SOMATOM Definition - Launch Movie

Most sophisticated ideas start with a simple scribble

Many of the world's most sophisticated ideas began life as a simple scribble. At Siemens, we had a vision for the future of Computed Tomography (CT), an idea that took shape in the form of a simple scribble. Our vision has become a reality: a CT scanner completely unlike anything you have seen before. A scanner that will change the way you look at CT forever. A scanner that will revolutionize the world of CT - SOMATOM Definition, the world's first Dual Source CT.

Moving beyond the simple adding of detector rows, the SOMATOM Definition uses two X-ray sources and two detectors at the same time.
