Revolutionizing Patient Care in Oceania – A New Era with Canon Angio-CT and High- Definition Imaging
On Monday, 26 June, Canon Medical supported the launch of the new Canon Alphenix 4D CT (Angio-CT) at a tertiary hospital in central Sydney, Australia. This groundbreaking promises to redefine patient outcomes and revolutionize treatment across interventional radiology, interventional oncology and trauma.
The launch event showcased the efficient workflow, superb mechanical design, and unrivaled patient access of the system and its clinical benefits. The tertiary hospital in central Sydney is the first Australian site to install this state-of-the-art system. They will benefit from the combination of the Alphenix Sky + with High-Definition flat panel detector and the Aquilion ONE / GENESIS Edition CT scanner, the first of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere, and the first in the Asia Pacific region outside of Japan.
Mr. Izumi Watanabe, General Manager of the International Sales Division, Canon Medical Systems
The launch event was attended by a range of interventional radiology luminaries from the wider ANZ region, as well as key hospital staff including representatives from management, trauma and interventional radiology. Canon Medical staff including Mr. Izumi Watanabe, General Manager of the International Sales Division at Canon Medical Systems and Canon Medical Systems ANZ Managing Director Ms. Monica King, were also pleased to attend and to celebrate this important milestone installation.
After the presentations, the attendees had the opportunity to see this cutting-edge technology for themselves, with the formal opening and a tour of the new facilities. Attendees were provided with a demonstration of the key Canon Medical innovations and the speed and ease of transitioning between modalities. Comments of “look at how quickly the system moves,” “amazing working system,” and “I’m blown away by the room and the capability” were heard.
