While the prevalence of cancer is expected to rise sharply, accurate radiation therapy planning plays a key role in positively impacting survival rates. Introducing the all-new Aquilion Exceed LB.

With its large bore, the Aquilion Exceed LB enables you to easily position your patients with extraordinary precision. Its powerful AI-based imaging technologies and advanced treatment-specific features allow for an efficient radiation oncology workflow without compromising on patient position, image quality, or reproducibility.

Transforming radiation oncology, the Aquilion Exceed LB has a 90cm wide bore, edge-to-edge extended reconstruction, and Canon Medical’s Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) Deep Learning Reconstruction technology, so you can quickly obtain sharp, clear, distinct images with excellent delineation.

Enhance your productivity and maximize your clinical capabilities at every stage. From acquisition to simulation, the Aquilion Exceed LB has the latest tools and applications for quick patient set-up and respiratory motion management.

The Aquilion Exceed LB is a smart, efficient solution designed to enhance your operations and expand your clinical capabilities to deliver a tailored approach in oncology care.

Advanced Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) has been designed to provide outstanding anatomical resolution in all body regions and tissue types.

See through the noise to achieve clear, sharp and distinct images with excellent spatial and anatomical resolution; so you can confidently contour the extent of the tumor and the surrounding organs at risk.

Regardless of your patients’ individual therapy need, the 90cm wide bore of the Aquilion Exceed LB CT system allows for more comfortable patient positioning as well as efficiency and accuracy in the simulation process, reducing their time on the table.

With the largest extended FOV (eFOV) in the industry of 90cm to visualize the skin margin, you can now ensure that all your patients get the comprehensive radiation therapy planning they require for a more tailored and targeted treatment approach.

Canon Medical’s Single Energy Metal Artifact Reduction (SEMAR) utilizes a sophisticated reconstruction technique to virtually eliminate metallic artifact and improve the visualization of implants, supporting bone, and the adjacent soft tissue for clearer and more confident planning.

Aquilion Exceed LB integrates seamlessly with a range of respiratory gating devices and can perform both phase and amplitude sorting.

Its 4D CT capabilities to enable respiratory gated scanning are based on two scan modes, the helical scan mode, with phase and amplitude binning, and the volume scan mode with phase-based reconstruction. These allow you to select the best acquisition method to match the patient condition and the target anatomy for treatment. The scan parameters are automatically set by the scanner based on the patient’s breath cycle.

The system’s 80-row detector, 4cm coverage per rotation, which is the widest in large bore CT systems allows an area of anatomy to be scanned faster compared to narrower detector configurations. This allows respiratory gated scans to be performed in fewer breath cycles, making the exam more comfortable for the patient. And this is ideal when working with complex cases that involve anatomy such as the heart or chest, as it enables you to quickly obtain high-quality images.

A range of technologies has been built into the Aquilion Exceed LB to lower the dose and maximize image quality with an accelerated workflow. You can now expect reconstructions at up to 70fps* with automatic transfer to simulation or planning. It connects with your existing solutions, planning devices, and positioning lasers for a smoother and productive workflow.

The Aquilion Exceed LB has been designed to help physicians make the most of its speed, accuracy, and flexibility in a range of settings. The system can also be connected to your Vitrea imaging solution for additional ease and fast access to clinical insights.

Not only does the Aquilion Exceed LB’s ultra-wide bore enable fast and flexible positioning, it also ensures that patients of nearly any size and condition can be scanned comfortably. The system accommodates bariatric patients; so you can provide a more inclusive and wide-ranging service.

Equipped with a hybrid CT fluoroscopy function for one-handed operation, with ergonomically designed controls and a versatile touchscreen, the Aquilion Exceed LB enables more space between the needle probes and CT gantry for more confident needle placement. It also comes with Canon Medical’s Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction 3D (AIDR 3D), so you can optimize the speed and safety of low-dose biopsies and interventional procedures.

The Aquilion Exceed LB has been designed for improved productivity to take your service delivery to the next level. The system is reliable, cost-efficient, and backed by expert technicians, remote service solutions, as well support from your local engineering and clinical application teams for additional opportunities to increase your clinical offering.
