When that happens, it’s easy for teamwork to weaken.
Hologic’s Fluoroscan InSight FD Mini C-arm imaging system is designed for easy positioning, flexibility and convenient mobility.
Medical Technology Management Institute (MTMI) began in 1989 when J. Ed Barnes, Ph.D., saw a need for continuing education for radiologic technologists.
After you’ve visited 82 different countries in the world – and you’re counting down the next 100 you have yet to tour – it might be easy to feel like you’ve seen nearly everything there is to see. But for globetrotter Bryan Henderson, travel represents a lifelong pursuit upon which the sun has yet to set, no matter where on the planet he’s viewing it.
The Ciartic Move, a fully motorized mobile C-arm from Siemens Healthineers with self-driving capabilities, can accelerate and standardize 2D fluoroscopic and 3D cone-beam computed tomography (CT) imaging for surgeons and operating room teams in hospitals and outpatient facilities.
For decades, radiologists were at the forefront of cardiac imaging, pioneering techniques and collaborating with cardiologists, physicists and engineers to develop modalities such as radiography, echocardiography and coronary arteriography.
The same risk factors that contribute to making heart disease the leading cause of death worldwide also impact the rising global prevalence of brain disease, including stroke, Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
