Scanning just became more sustainable than ever before. |
Saving power outside clinical hours
Gantry/couch, generator main circuit, CPU, and monitor power turned OFF when not in use.If the console is turned OFF with the power supply mode set to the synchronized-switching mode, the power of the detector is automatically turned OFF.
Energy saving scanning
More energy-efficient scanning through PUREINSIGHT Detector, Precise IQ Engine (PIQE), Advanced intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE), SUREExposure 3D, Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction (AIDR 3D).ONE hybrid
A thoughtful design feature that minimizes power consumption and reduces the carbon footprint, the hybrid drive converts energy during deceleration of the gantry, generating electricity which is recycled to power gantry components.
Weight/Space
Real Resource Savings
Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition saves space with the smallest footprint in its class. Its compact and space saving dimensions contribute to easy installation without large construction with a wide bore 80 cm, flared gantry, delivering comfortable exams for patients and easy to access to patients from the front or rear of the gantry.

Innovative hardware solutions designed for sustainability
Compact look despite wide bore
In its segment, only Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition has an 80 cm wide bore.Its round face design maintains a compact look, in spite of the bore size
 |
Optimizing hardware
The size of the keyboard and control panel has been optimized, which saves space for other peripheral equipment while providing the 27-inch monitor for easy viewing.Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition has two software touch panels, whereas previously patient positioning was carried out with buttons only.
Gloss coating
As procedure numbers increase so does the time required for cleaning. New gloss coating allows for easier and faster cleaning which saves time between procedures, allowing you to quickly proceed to the next patient.Reduced materials
Moving from the USB option to e-licensing which reduces material, transportation and disposal loads.
Workflow
Our Advanced Workflow Solutions
With high staff and energy commitments, every second counts in medical imaging. AI-supported imaging solutions mean faster procedures and greater diagnostic confidence.
Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition leverages AI and automation to create an efficient and eco-friendly workflow. By reducing hardware needs through software upgrades and simplifying system operations, it reduces workflow steps and saves scan planning time. Easy to use and easy to learn console operation optimizes staff allocation, reducing the burden on overworked personnel and improving work satisfaction. The system also enters power-saving mode automatically, reducing standby power consumption. Enhanced imaging quality and protocols enable more accurate diagnosis, while lower radiation doses and reduced contrast agent use further improve patient care and environmental impact. |

Optimized Workflow for Energy and Resource Saving
Reduced burden on operators
Improvements in workflow contribute to reduction of the burden on overloaded staff members, better work satisfaction and at the same time it also support optimization and flexibility of technologist allocation.
Efficient access to diagnostic data
Features such as automatic hanging layouts and SURE Subtraction integrated into the protocol eliminate the need for extra steps for scan reading.
Improved efficiency through better image quality
Precise IQ Engine (PIQE) is available for cardiac, body and lung in 1024 matrix, improving spatial resolution with excellent low-contrast detectability, requiring no increase in radiation dose or modification of scan protocols.
CLEAR Motion Cardiac, which is Raw data motion correction, enhances one-beat cardiac imaging for improved diagnostic confidence

Reduction of dose, less overscanning
A recent study shows the reduction of overall radiation dose and less overscanning with automatic scan planning.
Reduction of contrast agents
Iodine mapping SCT provides excellent visualization of the contrast enhanced region, which may contribute to the overall reduction of contrast agents.
Low dose lung exams
SilverBeam with AiCE can provide a low dose exam for lung screening.
Circular Economy
Innovative Circular Economy Initiatives

ReuseProduct Take Back Policy Canon Medical collects end-of-life products from medical facilities, selects usable parts, reconditions them, and reuses them as usable parts again. This reduces waste and the burden on the environment. Dismantling medical devices and identifying usable parts requires a certain level of skill.We have been fully engaged in this activity since 2015 and reused approximately 1.5 tons of parts in the fiscal year, 2023. |
 |
RecycleCanon Medical develops products that promote a circular economy by designing and manufacturing products using recyclable parts. Canon Medical actively collects and reuses parts that can be used in new products after they have been used and discarded. In addition, for equipment collected for reuse of parts, we follow Canon Medical's recycling operation rules for residual materials after parts are collected. |
Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition is designed with circularity in mind, using recyclable materials and achieving an 88% recycling rate at disposal. Key recyclable components include iron, aluminum, lead, and FRP batteries. The system complies with global environmental regulations, such as RoHS, REACH, and WEEE, to avoid hazardous substances. Additionally, efforts are made to minimize waste through reuse of X-ray tubes, reducing environmental impact. The packaging also adheres to regulations in various regions, and Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition ensures minimal CO₂ emissions during transportation, contributing to an eco-friendly product lifecycle.

Packaging / Logistics
Greener Transport, Distribution and Logistics
Canon Medical is striving to reduce the CO₂ emissions of product transportation through a modal shift from truck and air transportation to rail and ship transportation.
Introducing a new concept for equipment transportation, we have started using dedicated shipping containers, eco-friendly packaging material (biodegradable fibers, etc.) and only FSC certified wood.
We are focused on reducing the amount of packing materials used for transporting products by simplifying the packing process and decreasing the number of units for each system. Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition's packaging is eco-friendly, using 76.1% wood, 15.4% cardboard, and only 8.5% plastic. By reducing packaging materials for CT gantry covers and switching to steel frames for Japan transport, wood waste is minimized, enhancing sustainability.
