The new ED and Trauma Center has been designed to accommodate nearly 100,000 patients each year.
It features Philips’ advanced medical solutions such as computed tomography (CT), digital radiography, ultrasound and IntelliVue patient monitors that allow a clinician to view lab results right from a patient’s bedside.
The Phoenix Children’s Hospital is reported to be the second in the US and fourth in the world, to offer Philips IQon Spectral CT scanner, which provides critical imaging of traumatic injuries, tumours, vascular structures and infections with a single CT scan.
