SOMATOM On.site

Bringing critical care imaging to your patient with portable head CT.

The SOMATOM On-site portable head CT scanner delivers reliable and consistent imaging right at your patient’s bedside. Transform the way you care for ICU patients suffering from acute and neurocritical conditions and set a new standard of care in your hospital.

More Details

Providing CT scans of the head for critically ill patients in the ICU is crucial and often challenging. Studies show that transporting patients from the ICU to the radiology department requires up to five staff members to leave their other duties behind1 but still, more than 71% of ICU patients experience adverse events during transport specifically to the CT suite.2 Additionally, scanning of ICU patients in the radiology department impacts CT availability for other patients by blocking off more than double the time of conventional exams.2,3

With the SOMATOM On.site you can maximize quality of care, optimize staff deployment and care delivery, and achieve high-end image quality at the point of care.

  • Reduce patient transports
  • Optimize staff deployment
  • Create accurate and focused images to reach fast treatment decisions
