Philips has unveiled its next-generation radiology computed tomography (CT) system, Rembra, to address the challenges faced by acute and high-demand imaging settings.
The solution has been introduced in response to increasing global healthcare pressures such as rising patient numbers, clinical complexity, and workforce shortages.

Rembra combines advanced detector technology with ultra-fast scan and reconstruction speeds. Philips designed the system to facilitate rapid diagnosis, streamline workflows, and ensure operational consistency in frontline healthcare settings.
In emergency and trauma scenarios where imaging speed is essential, Rembra delivers reconstruction capability of up to 106 images a second.
This feature supports radiologists and clinicians in accessing images quickly for urgent cases such as stroke or trauma, potentially enabling more timely clinical decisions. It is designed to handle up to 270 exams a day.
Patient accessibility and comfort are addressed through an 85cm bore. The system features a 60cm standard field of view (sFOV) and an 85cm extended field of view (eFOV), enabling comprehensive anatomical visualisation in a single scan.

At its core is the Philips NanoPanel Precise XD detector, engineered for AI compatibility. It achieves in-plane spatial resolution of 23-line pairs per centimetre, allowing detailed visualisation down to 0.25mm. A two-dimensional anti-scatter grid enhances image clarity even in challenging cases.
AI-enabled smart workflows automate routine steps for workflow efficiency. Designed for use in environments with altitudes of up to 5,000m, Rembra supports a system lifespan of up to 20 years with required maintenance. Philips’ Tube for Life service programme covers tube replacement costs for up to ten years.
Philips CT business leader Dan Xu said: “Rembra is built for the realities that clinicians face every day. By combining our most advanced detector technology with AI-powered workflows and industry-leading speed, Rembra represents a significant step forward for high-acuity imaging, delivering speed, access and diagnostic confidence when it matters most.”
Last month, Philips introduced the InkSpace Imaging Snuggle flexible paediatric body array coil, designed for use with its 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems.
