Siemens Healthineers offers AIDAN artificial intelligence technologies on its Biograph family of PET/CT systems, which includes the Biograph Horizon, Biograph mCT and Biograph Vision. AIDAN is built on a foundation of patient-focused bed design and proprietary AI deep-learning technology to enable four new features. AIDAN’s FlowMotion AI uses continuous bed motion with ALPHA proprietary AI technology, which automatically detects anatomical structures, to recognize patient anatomy and automatically apply disease-specific protocol parameters based on individual requirements. AIDAN’s PET FAST WorkFlow AI automates and simplifies post-scan tasks. It automatically performs fast image transfer and auto data export, and creates PACS-ready data ranges. AIDAN’s OncoFreeze AI allows acquisition of PET/CT images that are virtually free of respiratory motion utilizing 100 percent of the acquired PET counts, with no additional time added to the exam and no respiratory belt. Finally, AIDAN’s Multiparametric PET Suite AI offers a fully automated workflow that extracts the arterial input function automatically from acquired PET/CT images. In addition to the standard SUV image, Multiparametric PET Suite AI provides clinical information for the patient report in the form of metabolic rate and distribution volume.
