Get two steps ahead in clinical excellence
The SOMATOM Force supports high-precision diagnosis, reliable therapy response evaluation and improved care for every patient.
- Bring image quality to the next level with free-breathing and powerful imaging: Scan obese, elderly, unconscious or uncooperative patients with minimized motion artifacts, high-resolution imaging and without sedation.
- Improve patient care with gentle and ultra-low-dose scanning: With SOMATOM Force, you can reduce the amount of contrast media required, leading to improved patient wellbeing.
- Make sound decisions — with 4D imaging at half the dose and dose-neutral Dual Energy: With 4D imaging and Dual Energy CT, you get high-quality images rich in information for more precise decisions at low dose.
Get two steps ahead in workflow performance
Get consistent images with the FAST Integrated Workflow and adapt scanning parameters to offer personalized scanning for each patient.
- Position patients precisely with FAST Integrated Workflow: The FAST 3D Camera supports fast, accurate positioning, and the Touch Panels allow you to stay with your patient.
- Accommodate the smallest to the tallest with personalized scanning: Gain outstanding speed, power reserves and sensitivity. The SOMATOM Force adapts to every need, and smart automation adjusts scan parameters to every individual.
- Zero-click postprocessing with Rapid Results: Get zero-click postprocessing within the selected scan protocol, plus fast and reproducible results independent of operator experience.
