HSA patients now have the opportunity to benefit from the new and advanced CT scan services with the hospital installing a Revolution CT scanner. The new scanner began operation on April 26, 2021after a brief service suspension to allow for installation.
This new model produces impressive image quality and clinical abilities through the convergence of coverage, spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and spectral imaging – all in one.
“The Revolution CT allows us the ability to lower radiation doses while capturing higher quality imaging, making the process safer than before,”
“It will also make scanning challenging organs such as the heart easier and more efficient. All of these benefits will result in a significantly more comfortable and safer patient experience and contribute to better patient outcomes,” said HSA Interventional Radiologist Dr. Alessandro Lemos.
The machine is also capable of delivering high-quality vascular studies and fluoroscopy that enables accurate time image control over the entire body during interventional procedures.
This helps cut down on how much radiation the patient is exposed to. This machine can also be used for CT brain perfusions, which helps in evaluating strokes.
