2022: System Announcement
On June 12, 2022, Shimadzu introduced the new Trinias angiographic system. This device has become the new flagship in the manufacturer's line.
The new Trinias system uses deep learning technology artificial intelligence to improve the visibility of medical devices when using 40% and a lower dose of X-rays, at least twice as much as previous models. This is the first time that AI has been incorporated into the imaging engine of an angiographic system.
Trinias offers an extensive set of new features to simplify the workflow, allowing clinical operations to be performed more efficiently in any medical facility. By launching the subscription service, which ensures that the software is constantly updated to the current version, the system is a sustainable product designed for long-term use.
The systems are used to conduct angiographic examinations, in which the doctor inserts a catheter, through a blood vessel in the wrist or inguinal area of the patient into a certain area. The health care provider observes the disease or problem area, and to perform catheterization procedures in which a therapeutic device used to dilate blood vessels or perform other interventional procedures is inserted into the patient.
Medical facilities are increasingly using angiographic systems at low radiation levels to reduce X-ray doses, but low radiation levels also lead to X-ray noise that reduces the device's visibility. To support the work of angiographic systems in medical institutions at low doses of radiation and increasingly compact therapeutic devices that reduce the burden on patients, Shimadzu has developed SCORE Opera, an image processing technology that uses AI to ensure the safety of catheterization procedures even at low doses of radiation.
The concept from Shimadzu is based on three important design principles, and it is designed to address the most complex issues in modern healthcare:
- Improving the quality of treatment while fully protecting the health of healthcare professionals and patients;
- Providing stress-free work and workflow for health care professionals in a race where every minute and second counts;
- Providing a state-of-the-art medical environment without sacrificing a sense of user satisfaction once the system is implemented and a stress-free workflow for healthcare professionals.[1]
