Vitality XT CT Applications deliver a comprehensive Protocol Management solution that enables protocol approval, distribution,^*1 and tracking for similar Canon Medical Systems scanners.

Provide consistent image quality and reduce examination time by managing one master set of examination protocols, approved by designated users and distributed seamlessly to similar Canon Medical Systems CT systems on the same network.

• Protocol Review & Approval
  Ensure protocol standardization and data quality with centralized approvals and comparative reviewing.
• Protocol Sharing & Distribution
  Distribute approved protocols to similar Canon Medical Systems CT scanners on the same network.
• Protocol Data Management
  Maintain all Canon Medical Systems CT protocol data in a central master repository, providing traceability and history tracking.

In today’s healthcare environment, maximizing the productivity and utilization of each CT system is crucial. Utilization Analysis provides tools for analyzing and evaluating CT exam quality and efficiency. Benefits can include improved patient safety, quality of service and productivity of each scanner.

• Dose Monitoring
  Visualize radiation dose for each protocol and analyze the effect of protocol changes. Track the dose used for each protocol over time to ensure that the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) principle is routinely applied. Complete dose monitoring for Canon Medical Systems scanners.
• Protocol Utilization Monitoring
  Visualize how often a protocol is used to identify the most effective protocols and eliminate those that should be avoided. Reducing the number of approved protocols will ensure standardization and improve exam quality.

The Dose Tracking Data Management System receives dose data and displays the total accumulation of skin dose for procedures performed on each patient. Changes in the distribution of estimated skin dose can be played back and displayed as a dynamic image. The irradiation summary from the dose report is automatically converted to a secondary capture and forwarded to the appropriate DICOM destination (e.g., PACS).
