CRT coordinates the beating of the two ventricles by pacing both ventricles simultaneously. This differs from typical pacemakers, which pace only the right ventricle1.

Aplio CV: Premium Ultrasound
The Aplio CV features next-generation Tissue Doppler and contrast imaging technology based on Toshiba's Intelligent Component Architecture (ICA), which allows faster processing of more complex data and delivers dramatically improved image quality. ICA permits the system to perform highly complex data operations, such as Tissue Harmonic Imaging and Pulse Subtraction techniques with frequency compounding.
For high performance cardiac examinations as well as research and quantification studies, the Aplio CV offers a comprehensive package for Doppler measurements and advanced clinical data analysis, including Tissue Doppler Imaging Quantification (TDI-Q) for improved analyses for TDI images and the award-winning iASSISTTM, which allows sonographers to improve their body positioning during exams, reducing operator strain.

Aquilion 64 CFX: High-Resolution, Non-Invasive CT
The Aquilion 64 CFX features the industry's most advanced multi-detector CT imaging technology available and utilizes Toshiba's unique 64-row Quantum detector, which enables the system to deliver high-speed, high-resolution cardiovascular imaging with the lowest noise and most anatomical coverage. The system's Quantum detector enables the Aquilion to acquire 64 simultaneous slices of 0.5 mm with each 400-millisecond gantry revolution. The result is the most precise isotropic imaging of the heart, or any region of the body, during a breath-hold under 10 seconds.
