Aquilion one scanner

Manufactured by Canon
Sourced in Japan

The Aquilion ONE scanner is a computed tomography (CT) imaging system designed and manufactured by Canon. The Aquilion ONE is capable of producing high-resolution, three-dimensional images of the body. It utilizes advanced imaging technology to capture detailed information about the internal structures of the human body.

CT Imaging Protocol for Angiography

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CT imaging was performed on an Aquilion ONE scanner (Canon Medical Systems Corporation, Otawara, Japan). The tube voltage and tube current were set to 135 kVp and 370–600 mA for nCCT, respectively, and 120 kVp and 150–205 mA for CTA, respectively. The reconstructed voxel sizes for the nCCT and CTA were set to 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 mm3 and 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 mm3, respectively. For CTA imaging, a dosage of 80 mL of Omnipaque 350 contrast was given at a rate of 5mL/s during CTA image acquisition.

Multi-Scanner Lung CT Imaging Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
CT images of the whole lungs were obtained at full inspiration using 3 different scanners, including an Aquilion Prime scanner (Canon Medical Systems, Otawara, Japan) at Takeda Hospital and an Aquilion One scanner (Canon Medical Systems) and a LightSpeed VCT scanner (GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI, USA) at Tsukuba Medical Center. In Takeda Hospital, archived images of 0.5 mm slices reconstructed with the sharp (FC53) kernel were converted to soft kernel (FC13)-based images at 1.0 mm slice thickness using a previously established deep neural network model [32 (link)]. In the Tsukuba Medical Center, images at 1.0 mm and 1.25 mm slice thicknesses reconstructed with the soft (FC02 and STANDARD) kernel and sharp (FC53 and LUNG) kernel were obtained using an Aquilion One and LightSpeed VCT scanner, respectively. The scanning conditions were 120 kVp, 0.4 s exposure time, and autoexposure control for all 3 scanners. The sharp kernel-based images were used for visual assessment of CLE and PSE, whereas the soft kernel-based images were used for quantifications of PM, SAT, ESM, EAT, and CAC.

Optimized CT Imaging Protocol for Clot Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For all patients, CT was performed on an Aquilion ONE scanner (Canon Medical Systems). The tube voltage and tube current were set to 135 kV(peak) and 370–600 mA, respectively, for NCCT, and 120 kVp and 150–205 mA, respectively, for CTA. The reconstructed voxel sizes for NCCT and CTA were set to 0.4×0.4×0.5 mm3 and 0.5×0.5×0.5 mm3, respectively. For CTA, Omnipaque 350 contrast agent (iohexol; GE Healthcare) was given at a rate of ∼5 mL/s in CT perfusion during image acquisition. The CTA image with the lowest thickness (0.5 mm) and highest resolution was selected for analysis of the clot region.

Quantifying Coronary Artery Calcium on CT

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Coronary artery calcium was quantified using a non-contrast cardiac CT scan on a 320-detector row Toshiba Aquilion One scanner (Canon Medical Systems, Otawara, Japan). The scans were acquired using prospective ECG-gating with imaging trigger at 75% of the R-R interval and a slice thickness of 0.5 mm during one inspiratory breath-hold. Scan parameters: tube voltage 120 kV, tube current 40–370 mA, expected radiation dose 1–3 mSv. Calcium scores were calculated using Vitrea Cardiac software on reconstructed 3.0 mm images on a post-processing workstation (Vitrea Enterprise Suite version 6.4.3, Minnetonka, US).
The presence of coronary calcification was identified as at least three "face-connected" voxels in the course of a coronary artery as areas of hyperattenuation of at least 1 mm2 with >130 Hounsfield units. Abnormal CAC scores were defined as an Agatston score >0.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
