OVERVIEW
The pinnacle of industrial CT imaging
The Canon Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition represents a new standard in veterinary diagnostic CT. Featuring a next-generation gantry and optical system, this platform leverages Canon’s latest Deep Learning Reconstruction technology (AiCE) combined with the PIQE 1024 detector matrix to bring clinical-grade precision and efficiency to veterinary imaging at every level of complexity.
Whether imaging a cat’s neurological structures or a large dog’s cardiac function, the INSIGHT Edition delivers consistent, high-quality results with dramatically reduced scan times, improving patient throughput and reducing the duration of anesthesia. Available in both new and remanufactured configurations to suit any practice size or budget.
Fastest rotation in class
.241-second minimum rotation enables cardiac and dynamic imaging previously not possible in veterinary CT.
320-row whole-organ coverage
16 cm z-axis captures entire organs like the brain, heart, and kidneys in a single rotation without table movement.
AiCE deep learning recon
AI-powered reconstruction delivers superior soft tissue contrast at reduced dose levels versus conventional algorithms.
INSTINX automated workflow
Automated scanning processes reduce variability and ensure consistent, repeatable exams across all staff levels.

CLINICAL APPLICATIONS
What this system is built for
The Aquilion ONE / INSIGHT Edition is suited for a wide range of veterinary clinical applications across companion animals and larger patients.
Cardiac imaging
Fast rotation and wide coverage enable complete cardiac studies in a single breath-hold equivalent scan cycle.
Neurological imaging
High-resolution brain and spinal cord imaging with PIQE 1024 matrix for detailed soft tissue differentiation.
Oncology studies
Whole-body coverage in a single pass supports comprehensive oncological staging and treatment planning.
Emergency & trauma
Sub-second scan times enable rapid whole-body trauma surveys for critically ill or injured patients.
