Yale New Haven Hospital’s Adams Neurosciences Center is set to transform patient care with advanced radiology technology – some of which is the first of its kind in Connecticut.
“This technology will help us expand our already advanced radiology and biomedical imaging capabilities and research,” said Cristina Fuss, MD, PhD, professor and most recently interim chair of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, Yale School of Medicine. “Imaging is obviously integral to diagnoses, but for many patients, it is a critical component of treatment plans.”
Among several pieces of technology to be housed at the Neurosciences Center will be the state’s first PET-MRI and Yale New Haven Hospital’s second iMRI. The PET-MRI combines MRI’s detailed anatomical imaging with positron emission tomography (PET), which can show areas with high metabolic activity, such as tumors. The iMRI allows surgeons to see the exact state of tissues and structures while they operate and adjust the surgical plan on the spot if needed.
