CT SOMATOM On.site

SOMATOM® On.siteBringing critical care imaging to your patient with portable head CT

The Siemens Healthineers SOMATOM On.site portable head CT scanner delivers reliable and consistent imaging right at your patient's bedside. Transform the way you care for ICU patients suffering from acute and neuro critical conditions and deliver a new standard of care delivery in your hospital.

Staff move an ICU patient bed along a hospital hallway

Providing CT scans of the head for critically ill patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is crucial and often challenging. 

  • Transporting patients from the ICU to the radiology department requires up to five staff members to leave their other duties behind.1

  • More than 71% of ICU patients experience adverse events during transport specifically to the CT suite.2

  • Scanning of ICU patients in the radiology department impacts CT availability for other patients by blocking off more than double the time of conventional exams.2,3

Experience portable head CT scanning with SOMATOM image quality right at the patient’s bedside.

Reduce patient transports

  • CT imaging of the head directly in the ICU reduces complications associated with patient transports to the radiology department.
  • Reduce the number of ICU patient scans performed in the radiology department, potentially resulting in more streamlined utilization of stationary systems and staff.

Optimize staff deployment

  • ICU staff can remain in the ICU and focus more on their core tasks and care for their patients.
  • Reduce physical burden on staff by eliminating the need to transfer patients to a dedicated scanner and table.

SOMATOM image quality

  • The Touch UI makes scanner operation intuitive and easy.
  • Performing CT scans of the head at the patient's bedside helps physicians to reach fast treatment decision.
