Release date: 2016-11-02

The "Revolution CT" scanner developed by the GE Healthcare team in Israel.

The Israeli hospital has finally come up with a new CT scanning technology that is simple and quick to operate and can reduce radiation by up to 82%.

The new scanning technology developed by General Electric (GE) Medical Group and its Haifa engineering team is called “Revolution CT” (meaning “revolutionary CT”), and Sheba Medical Center near Tel Aviv became the first Israeli to use the technology. hospital.

The “Revolution CT” is equipped with GE's next-generation low-dose technology that reduces CT scan radiation by up to 82% while maintaining the same image quality. General Electric said in an e-mailed statement that the scanner produces 50% less noise than previous generation scanners, while providing more room for patients. With a wide range of scanners, healthcare organizations can scan all organs in the brain, heart, liver and pancreas in less than a second, reducing patient closure.

Because the scanner runs extremely fast, the patient may no longer need to take medication to lower the heart rate before performing a diagnostic heart exam, and the machine will also collect functional and anatomical information at a time.

The General Electric Medical Engineering team in Israel played a key role in the development of the “Revolution CT”. The team developed hardware devices and related software that collect data generated during CT scans, enabling the data to be converted into clinical images for medical reading.

Although "Revolution CT" has been put into commercial use around the world, it is the first time in Israel.
