Royal Stoke enhances CT capacity

Royal Stoke University Hospital, part of University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust, is continuing to boost care provision as clinical demand increases and it strives to become a centre of excellence. After undertaking a Siemens efficiency project in 2012, the hospital concluded it required a new CT system in the imaging department to help enhance capacity, and chose the Somatom Definition AS+ from Siemens Healthcare.
“We have three other Siemens CT systems in the department that radiologists and radiographers are well-versed in using, and this helped with the decision to install the Definition AS+,” said superintendent radiographer Kay Jones. “Staff are already confident in working with the technology, which has been essential in helping us to continue working efficiently.”
