MARS Bioimaging brings photon counting CT imaging to the point of care.

The Product

MARS Point-of-Care photon counting CT

Centralized CT facilities result in logistical delays, prolonged diagnosis, and higher costs. Advanced imaging systems are expensive to acquire and maintain, restricting access for smaller providers and raising per-scan expenses.


The MARS system delivers high-resolution extremity imaging with colour X-ray material detection, lower radiation exposure, and a compact footprint suitable for point-of-care use.

The Technology

Spectral Photon-counting CT

MARS photon counting detectors are capable of capturing and differentiating multiple x-ray energy levels, enabling identification and quantification of both intrinsic (e.g.,bone, soft tissue) and extrinsic (e.g.,contrast agents, nanoparticles) materials in a single scan.

Case Studies

Clinical Research Collaboration

Scaphoid bone with sclerosis

The MARS images show a comminuted transverse fracture at the scaphoid waist. Sclerosis was observed at the fracture margin seven months post injury indicating non-union. Sagittal images show collapse at the fracture site with humpback deformity. Proximal pole sclerosis was not observed.

Scaphoid fracture with sclerosis

MARS images show reduced metal artifacts at the bone-metal interface and visualisation of soft tissue in the vicinity of the implant. The MARS images show the impingement of the screw on the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal (STT) joint. Sclerosis was observed at the proximal pole of the scaphoid suggesting avascular necrosis.

Non-union with displacement

The MARS images show non-union with displacement. Small bony fragments were observed at the fracture margin. The separation between the fracture fragments was more than 3 mm. Sclerosis was not observed.
