Revolution Apex Elite 3.0 is the first high-end super-speed CT system in Vietnam providing 2560 reconstructed slices, manufactured by GE Healthcare - the world's leading medical technology group. The machine uses smart spectrum technology, providing high-resolution images, minimizing the risk of missing lesions, effectively supporting doctors to diagnose accurately and in-depth in all difficult cases.
The first CT 2560 technology transfer ceremony in Vietnam between Hong Ngoc General Hospital and GE HealthCare.
Outstanding with the ability to reduce radiation dose by up to 96% compared to previous models, this new technology helps to minimize the impact of X-rays on the body, protecting the long-term health of patients, especially useful for those who need to have CT scans many times, such as cancer patients or children with weak resistance.
In addition, advanced AI technology automatically locates the exact blood vessel area, records the variation of drug flow in the body, helps optimize the imaging process and ensures high efficiency in diagnosis. Along with that is the feature of "freezing" the image with perfect sharpness, suitable for all cases from adults to children.
2560-slice CT technology is considered a breakthrough in helping to quickly and early detect dangerous diseases such as cancer, stroke, cardiovascular disease, pediatrics, musculoskeletal diseases... helping doctors make accurate diagnoses even when the patient does not have obvious symptoms, promptly providing treatment plans and preventing serious complications.
The technology transfer ceremony took place solemnly with the presence of the representative of the US Consulate. The cooperation with the leading US equipment company to apply the world's most advanced CT scanning technology demonstrates Hong Ngoc General Hospital's strong determination to expand international cooperation, towards a common commitment to improve the quality of health care for the community.
GE HealthCare is committed to accelerating the transfer of leading medical solutions to Hong Ngoc General Hospital.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Pham Hong Son, General Director of GE HealthCare Vietnam, emphasized: “ Converging 3 strengths of super sharp - super fast - super safe and applying artificial intelligence with powerful deep learning capabilities, the 2560-slice CT system has been revolutionizing the future of the field of diagnostic imaging globally.
Through this transition milestone, GE HealthCare hopes to further improve the quality of medical examination and treatment, raising the level of medical services and healthcare to new standards for the Vietnamese people .
Highly appreciating the superiority of the 2560-slice CT system compared to previous models, Dr. Trinh Tu Tam - Head of the Department of Diagnostic Imaging and Interventional Radiology, Hong Ngoc General Hospital - Phuc Truong Minh, shared: " The remarkable improvement in both hardware and software of this system brings many optimizations to patients such as fast scanning time, good image quality and reduced radiation dose.
Previous challenges in coronary angiography for patients with arrhythmia and atrial fibrillation have been resolved, especially young children can have whole-body CT scans without the need for anesthesia like the old generation of machines .
The 2560-slice CT system is put into routine operation at Hong Ngoc General Hospital.
With the orientation of a high-tech hospital, Hong Ngoc General Hospital not only owns the world's leading medical equipment but also affirms its commitment to pioneering the application of new technology for the first time in Vietnam, providing comprehensive and optimal solutions for diagnostic imaging to serve patients safely and effectively.
The strategy of investing heavily in human resources and modern technology has shown the success of the Hospital in early detection and treatment of many complex cases, creating a medical mark and continuing to contribute to the development of medicine domestically and internationally.
