“The new CT scanner produces diagnostic quality images with information that we, as surgeons, can immediately act upon-allowing us to potentially change course during surgery if needed,” said Dr. When connected to NGMC’s image guided surgery system, Airo also offers a GPS-like navigation system for the human body that potentially increases surgical accuracy. With Airo CT, the portable, 32-slice CT scanner allows surgeons to see how procedures are progressing after each step of the surgical process. Prior to Airo Mobile Intraoperative CT, surgeons needed to complete the surgical procedure and transfer the patient to a radiology room to take new images. Surgeons at NGMC Gainesville are the first and only physicians in Georgia to utilize the advanced imaging capabilities of Airo ® Mobile Intraoperative CT (computed tomography), a new CT scanner that gives surgeons precise and real-time information during surgery to make decisions on the fly and ensure success. – Patients undergoing specialized surgery at Northeast Georgia Medical Center (NGMC) Gainesville can rest assured knowing their physicians take advantage of the latest in medical technology.
