Bone Densitometry: GE Lunar Prodigy

Lunar Prodigy's improved technology detects subtle bone changes in a variety of clinical applications and provides Advanced Hip Assessments and Dual Energy Vertebral Assessments. Utilizing Direct-digital detector technology, Prodigy delivers rapid scans, near radiographic imaging and dose efficiency three to five times better than existing fan beam systems. And its comprehensive capabilities cover a complete range of applications.

GE Silhouette/Minolta Regius (Digital)

The GE Sihouette performs the basic radiographic x-ray examinations. The image quality is excellent, patient positioning is easy, it has high-frequency generation, and minimum system maintenence.

The Minolta Regius performs similarly to conventional x-rays, but uses a special imaging detector that "reads" the body part rather than exposing it on film. Digital x-rays allow for faster results and delivery to other doctors, as the images can be viewed on a computer rather than having to send the actual film. This technique also exposes patients to less radiation, a minor risk involved in conventional x-rays.

GE Light Speed Plus Helical CT

GE Light Speed Plus Helical CT scans offer patients a shorter examination time and less exposure to intravenous contrast material, while producing a scan to detect even the smallest of lesions. These scans have a higher sensitivity and are able to detect abnormalities earlier than other machines.

PET/CT:

GE's Discovery LS, our PET/CT system generates high quality PET and CT images of a patient in a single study. Two image data sets are registered and fused to form a single image that shows the anatomical location from CT along with the metabolic activity of PET. This system combines two industry-leading technologies, the GE LightSpeed multi-slice CT system and the Advanced NXi PET scanner, to deliver a new frontier in oncology imaging.
