First images have demonstrated the superior cardiac results obtained with the Philips Brilliance iCT Scanner together with the CT Exprés III™ Contrast Media Injector. With only 2 rotations, obtained in a total acquisition time of only half a second, the entire heart can be scanned with a 0.6mm slice thickness and less than 3mSv exposure for the patient. The "Hôpital de la Tour" is the first site in Switzerland to be equipped with the Brilliance iCT Scanner from Philips Medical Systems and one of the first in Europe.
