CARE+CLEAR
Reducing dose in interventional pro
cedures is increasingly important for
both patients and clinical staff.
In many cases, however, image quality
is the key to successful procedures.
Everything in life should be well
balanced. We can support you in
attaining a balance for your patients,
you and your staff – with a perfect
interplay of the excellent image quality
and the lowest reasonable dose.
The advantages are clear:
• Reduced radiation dose for your
patients, you and your staff
• Optimized image contrast and
sharpness without increasing dose
• Efficient and transparent dose
monitoring, reporting, and docu-
mentation
• CARE+CLEAR portfolio comes
standard with every Artis system

CLEAR
CLEAR optimizes image quality through real-time processing of the image data.
CLEARcontrol: The histogram analysis provides a more homogeneous image impression by harmonizing over- and

through windowing.
CLEARview: Dose-dependent filtering of the image data efficiently suppresses image noise, enabling clear, sharp images,
even for low-dose acquisitions.
CLEARvessel: Every pixel is analyzed in real time, and vessel edges are shown in high contrast without adding noise to the
image.
CLEARmotion: Detection of fine structures and effective compensation of motion artifacts.
Fine moving structures, such as small vessels and guidewires, are detected in the image and motion artifacts are
suppressed efficiently. The visibility of small moving vessels and guidewires is improved significantly during fluoroscopy.

CARE
CAREmonitor
CAREmonitor shows the accumulated peak skin entrance dose according to the current projection in the form of
a fill indicator on the live monitor. Any change to the C-arm, table, SID, zoom, or collimator prompts the system to
automatically update the calculation.

If the accumulated reference air kerma exceeds a configured threshold, a warning sound is given and a pop-up displays on
the system.

Using commercially available programs or in-house software, this information can be filtered for further processing, such
as dose analysis.

CLEARstent Live improves visibility of stents and balloons or other devices in real time, in relation to cardiac anatomy or
previously deployed, for cardiac interventions.
CLEARstent Live supports frame rates up to 15 fps
Works even when the balloon is moved within the coronary vessel or contrast agent is injected, allowing precise stent
positioning relative to previously implanted stents and/or vessel anatomy, therefore facilitating complex procedures
Processed images are displayed side by side with original scene on assist monitor (when present, otherwise on reference
monitor)
CLEARstent Live scenes are automatically saved to scene directory allowing for review of resulting DICOM images on any
DICOM viewer
IZ3D*
IZ3D offers automated detection and 3D analysis of single and bifurcated coronary arteries from 2D angiographic images.
Out-of-plane magnification and foreshortening errors are minimized by calculating true geometric shape in 3D space from
two 2D X-ray projections.
In stent planning mode, a virtual stent can be specified. This virtual stent is then displayed in the 3D image and
corresponding markers are overlaid onto live fluoro and acquisition.
IZ3D Store
IZ3D Store* allows to export the 3D data set generated via IZ3D. The result is stored in STL-format and can be used for
scientific 3rd party applications.

Operation
An ideal workflow requires full user operation capabilities for the system including imaging system and generator under
sterile conditions in the examination room. That way the user is able to operate the system independently without the
need to leave the examination room. The intuitive syngo operating elements allow for managing the whole process from
preparation of the patient to image post-processing in a safe, reliable, and time-efficient way.
