TRI-CITY REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER:
Tri-City Regional Medical Center in Hawaiian Gardens is adding the latest
technology to its radiological capabilities to better serve its patients. The
state-of-the-art Siemens Sensation 10 CT Scanner will be in operation by the end
of April 2005 to provide doctors with remarkable visualization opportunities
into different parts of the human body. Tri-City is the only community
hospital in the area to offer its patients one of the fastest CT scanning systems
available, said Tri-City President and CEO Art Gerrick. The $1.5 million
purchase was made possible throught the generosity of a grant from the Irving I.
Moskowitz Foundation. What makes the CT scanner especially attractive for
patients is its ability to take pictures of anatomical details that previously could
only be gained through invasive procedures. The data can then be viewed as
3-D images from any angle to give doctors the best possible information.
