Bringing critical care imaging to your patient with portable head CT.

Providing CT scans of the head for critically ill patients in the ICU is crucial and often challenging. Studies show that transporting patients from the ICU to the radiology department requires up to five staff members to leave their other duties behind1 but still, more than 71% of ICU patients experience adverse events during transport specifically to the CT suite.2 Additionally, scanning of ICU patients in the radiology department impacts CT availability for other patients by blocking off more than double the time of conventional exams.2,3
