Introduction

The SOMATOM CT system is used to generate tomographic images of

the organs of a patient for diagnostic purposes in accordance with

the computed tomography procedures. The tomographic images

generated with this system can be viewed on a monitor, processed,

filmed, and exported.

The system consists of the following components:

(1) Acquisition system: gantry and patient table

(2) Console: computers, input units, monitor, control box, etc.

SOMATOM Emotion can be operated in the x-ray department of a

hospital or doctor’s office. The CT system must be operated in rooms

that are designated for medical use.

•Components or software functionalities that may not be part of

your system configuration are described in your user

documentation. Not all the optional components and software

functionalities may be marked as optional. The availability of

these components or software functionalities depends on your

system configuration or your purchase contract.
