Philips has introduced Rembra, its next-gen radiology CT system designed for acute and high-demand imaging. It will be showcased publicly for the first time at ECR 2026.

According to the company, Rembra was engineered to meet the challenges of rising patient volumes, growing clinical complexity, and workforce shortages. It brings together advanced detector technology, ultra-fast scan and reconstruction speeds, and streamlined workflows.

The next-gen CT boasts a reconstruction speed of up to 106 images per second. The speed aims to help radiologists and clinicians access images quickly in stroke, trauma, and other urgent cases. It can also support 270 exams per day.

Rembra features an 85 cm bore to facilitate patient access and positioning, which can help improve comfort for trauma, bariatric, and interventional cases. Its 60-cm standard field of view (sFOV) and 85 cm extended field of view (eFOV) are largest in their class of frontline radiology CT systems, Philips said. Its patient table has a scan range of up to 2.3 meters and gantry-to-tablespace of 46 cm for flexible patient positioning.

“Rembra is built for the realities that clinicians face every day,” said Dan Xu, Business Leader for Computed Tomography at Philips. “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.”

The CT’s NanoPanel Precise XD high-density detector was designed to work hand-in-hand with artificial intelligence (AI). It offers in-plan spatial resolution of 23 line pairs per cm for sharp detail and visualization of fine anatomical structures down to 0.25 mm. A 2D anti-scatter grid provides a strong scatter rejection to preserve image clarity in challenging patient types.

It was built for operations at high-altitude environments up to 5,000 meters and supports a system lifetime of up to 20 years with required maintenance and upgrades. The company’s “Tube-for-Life” service program also covers tube replacement costs for up to ten years.

“In interventional and high acuity settings, precise access and efficient positioning are essential,” said Professor Olivier Rouvière, MD, Ph.D., Head of Department at Hospices Civils de Lyon (Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Lyon). “Rembra’s 85 cm bore supports improved access as well as faster and safer positioning of long needles and instruments in complex procedures.”

Last month, Philips announced availability of the InkSpace Imaging Snuggle pediatric body array coil for its 3T MRI systems.
