對影像學檢查與信息技術的整合技術，能夠為心臟疾病的臨床和經濟產出產生正面影響。

Siemens(Erlangen, Germany)公司提供了極其先進的影像學與臨床信息控制工具，為心臟科醫(yī)生提供了更加快速、更加有效的系統(tǒng)，能夠更早的鑒別與診斷心血管疾病。

Siemens在美國心臟學會(AHA)2005年11月在Dallas (TX, USA)科學會議上展示的系統(tǒng)包括: Somatom Sensation 64層計算機斷層掃描(CT)儀，這是一種更加快速和高級的CT系統(tǒng)，支架旋轉的速度最快達0.33妙。同時展出的syngo BEAT系統(tǒng)，綜合了心臟核磁共振成像(MRI)系統(tǒng)的優(yōu)點--形態(tài)學、功能、組織特征--只用一種工具即可展示三維(3D)冠狀血管的解剖。

New Technologies Merge Cardiac Imaging and IT
 
 
A novel integration of imaging and information technologies (IT) has been shown to provide positive clinical and financial outcomes in cardiac care.

Providing sophisticated imaging developments and clinical information management tools, Siemens Medical Solutions (Erlangen, Germany) supplies cardiologists with faster, more efficient systems, designed to identify and diagnose cardiovascular disease earlier.

Systems presented by Siemens at American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions in Dallas (TX, USA) in November 2005 included: the Somatom Sensation 64 computed tomography (CT) scanner, a fast and advanced CT system with a gantry rotation speed of up to 0.33 seconds. Also presented at the meeting was the syngo BEAT, which combines the best of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)--morphology, function, tissue characterization--and three dimension (3D) coronary anatomy in one simple tool.
