"This improves the quality of care tremendously in the intensive care setting," said Heidi J. Dalton, MD, Medical Director, Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. The intensive care teams and imaging teams collaborate in diagnosing right at the bedside with engagement of parents who also can help keep the patient calm and still. This truly is an example of patient/family-centered care that has excellent clinical outcomes."

The scanner also has applications in neurosurgery where it is essential to know "real-time" if a procedure has been successful before the surgery is concluded.
