Philips Incisive CT (CV variant)
Family: Philips Incisive · Modality: CT
Philips's mid-market 64 / 128-slice CT — sibling configuration to the Incisive CT base platform with cardiovascular-package licensing. Targets community cardiology and outpatient cardiac CTA programs that don't need the IQon Spectral CT dual-layer detector or premium-tier wide-detector cardiac platforms.
Distinctive technology
- 64–128 slice configurations — sufficient for routine coronary CTA at controlled heart rate.
- iPatient workflow + protocol engine — automated patient-positioning + protocol selection.
- Precise Cardiac package — ECG gating, cardiac-phase reconstruction.
- iDose / IMR iterative reconstruction (license-dependent).
- AI suite — deep-learning recon and AI-assisted measurements on configured units.

Refurb posture
