A whole body scan machine provides rapid, low‑dose imaging of the entire torso and limbs in a single acquisition, enabling early detection of abnormalities such as tumors, vascular calcifications, and bone density loss.
The system uses a stationary gantry with a wide‑bore detector array and a pulsed X‑ray source that delivers an effective dose typically below 1 mSv per scan, comparable to a standard chest X‑ray while covering a far larger anatomical volume.
Cost effectiveness is achieved through a simplified mechanical design that eliminates costly moving parts, a detector panel based on mature amorphous silicon technology, and a software suite that reuses existing reconstruction algorithms, reducing both capital expense and long‑term service overhead.
Typical Specifications
| Parameter | Typical Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Scan Field of View | 2000 mm length × 500 mm diameter | Covers head‑to‑toe in adults |
| Spatial Resolution | 0.8 mm (high‑contrast) | Measured at center of FOV |
| Effective Dose | 0.8 mSv (adult) | Low‑dose protocol, adjustable |
| Scan Time | 8 seconds (breath‑hold) | Includes table movement |
| Power Consumption | 3.5 kVA | Standard 208‑V three‑phase |
| Footprint | 2.2 m × 1.1 m | Includes service clearance |
Key Features
- Stationary gantry eliminates mechanical wear and reduces maintenance intervals.
- Wide‑bore design accommodates patients up to 250 kg without repositioning.
- Integrated dose‑monitoring software provides real‑time kV/mA feedback to stay within preset limits.
- Modular detector panels allow field‑replaceable units, shortening downtime.
- Built‑in QA phantom automates daily constancy checks.
Occupational health programs benefit from the ability to screen large workforces quickly; the short breath‑hold time minimizes disruption to shift schedules while the low dose complies with regulatory limits for repeated annual exams.
Manufacturing follows a design‑for‑service approach: major sub‑assemblies (gantry, detector cabinet, power module) are bolted together with standardized interfaces, enabling field technicians to replace a unit in under two hours without specialized tools.
Frequently Asked Questions
Standard FOV covers up to 2000 mm; optional table extensions are available upon request to accommodate heights beyond 2 m.
Facility power specifications, ceiling height, and anticipated patient throughput help configure the appropriate detector panel count and cooling system.
Daily automated QA routine is included that logs uniformity and resolution metrics; drift beyond preset thresholds triggers a service alert.
