Description

The GE Optima CT660 is a modern 64-slice multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) system designed for high-throughput, high-quality diagnostic imaging in multidisciplinary clinics and imaging centers. It delivers excellent image quality with minimized radiation dose and supports patients weighing up to 227 kg, making it suitable for a broad range of clinical applications—including cardiology, angiography, neuroimaging, oncology, and orthopedics.
The system combines rapid scanning performance (0.35-second gantry rotation), a wide 40 mm detector coverage, and a powerful 72 kW generator, enabling sharp, motion-free images—even at high scan speeds and in large-body-habitus patients.
