Aquilion One is a multislice CT system that supports whole body scanning. The system supports simultaneous data aquisition of 320 slices using the Selectable Slice-thickness Multi-row Detector (SSMD). In addition, the high speed rotation mechanism and the reconstruction unit of the system allow quick image acquisition to further improve throughput in CT examinations. Aquilion ONE, Toshiba's top of the line X-ray CT system, is provided with a 7.5 MHU large capacity X-ray tube unit and detector and permits scanning at the high speed per rotation.
