WorkRite

Navigate faster with confidence and accuracy

Improved DSA and 2D roadmap with real-time auto pixel shift to automatically correct the position of the mask image due to body motion. Alpha CT can be used to obtain CT-like 3D imaging data from the C-arm. Superimpose this 3D data or prior CT/MR data with the live fluoro display to guide device placement with greater confidence. Comprehensive planning tools, such as cerebral aneurysm analysis allow for quick and intuitive stent sizing and positioning prior to treatment

WorkRite

Enhanced workflow to give you greater control and flexibility

Alphenix floor- and ceiling-mounted C-arms support complex neurology procedures with an unprecedented range of patient access and full-body coverage. The new tableside Alphenix Tablet gives you control right at your fingertips to deliver a faster, more seamless and richer work experience. The new feature-rich Alphenix Workstation better integrates applications to help you plan, analyze and perform interventional procedures.

DoseRite

See more of interest, with less exposure

The unique functionality of DoseRite Spot ROI reduces dose outside the region of interest while still allowing visualization of the surrounding anatomy to aid device placement. DoseRite Spot Fluoro uses asymmetric collimation to significantly reduce patient dose as well as scatter radiation to clinical staff.

DoseRite

Comprehensive dose management tools benefit patients and clinical staff

Advanced hardware significantly reduces patient dose and scatter radiation offering greater protection for the patient and clinical staff. Real-time software tools help eliminate unnecessary exposure to minimize dose and improve workflow. Enhanced dose tracking tools allow real-time estimated peak skin dose monitoring and archiving. Real-time monitoring and visualization of dose allows the operator to choose a different approach during a long procedure to avoid regions where dose thresholds have been exceeded.

InvestRite

The smart investment choice

Whatever your clinical needs, versatile space-saving configurations make refitting existing suites an economical option. Alphenix systems seamlessly integrate into your HIS and PACS networks. Improvements in functionality, speed and workflow efficiency boost system utilization and productivity. In addition, lower energy consumption, flexible upgrade options and Canon Medical’s industry-recognized customer service, all help you get the best out the system once installed.

Detector size choice

Alphenix interventional angiography systems are available with a choice of flat panel detectors sizes to suit your coverage needs.

12”x12” (30cm x 30cm)
This compact design can clear the patient’s shoulder in a lateral projection, making it ideal for neurology applications.

Hi-def 12”x12” (30cm x 30cm)* Housed in the same compact design as the standard flat panel detector, this detector increases resolution from 6” (15cm) to an impressive 1.5” (38mm).
