All-in-one diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. The Hybrid OR with Cone Beam CT provides a one stop workflow eliminating multiple clinical visits for improved patient experience and care. Navigational bronchoscopy, percutaneous biopsy, fiducial placement, and iVATS can be combined into a single-stage, singleprovider procedure allowing for diagnosis and treatment in one setting. This streamlined approach not only avoids the upstaging and worse prognosis associated with delayed treatment, but it is also a cost-effective paradigm for the institution.

Xper CT Dual

High quality intra-operative cone beam CT (XperCTDual) provides clinicians greater confidence and precision during biopsies and tumor marking and is imperative for ablative treatment.

Dedicated Lung protocols offer outstanding image quality with reduced radiation exposure

Detection accuracy of lung lesions equivalent to conventional MDCT¹

Detailed visualization of lesion boundaries and relevant anatomical structures and proprietary lesion segmentation tool allow to determine the optimal endobronchial, percutaneous or surgical approach

Accurate localization of biopsy and ablation devices in 3D.

High contrast resolution enables monitoring and confirmation of local treatment by providing visualization of adequate tumor coverage and potential complications.

XperGuide

Lesion heterogeneity and lack of conspicuity limit the quality of specimens as well as the feasibility of biopsies when performed under ultrasound or conventional CT. XperGuide needle navigation technology with CBCT increases precision, and enable the targeting of smaller (<=1 cm) or heterogeneous lesions more accurately with less needle repositioning at lower dose than conventional CT.

Accurate and reliable reach of lesions as small as 1 cm or below²

Two times more accurate needle positioning compared to conventional CT²

Six times less needle repositioning compared to conventional CT²

29% les skin dose compared to conventional CT²
