SIEMENS SIEMENS SIEMENS HeartSweep is a rotational angiography acquisition mode that involves a pre- SIEMENS set rotation of the C-arm around the patient. Artis Artis one The system moves the C-arm along a path containing multiple positions and rtis one Artis one images are acquired with a CARD acquisition mode.
