Bedside image review aids speedy treatment
Radiographers Richard Newman and Alice Milligan, Carestream key account manager Tim Kilby and diagnostic services manager Fiona Rooke.
The radiology department at Yeovil District General Hospital in Somerset has purchased a Carestream DRX-Revolution x-ray system to enable faster mobile imaging.
Diagnostic services manager Fiona Rooke said: “Rapid image acquisition and the ability to check images at the bedside mean fewer repeats. We are able to show clinicians high quality images so clinical decisions can be made more rapidly, resulting in faster treatment for patients. The Carestream DRX-Revolution is also easy to drive and manoeuvre and the retracting column is especially helpful. It is an excellent piece of equipment which has revolutionised mobile radiography here.”
