Friends help upgrade Stroud’s ultrasound

At the presentation of an Aplio MX at Stroud Hospital in memory of Janet Wheeler are Janet’s friend Sarah Hanson, advanced practitioner sonographer Michelle Neely, League of Friends president Dr Roy Lamb and superintendent radiographer Sue Ward.

The League of Friends at Stroud Hospital has purchased a Toshiba Aplio MX ultrasound system to replace existing equipment in the ultrasound department.  The system was presented in memory of Janet Wheeler, a former radiographer and organiser of the Friends outpatient refreshment service, whose bequest to the League of Friends made the purchase possible.  Superintendent radiographer Sue Ward said: “The sonographers in our department are extremely happy with the system; it combines high quality imaging of obstetric and non-obstetric patients with a user-friendly interface and is backed up by Toshiba’s excellent after-sales service.”
