Niagara Health is set to revolutionize its diagnostic imaging capabilities by installing state-of-the-art CT scanners at its hospital sites in Ontario, Canada. This initiative marks Niagara Health as the first in the country to deploy Canon’s Aquilion ONE INSIGHT scanners, offering enhanced image quality, reduced radiation doses, and faster scan times. The $16-million investment will see four new scanners placed at the Marotta Family, Niagara Falls, and Welland hospitals, improving patient care through quicker and more accurate diagnostics. The upgrade is supported by the Niagara Health Foundation and community contributions, ensuring a more responsive healthcare system for the region. During the installation phase, measures like mobile CT trailers and collaboration with regional partners will maintain diagnostic services.
