CMH's New 128-Slice Scanner

Benefits Patients, Physicians 

Clinton Memorial Hospital has added another technologically-advanced diagnostic tool that will benefit patients and the physicians who treat them.

CMH Regional Health System president and chief executive officer Dr. Michael Choo says the new CT scanner is one of the only 128-slice scanners in the area and allows clinicians to improve their clinical results with fewer resources in less time with less radiation for the patient. A host of ergonomic features increase patient comfort and operator convenience while making procedures safer and more efficient, Dr. Choo said.

"This technology enables us to perform non-invasive vascular testing, including angiography that can show vascular diseases involving the heart, brain, and neck," says Dr. Choo.

This new equipment is part of a $10.2 million capital investment at CMH. Recent acquisitions include new digital mammography and ultrasound machines, continuous electronic patient monitoring, intravenous pumps, surgery tables and lights, pulmonary function equipment and obstetric monitoring equipment.
