Northwestern Medicine recently opened its brand new hospital, Lake Forest Hospital in March of 2018. Committed to delivering world-class medicine to Chicago, Lake Forest opted to outfit their new interventional endoscopy lab with an Omega E-View fluoro system.
Dr Samad Soudagar, the departments therapeutic endoscopist, performs multiple advanced endoscopic procedures in the new lab. These include, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), endoluminal stent placement, and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) techniques.
Ideal for fluoro and non fluoro cases, the Omega E-View is the only fluoro system on the market that is built exclusively to the needs of interventional endoscopy.
