GE LightSpeed VCT 64 CT scanner for sophisticated imaging

The GE LightSpeed VCT 64 CT scanner is one of the most powerful devices in its class and was specially developed for high-resolution examinations of complex clinical issues. With 64 detector channels, high rotation speed and the latest reconstruction technology, the system offers excellent image quality with a reduced radiation dose.

Whether for cardiac imaging, oncology, emergency diagnostics or whole-body scans – this CT scanner delivers precise results and supports fast and reliable diagnosis in everyday clinical practice.

CT scanner with 64-line technology for high resolution and speed

At the heart of the GE LightSpeed VCT is its 64-line detector architecture, which captures up to 40 mm of anatomical information per rotation. The short rotation time of just 0.35 seconds per scan makes the system particularly suitable for motion-sensitive examinations – of the heart or lungs, for example.

The combination of speed and isotropic resolution enables high-quality 3D reconstructions and precise cross-sectional images in all planes. The CT scanner reliably delivers sharp, high-contrast images, even during high-load operation or in emergencies.

Modern image processing techniques such as ASIR (Adaptive Statistical Iterative Reconstruction) are used to optimize the dose. These reduce image noise and improve the visualization of fine structures – while at the same time reducing radiation exposure for the patient.

Workflow-optimized CT scanner for daily clinical operations

In addition to the image quality, the GE LightSpeed VCT 64 impresses with its sophisticated workflow. The operating console is clearly laid out and enables quick selection of predefined examination protocols. Automated positioning functions and an optimized scan setup significantly reduce preparation time.

The generous gantry diameter of 70 cm facilitates the positioning of different patient groups – including obese or intensive care patients. Thanks to the fast acquisition, even patients with limited ability to cooperate can be examined reliably.

The integration into existing RIS and PACS systems is fully DICOM-compatible, so that examination results are immediately available and can be processed efficiently.

CT scanner for a wide range of clinical applications

The GE LightSpeed VCT 64 is a versatile CT scanner that covers a wide range of medical applications. In cardiology, it enables non-invasive coronary angiography with high temporal resolution. In oncology, it impresses with precise tumor staging examinations. The system also delivers fast and reliable results in the field of traumatology, even with complex injury patterns.

Thanks to its stability, system availability and upgradeability, the CT scanner is also a reliable long-term solution for radiology departments with high throughput and diagnostic quality requirements.

Whether as the main device in a university hospital or as a powerful addition in a specialized center – the GE LightSpeed VCT 64 meets the requirements of modern CT diagnostics at a high level.
