IQon spectral CT workshop
At Philips, we see IQon Spectral CT being a disruptive new technology where spectral information is available at all times for all patients and all examinations, empowering healthcare providers to utilize this technology routinely in all CT diagnosis. This one-day workshop is aimed at existing and future users of spectral CT. Participants will learn how to access and interpret the spectral information. Case readings will be in a hands-on fashion allowing participants to master interpretation for routine and practical clinical use.
