At RSNA 2013, GE Healthcare will showcase a range of molecular imaging tools designed to enable treatment evaluation earlier in a patient’s care pathway. Q.Suite, a collection of capabilities designed to extend quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) by generating more consistent standardized uptake value (SUV) readings, enabling clinicians to assess treatment response. Q.Suite is designed to help improve consistency of quantitative measurements in every key area: daily quality control, scanner workflow, motion correction, reconstruction algorithms and analysis and reporting applications. Controlling these variables to increase consistency can improve the clinician’s confidence that an SUV change has useful clinical meaning.

At RSNA 2013, GE will continue to demonstrate its innovations in low dose and high image quality in computed tomography (CT) imaging. The Discovery CT750 HD is the world's first high definition CT (HDCT), built with GE's exclusive Gemstone detector FREEdom Technologies. This allows for intelligent motion correction to “freeze” coronary motion, enhance coronary visualization and obtain additional information on plaque material composition. New this year is kV Assist, which provides optimized personalized scan settings and applications with automated kV and mA selection. kV Assist combined with SnapShot Assist deliver the desired image quality at the lowest possible dose and workflow optimizations for efficient cardiac CT.
