The MX 16-slice CT, still pending 510(k) clearance, is part of the MX series, a family of CT scanners.
This 16-slice system is designed for those customers who want to replace their current scanner or add a second system, but have purchasing cost concerns stemming from economic pressures.
The 16-slice is a high-performing scanner, capable of executing all routine applications, including exams like CT angiography (CTA), where a 16-slice scanner is typically required. It is also suited for those clinicians who may want to add a second system to expand their clinical services in the areas of CTA and virtual colonoscopy.
