Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE)

Welcome to the age of AI-assisted CT

AiCE is an innovative Deep Learning Reconstruction technology that’s been trained to reduce noise and boost signal to deliver sharp, clear and distinct images at speed.

AiCE images have:

  • Low Noise
  • Natural Image Texture*
  • Sharp High Contrast Resolution
  • Clear Low Contrast Detectability

AiCE is available on:

SilverBeam: Creating New Possibilities in CT Lung Screening

SilverBeam is a beam-shaping energy filter that delivers AI enhanced, high quality, low noise CT images optimized for lung screening. With continued high demand for chest CT, as well as interest in many countries in establishing national screening programs to detect lung cancer early, the new filter is being welcomed by specialists all over the world.

Deep Learning Reconstruction (DLR)

Harnessing the enormous computational power of a Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN), Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) is trained to differentiate signal from noise, so that the algorithm can suppress noise while enhancing signal. Because it is trained with advanced MBIR, it exhibits high spatial resolution. But unlike MBIR, AiCE deep learning reconstruction overcomes the challenges (image appearance and/or reconstruction speed) in clinical adoption.

Deep Learning Reconstruction (DLR)

All Body Imaging

AiCE brings enhanced anatomical resolution across many body regions including brain, lung, cardiac and musculoskeletal scans.

Clinical Gallery

“The AiCE implementation was easy and just turned ON by the Canon application specialists. We scan approximately 80 patients per day and therefore high throughput is essential for our site. AiCE is implemented into our protocols helping to streamline our daily workflow.”

“Tomorrow’s radiology available today”

Listen to Ewoud Smit, MD, PhD, from Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, the Netherlands, explain how AiCE has won over even the most

conservative radiologists in his department by offering them more diagnostic confidence.

Integrated Intelligence

Sharp, clear and distinct images. At a low dose.

Watch Professor Matthias Prokop, MD, present the evolution of deep learning reconstruction technology in radiology and how Canon’s Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine makes a difference for improved clinical decision making.

PIQE delivers three key benefits; denoising, k-space upsampling and ringing reduction by utilizing two types of Neural Networks. The result is high-quality images achieved even with short scan times.
