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 Scope 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.
•The pictures of the components shown here are only examples.
The appearance of your components depends on the system
configuration.
