Siemens’s X-ray CT Gains NMPA Innovation Approval

Source Node: 2945064

NMPA granted innovation approval to Siemens’s X-ray computed tomography equipment on October 17, 2023.

What’s the Device

In the approval notice, NMPA says that “the product consists of a scanning frame, high-voltage generator, X-ray tube and X-ray tube components, beam limiter, photon counting detector, power distribution unit, patient holder, laser, console, image processing software, control host, and reconstruction workstation. It’s intended for routine CT examinations and supports coronary CT angiography and energy spectrum examinations.”

This product uses innovative photon counting detector technology to count the number of incident X-ray photons and measure the energy level of the photons. Compared with CT using traditional energy integrating detectors, this product has higher spatial resolution and can directly acquire energy spectrum images, which can further meet the needs of clinical imaging diagnosis.
