GUYS THEATRES Use DAAX Ltd BIOPTICS SPECIMEN SYSTEM
Theatres at Guy’s Hospital, London, have purchased a Bioptics piXarray Digital Specimen Radiography System from DAAX Ltd. Its versatility means it will be used in the General Operating Theatres area as well as clinical procedures in the Diagnostic Section of the Day Surgery Centre. Situated in Theatres, it will be used for the identification of sufficient margin in lumpectomy procedures.
Mr.Purushothan, Mr.H.Hamed, Mr.Beachey-Newman, Lead Breast Surgeon, commented,
“We have been impressed with the speed and accuracy of image acquisition. This was evident during the trial period as was the mobility of the BIOPTICS. Furthermore, our theatre staff are able to operate the system perfectly well without prior specialist knowledge”. “The BIOPTICS is easy to use and very quickly and accurately produces imaged information for me, during operative procedures. This is very helpful, as it reduces the time a patient remains under anesthetic”.
Nicola Wise, Assistant Delivery Service Manager and Lorraine Love explain “We considered other systems and chose the BIOPTICS as it was small, compact, portable and easy to use, all features that we were looking for and use everyday.”
