Toshiba / Canon Quantum CT Detector

Toshiba's solid-state CT detector technology shipped across the Aquilion family from the TSX-101A legacy era (Aquilion 16/32/64/CX) into current-generation Canon Aquilion Prime and Aquilion ONE platforms. 0.5 mm detector element size across the family — the pixel-pitch consistency that allows Aquilion 320-slice (Aquilion ONE) to scale the same detector architecture to 320 rows.

Fits

Specs

  • 0.5 mm detector element size
  • Row count: 16 / 32 / 64 / 160 / 320 depending on variant

Diagnosis

  • Ring artifact → run detector calibration; isolate to specific row.
  • Full-width banding → DAS cable / backplane, reseat before replacing detector.
  • Image-quality drift at constant dose → detector or MegaCool tube degradation; rule out tube first.

Replacement

Module-level replacement. Detector-assembly alignment and detector calibration mandatory post-swap. Detector module part numbers vary across the family by row count.
