Iranian Firm Manufactures 32-Slice CT Scanner Device

“Our new product is a CT scanner device with higher scanning power. At the beginning of this year, we succeeded in production of a sample of a CT scanner device, which is now designed and manufactured with 32-slice technology. Fortunately, all its technical tests have been completed, the necessary permits have been obtained, and God willing, we will soon enter the mass production stage,” said Hojjat Qassemi, the plant manager of the knowledge-based company.

“This device has the largest number of imaging sections currently being produced in Iran, and enjoys high-level technical features,” he added.

“This device has now entered the commercial preparation phase and is ready to be presented to the market,” Qassemi said.

In a relevant development in 2024, an Iranian knowledge-based company had also succeeded in designing and manufacturing a micro CT scanner device for the first time in the country.

“Our knowledge-based company manufactures advanced X-ray imaging devices and is the first and only manufacturer of industrial and medical micro-CT scanning device in Iran and the Middle East,” said Hossein Qadiri, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.

“This advanced and powerful imaging technology is used for 3D imaging of all objects with micron resolution, which enables non-destructive evaluation and analysis of micron structures and porous environment of various samples,” he added.

Micro-CT is a 3D imaging technique utilizing X-rays to see inside an object, slice by slice. Micro-CT, also called microtomography or micro computed tomography, is similar to hospital CT or “CAT” scan imaging but on a small scale with greatly increased resolution.

Samples can be imaged with pixel sizes as small as 100 nanometers and objects can be scanned as large as 200 millimeters in diameter.
