Produced for Siemens - This year alone, a staggering 700,000 Americans will suffer a stroke. According to the CDC, one in four of these people will die by year's end. The numbers are staggering, but now an exciting new technology could help improve the outlook for many stroke patients. The DynaCT imaging application is a new means by which doctors are able to obtain highly detailed anatomical images. Adding it to an angiogram gives healthcare professionals a much clearer picture of exactly where a malformation is. Based on this information, doctors are able to suggest the best possible treatments. In the past, the patient had to get to a CT scan ... then go onto the treatment lab and then back to the CT scan - which is a time consuming process. Now, using the new DynaCT, this procedure can happen where the treatment occurs - on angiographic table. This new method takes much less time than the older method - and when it comes to treating strokes, time is critical. less
