accurate in imaging
Luminos Fusion’s outstanding image quality is the product of fusing
innovative technologies that have been proven across the portfolio of
industry-leading Luminos fluoroscopy systems.

The power you need

The high-frequency generator is available with either
65 kW or 80 kW and offers precise reproducibility and
short exposure times.
Combined with the CAREMATIC automatic exposure
control, you have the ability to deliver consistent high
quality results across the full range of patients and
examination types.

Where imaging excellence begins

At 783 kHU, the high anode heat storage capacity and
low-noise air cooling of the X-ray tube prevents overheat-
ing and interruptions even when you require longer
screening times or examine larger patients.

6,000 good reasons

With over 6,000 installations, the FLUOROSPOT Compact
is the digital imaging solution for all Siemens fluoroscopy
and radiography systems. It provides access to advanced
image processing algorithms to improve image quality and
reduce dose.

available reliably
Fluoroscopy examinations often deliver critical information that needs to be available
reliably and on time. This simple formula is the basis for the reliability of Siemens fluoroscopy
systems, which deliver 99.7 % uptime.

99.7 % – the figure tells a story

More than 10,000 Siemens fluoroscopy systems installed
worldwide deliver an average of 99.7 % uptime.
Considering that this includes planned downtime for
service and maintenance, this is an impressive proof of
quality and reliability – for you and your patients.

Remote service – fast response, high uptime

99.7 % uptime is impressive and fast, flexible response is
crucial in its delivery. Siemens’ powerful remote service
can detect and even correct many issues online. Should
an on-site service visit be necessary, the remote diagnosis
increases efficiency to shorten repair times.
The result is faster response and higher uptime.

Expert advice – always at your side

Using the innovative Netviewer platform, you have online
access to Siemens applications specialists. By providing
real-time image quality assessment, protocol optimization
and online training, they are able to help you maximize
the potential of your Luminos Fusion.

available easily – user interface

Luminos Fusion is easy to use. You will appreciate the fast and intuitive workflow,
and the conveniently placed controls that allow you to concentrate on your patient rather
than the system.

Imaging system – see what’s relevant
The FLUOROSPOT Compact imaging system offers direct
access to all relevant patient data and organ programs as
well as image storage, review, and archiving. With over
6,000 units installed, there is a very good chance you
have already been introduced to this intuitive menu-based
system.
Spot film device – straight to the point
The fully automatic spot film device detects the size and
orientation of the cassette and changes the collimation
to suit, while changing cassettes only requires a single
button push. This supports easier, faster and more precise
radiography.

Luminos Fusion combines excellent patient access with efficient use of space. The table
design provides access to the patient from all sides and the 160 cm longitudinal table move-
ment makes patient positioning faster and easier.

Long table movements, more coverage

Single button, easier transfer
The patient transfer pre-set buttons coordinate multiple
system movements with a single button push and bring
the table into either a horizontal or vertical position that
is optimized for moving the patient onto or off the table.
Luminos Fusion’s table adapts easily to different patient
and tube positions. Its ± 80 cm longitudinal movement
facilitates total patient coverage. Even with a maximum
tube angle, the area of interest can be brought into the
field of view.
