Siemens Sensation 64

The Siemens SOMATOM Sensation 64 Slice CT is the flagship of
the award-winning Sensation series.
The Siemens Sensation 64 was the first CT scanner with the ability to
take 192 images of the heart per second.
Like the Sensation 40 Slice, the Siemens Sensation 64 slice offers a
very high routine isotropic resolution of 0.33mm, allowing it to
visualize the smalles pathology with outstanding quality.
The z-UHR option on the Siemens Sensation 64 offers an
exceptional 0.24mm isotropic resolution, allowing it to clearly visualize the
complex inner ear bones and joints. Siemens CARE dose reduction is
also featured on the Sensation 64.
