Norfolk and Norwich trust streamlines CBCT service

Patients at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust are now benefitting from a streamlined cone beam CT (CBCT) service. Previously, patients could be seen at the trust but then needed to be referred to London to receive examinations for maxillofacial surgery, otorhinolaryngology and cervical spine examinations. Patients not only faced a long journey for their examination, but also a delay in receiving results.

In order to offer patients a complete dental service, the trust contacted FUJIFILM Medical Systems for help in finding the right CBCT solution. Working in collaboration with senior account manager Iain Sims, the trust found the NewTom GiANO HR met its needs. The system offers complete hybrid CBCT for 2D and 3D imaging, with high resolution images that capture the smallest details.
