Whether you are equipping with a first time CT start up activity, or upgrading from single or dual slices CT, you can now join the 16-slices world with access to:
- High resolution and Image Quality
- Proven dose lowering technologies at reach
- Fast, automated and efficient post-processing
- Ergonomy with a patient and user centered design
Clinical benefits
Thanks to the combination of the 24-rows detector and IQ Enhance, Brivo CT385 makes the 16slices isotropy world and coverage at reach.
In general purpose CT, Brivo CT385 helps gaining more quality and patients access.
- Chest – the fast scanning with Pitch Booster enables the management of difficult patients with 35mm coverage per second.
- Abdomen – Speed & Coverage combined will help catching any vascular phase.
- Pelvis – an excellent IQ can be achieved with less risk of motion artifacts during a shorter acquisition time thanks to Pitch Booster.
- Vascular – studies will benefit from the microvoxell of the new generation HiLight scintillator paired with the new DAS technique.
- Circle of Willis & Carotid – Spatial Resolution & Fast Scanning needs are covered with the 0.625 submilimeters acquisition, 100kVp availability, the contrast Smart Triggering, and the Pitch Booster.
- Thoracic & Abdominal Aorta – the 20mm detector acquisition enables the Speed & Coverage for arterial phase.

Low Dose
Image quality at low dose is made possible
- ASiR the latest raw data iterative technique which enables less dose without compromising image quality.
- ODM which helps reducing dose on sensitive organs.
- OptiDose technologies (“Color Coding for Kids” protocols, 3D Dose Modulation and Organ Dose Modulation)
- Dose Check, a dose management tool that provides alerts and notifications to scanner operators when an institution’s pre-defined radiation dose levels will be exceeded.
Clinical Workflow
Patient positioning and protocols setting made easy
- Simple access to gantry commands
- Dedicated emergency protocols for urgency cases
- Pediatric protocols for kids
- Real Time Scout helps improving productivity while providing better care for the patient
Dynamic transition
- Enable correct timing of xray start at optimal contrast density, for scanning at the appropriate phase.
- Preparing for postprocessing, up to 10 Prospective Multiple Reconstructions allow higher flexibility for cases management.
Fast visualization
- Real time direct reconstruction and transfer of fully corrected multi-planar images, in any plane (Direct MPR)
Fast post-processing
- Built-in applications such as Reformat, MIP, minIP 3D Surface & Volume Rendering, Virtual Endoscopy
- Additional tools are available for advanced dedicated studies such as
- Autobone
- Advanced Vessel Analysis
- CT Perfusion Neuro and Multi – Organ
- Colonography
- Dentascan

Modern Design & Operations
With its modern design and capability Brivo CT385 still fits into the siting requirements of most single and dual slice CT systems with:
- compact size
- small electricity requirements
Its energy saving mode will help satisfy both electricity consumption needs and the avoidance of nightly power interruptions.
Brivo CT385 has a dedicated console which is designed to host and manage the 16 slices dataset to better serve the clinicians, while being easy to use and comfortable for the radiographers.
