Product Description: The Siemens Biograph mCT 20 Excel is a high-performance PET/CT scanner that offers a unique combination of imaging technologies to meet the needs of community hospitals and smaller imaging centers. This system is built around a large 78 cm gantry bore, which comfortably accommodates larger patients and those with radiotherapy positioning devices. It is equipped with a powerful 80 kW generator and a STRATON®
X-ray tube for robust CT performance. The system excels in dose management with Dose Shield
and CARE Dose4D™
technology, which automatically modulate dose to ensure a low radiation exposure for both CT and PET scans. With advanced features like Time-of-Flight
PET for enhanced lesion detectability and Adaptive Signal Boost
for bariatric patients, the Biograph mCT 20 Excel provides the high-quality, quantitative information necessary for confident diagnosis and treatment planning.
