Siemens Healthcare has completed the first U.S. installation of its Artis One angiography system, which was cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May.
St. John Hospital and Medical Center in Detroit has installed the device for use in interventional cardiology and electrophysiology applications.
Artis One can be sited in only 269 sq ft and has multiple axes that can move independently of one another, according to Siemens. The system can handle patients up to 6 ft, 10 inches, in height without repositioning, and it features Siemens' ClearStent Live application for interventional cardiology procedures, as well as HeartSweep, a cardiac imaging tool that uses dual-axis rotational angiography to image the entire heart in one C-arm movement, the company said.
![Representative example of a 16-year-old male patient with underlying X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy. (A, B) Paired anteroposterior (AP) chest radiograph and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) report shows lumbar spine (L1 through L4) areal bone mineral density (BMD). The DXA report was reformatted for anonymization and improved readability. The patient had low BMD (Z score ≤ −2.0). (C) Model (chest radiography [CXR]–BMD) output shows the predicted raw BMD and Z score in comparison with the DXA reference standard, together with interpretability analyses using Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and gradient-weighted class activation maps. The patient was classified as having low BMD, consistent with the reference standard.
