Northwestern Medicine McHenry Hospital in McHenry, IL recently installed a new fluoroscopy system for its endoscopy program. The Omega E-View.AI is the most advanced interventional system available and the only ERCP fluoro system proven to reduce radiation exposure by up to 84%.
Dr. A. Samad Soudager led the effort to install a new fluoro system at McHenry Hospital. He wanted a system with a smaller footprint and available with a mobile table. Dr. Soudager also wanted a system they were already familiar with and that was easy to use. The E-View.AI checked all of those boxes.
McHenry Hospital is part of Northwestern Medicine and has been recognized with an America’s 250 Best Hospitals Award and a Patient Safety Excellence Award. The radiation safety provided to patients and staff by Omega’s technology continues McHenry’s strong patient safety efforts.
Northwestern Medicine is an integrated healthcare system that brings together physicians and researchers from around the world to the Chicago area.
With a mission to prevent, diagnose, and treat disorders of the digestive tract and associated organs, Northwestern Medicine Gastroenterology Programs bring together multidisciplinary teams to provide top-quality care. The teams at Northwestern are skilled in the latest endoscopy procedures and use leading-edge technology – like the E-View.AI.
The Omega E-View.AI offers several advantages that conventional Interventional Endoscopy systems cannot:
- AI detects the doctor’s region of interest – allowing for hands-free operation
- Maintains the full field of view (FOV) while delivering the highest level of image quality for the region of interest (ROI)
- Automatically reduces radiation exposure to patients and staff by up to 84%
The E-View.AI is the only lab designed with features specifically developed for ERCP and image-guided endoscopic procedures.
- ERCP motorized table for better patient positioning
- Large field-of-view flat-panel detector offers superior image quality
- Exclusive scatter radiation protection for staff
- Pivots out of the way for full patient access and non-X-ray procedures
Northwestern Medicine aspires to be a destination for world-class care and to be recognized globally for the advancement of healthcare. Embracing leading-edge technology like the E-View.AI from Omega is further proof of that dedication.
