Technology: Provides up to a six-fold reduction in motion artifacts, particularly beneficial for coronary artery CT angiography (CTA) in patients with high heart rates.
ASiR-V Iterative Reconstruction: Reduces image noise and enhances low-signal contrast detectability, enabling high-quality imaging at lower radiation doses.
Auto Positioning: Streamlines the scanning process by automatically positioning the patient, reducing setup time and improving consistency across examinations.
Remote Control Capabilities: Allows for consistent protocol adherence and improved accuracy through remote operation, enhancing workflow efficiency.
Enhanced Service and Support
To ensure optimal performance and minimize downtime, the Revolution Frontier is supported by GE HealthCare’s comprehensive service solutions, including:
Predictive Maintenance: Proactive monitoring and maintenance to identify and address potential issues before they impact system performance.
Extended Tube Life: The advanced X-ray tube design contributes to a longer operational lifespan, reducing the frequency of replacements and associated costs.
