Nuffield Health Cambridge Hospital has gone live with its Ultimax-i x-ray system, located in a new building, on the site of the old hospital.
Toshiba supplied an Ultimax-i C-arm with overhead tube crane and vertical chest stand, to provide a new fluoroscopy service as well as a back-up for the general x-ray room.
Radiology manager Michelle West said: “The system, which replaced an old machine, gives us more capabilities to perform different procedures. We chose it because we were impressed with the ease of use and the image quality. With the Ultimax-i, we are now able to perform interventional procedures, such as lumbar punctures, nephrostomies and joint injection.”
“Toshiba staff have been great, very helpful and the training was really flexible for our needs.”
