Door County Medical Center makes major upgrade with CT scanner

Your next CT scan at Door County Medical Center could be done with state-of-the-art technology after the hospital acquired the new Canon Aquilion Serve SP CT Scanner.

 

Introduced by the company last November, the Canon Aquilion Serve SP CT Scanner boasts several significant improvements aimed at getting clearer images for diagnoses and improving the patient experience. Door County Medical Center Diagnostic Imaging Manager Tonya Altmann says the artificial intelligence used by the machine will help lead to a more streamlined operation of the scanner, helping to move the patient easily and reduce the amount of exposure to the radiation used.


Altmann adds that it was important for her to have equipment like this in Door County to serve the community better. This scanner represents the first of its kind to be installed in the region.
