CT lung cancer screening at dose levels approaching conventional radiography
Designed to work in combination with AiCE, SilverBeam delivers AI-enhanced, high-quality, low-noise CT lung cancer screening images at the radiation dose on the order of a typical chest X-ray exam.
SilverBeam with AiCE can be used to confidently set up a lung cancer screening service in your hospital.

The industry’s first 3D Landmark Scan: 3D CT scan planning at the dose level of a 2D scanogram
Aquilion Serve is equipped with the SilverBeam filter, a beam-shaping filter which leverages the photon-attenuating properties of silver to selectively remove low energy photons from a polychromatic X-ray beam, leaving an energy spectrum optimised for high contrast CT applications.
3D Landmark Scan uses the SilverBeam filter to perform a low dose helical scan at the same dose level as a 2D scanogram to acquire the data needed by for Canon’s Anatomical Landmark Detection (ALD) algorithm to accurately identify the anatomical structures required to perform automatic scan planning for all routine exams.

Automatic scan planning for all routine scans
Aquilion Serve features Automatic Scan Planning to automatically plan all routine scans including scan ranges and parameters, including dose and exposure settings, using the unique 3D Landmark Scan data and the Anatomical Landmark Detection technology.
Low-dose 3D Landmark Scan combined with Anatomical Landmark Detection (ALD) results in a 23.3% dose reduction due to a more accurate, reduced scan range.
- Ensured consistency
- Improved accuracy
- Reduced radiation dose
- Faster workflow and reduced time
AiCE – Sharp, clear and distinct images. At low dose.
Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) uses Deep learning innovation to distinguish true signal from noise to deliver exceptional image quality at low radiation dose.

Automated bone subtraction and/or iodine mapping.
SURESubtraction CT
In CTA examinations Angiography SURESubtraction CT (SCT) has the ability to remove bone, calcium and stents from data sets allowing clinicians an unobstructed view of the arteries.
Moreover, SURESubtraction can create iodine mapping SURESubtraction CT (SCT) to enable the assessment of the distribution of contrast media within the body to visualise local perfusion.
SURESubtraction SCT has protocol integrated automation at every step to empower even a novice operator with the skills to perform brilliantly the first time — every time.
Prior to subtraction, Canon Medical Systems' deformable registration allows pixel matching between the pre-contrast and contrast enhanced data for precise digital subtraction and iodine mapping, saving time and improving diagnostic accuracy.
Robust cardiac CT examinations - automated, adaptive and easy
Cardiac CT imaging has never been more robust than with the Aquilion Serve. The intelligent SURECardio engine is coded with the experience of thousands of cardiac examinations, ensuring scan and exposure parameters adapt exactly to your patients in real time.
Prospectively gated ultra helical
Combining the advantages of helical scanning with ECG narrow phase exposure, SURECardio Prospective offers excellent z-axis uniformity, short scan times, and the low-dose advantages delivered by prospective ECG scanning.
The Canon Medical Systems advantage
SURECardio Prospective: Faster scan for reduced contrast requirements and superior temporal uniformity.
Helical Arrhythmia Detection
With Aquilion Serve Cardio Prospective Adaptive diagnostic scan mode, the system will begin the acquisition prospectively, and if an arrhythmia is detected, it will automatically switch to a continuous mode in order to ensure a diagnostic exam.
