Medical Diagnosis
Changes continue to emerge in the medical imaging industry and innovations are allowing hospitals to invest in smaller, more user friendly, accessible devices for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. With advances and enhancements in the technologies, smaller hospitals and doctors’ offices will have access to the medical equipment used in larger, more specialized facilities and these changes can only benefit the patient.
Through the use of digital imaging, physicians are better able to share information with members of the team via wireless communication platforms. MRIs and other digital images can be transmitted in real-time allowing the medical team to make quick, informed decisions. The technology also allows the medical team to scan images and share that information during surgical procedures allowing for in-surgery medical corrections.
Integrating intra-operative procedures with imaged guided surgery also helps provide real-time information to physicians. This benefits both patient and medical professional by increasing efficiency, reducing surgical time and freeing up medical resources in time, money and physical facility resources.
Also on the market today are imaging devices that can take a 256-slice configuration for cardiology imaging with a CT scan. This means a complete round of diagnostic tests can be performed on the heart at a single time, which reduces the patient’s exposure to radiation.
As medical devices continue to shrink in size and become more mobile, the hand held devices will be a boon to first responders, the military and medical professionals in remote areas in which the use of a large, stationary device would be impossible.
