NAEOTOM Alpha® with Quantum Technology
CT redefined.
Photon-counting CT
NAEOTOM Alpha with Quantum Technology, the world’s first photon-counting CT, is nothing less than the total reinvention of computed tomography.
Based on the revolutionary direct signal-conversion of its QuantaMax detector, NAEOTOM Alpha offers high-resolution images at minimal dose, spectral information in every scan, and improved contrast at lower noise.
Benefit from a never-before seen range of clinical options and breakthrough consistency – for potentially scanning previously excluded patients and confident clinical decision making.
Experience a defining moment in computed tomography.
- Impressive details. Unveiled.
- Patient reach. Unlocked.
- Meaningful answers. Uncompromised
- Consistent precision. Unvaried.
- Intuitive operation. Uncomplicated.

NAEOTOM Alpha with Quantum Technology offers a radical new way to generate clinical results.
What our customers are saying
This has the potential to redefine clinical decision making right from the first scan.
A completely new way to make small structures of the heart visible.
This will open up the potential to scan more patients on our CT.
In the future every CT will be a photon-counting CT.
We were impressed how robust and stable the system was running from day one. Today we routinely scan around 60 patients per day–all the while producing excellent clinical results.
Patients with pulmonary vascular disease usually receive scintigraphy prior to CT. This is no longer justified if one CT scan provides high-resolution morphology and a detailed iodine map showing lung perfusion.
