Mobile CT Scanner

The Design Challenge -

Traditional mobile CT scanners are bulky, poorly maneuverable, and intimidating to patients. Key hurdles include a tight 32 cm gantry that bumps shoulders, an exposed interface prone to accidental activation, and an industrial design ill-suited for specialized clinics.

The Design Solution -

Studio Backs designed a seamless, consumer-oriented scanner with small footprint and smooth integrated surfaces that improve mobility, prevent damage, and support perception of hygiene, non-intimidating presence. The solution optimizes patient safety and comfort by combining shoulder-detecting gantry sensors, an overhead monitoring camera, and folding radiation shields. Usability is enhanced through an iconic concentric handle around the gantry core, onboard rear storage for headboards, a recessed operator interface, and a power-cord option to eliminate heavy battery weight.
