News

Newly built Spire Shawfair Park Hospital, part of Spire Healthcare, is using radiography and fluoroscopy solutions from Siemens Healthcare following the installation of an Axiom Luminos dRF and Ysio wi-D direct digital radiography system. 

 

Luminos provides imaging for diagnostic and therapeutic arthrography, hysterosalpingography, barium studies and lap-band adjustments.  The Ysio provides general x-ray imaging.

 

“For certain imaging, before the Ysio equipment was installed in both our Edinburgh hospitals, patients were asked to stand on quite a high step – this is no longer required,” said Spire Edinburgh Hospitals radiology manager Kim Hogg.  “The wireless flexibility of the Ysio wi-D has significantly improved patient comfort and ease-of-use for the radiographer.”
