Conventional CT was engineered for human hospitals. That inheritance shows up in the room you build, the power you supply and the way patients are positioned.
This page sets the two approaches side by side so you can judge the difference for your own practice.
A human CT scanner will produce excellent images of a veterinary patient. The difficulty is everything around it: the suite you have to build, the supply you have to bring in, the shielding, the cooling, and a gantry shaped for a human body.
FIDEX starts from the veterinary patient instead. That decision reduces what the building has to do, and it is why a general practice can run CT at all.

A conventional CT purchase buys you CT. Radiography and fluoroscopy remain separate machines, separate rooms, separate service contracts and separate capital lines.
