Equipped with advanced AI-driven automation tools, the SOMATOM go.Sim CT Simulator streamlines image acquisition and treatment planning, reducing the workload on clinicians and ensuring greater accuracy. Its user-friendly interface, mobile workflow and intuitive touch-based controls make it simpler for technologists to operate, while features like automated patient positioning and setup further optimize the workflow.
Beyond its technological advancements, the SOMATOM go.Sim CT Simulator is designed with sustainability and patient well-being in mind. Its low-dose technology reduces radiation dose based on ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle, ensuring patients undergoing multiple imaging sessions during treatment and follow up studies do not get over-burdened with undesirable radiation dose. Additionally, the simulator is also designed with a special imaging protocol meant for the pediatric patient group adapting to the weight and age of children, significantly reducing unwanted radiation dose.
myExam Companion, an AI-based assistant guides the operator through the scanning procedure, providing real-time adjustments and optimizing image quality for each patient, which can significantly reduce the requirement for re-scans. Special features like iMAR & SAFFIRE software takes care in reducing impact of metal artifacts & electronic noise in the reconstructed images, thus generating high resolution images essential for effective radiation therapy treatment planning.
Mr. Wijith Pushpawela, Executive Director of DIMO and head of its healthcare arm said, “DIMO Healthcare is dedicated to bringing the latest technology to crucial sectors in the healthcare
domain, such as Cancer Management, as technological advancements are seen to have a positive impact on the community at large. The Siemens Healthineers SOMATOM go.Sim CT Simulator is a testament to our commitment to enhancing the quality of imaging for radiation therapy in the oncology sphere. With Siemens Healthineers, we aim to deliver successful and more patient-oriented therapy, which ultimately enables us to build a healthier nation while fueling the dreams and aspirations of Sri Lankans.”
By combining the power of cutting-edge technology with DIMO Healthcare’s engineering expertise in the medical field and the seamless functioning of these advanced equipment with periodic service and maintenance, Sri Lanka is now equipped to provide sophisticated cancer care. The Siemens Healthineers SOMATOM go.Sim CT Simulator represents a significant step in the country’s journey towards a healthier future.
