Our Technology

At Clear Heart and Lung, we utilize Arineta’sSpotLight Duo CT, the world’s first dedicated cardiovascular and thoracic CT scanner. This innovative technology is designed to provide comprehensive clinical information for diagnosis and therapy planning. SpotLight Duo offers optimized imaging of the entire heart and cardiovascular system with 140 mm coverage at a rotation speed of 0.24 sec per rotation. Notably, it uses a lower radiation dose than whole-body CT scanners.

Its ability to image based on a single heartbeat, along with its fast scan speed, reduces contrast volumes and the need for beta-blocker administration. SpotLight Duo enables the successful execution of clinical applications from Calcium Scoring to Cardiac CTA and peripheral vascular imaging, even for patients with high or unstable heart rates and for obese patients.

Benefits of SpotLight Duo CT Scanner for Patients

  • Avoids Unnecessary Invasive Procedures: When used with Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR), 60% of angiograms are deferred, reducing the need for invasive procedures.
  • Minimizes Stress: Compact size makes the scanner less intimidating than a full-size scanner, reducing fear of the unknown.
  • Boosts Satisfaction: Patients are likely to be more satisfied with the physician, the facility, and the experience when they receive answers quickly.
  • Increases Compliance: Patients get their diagnosis from one test rather than needing multiple appointments.
  • Reduces Adverse Events: By getting patients on treatment plans faster, the likelihood of heart events happening before treatment begins is greatly lessened.
