Step by step emotional support
To calm nervous patients during the introduction of radio-pharmaceuticals, uptake room walls are bathed in a warm colored Ambient Cove Lighting glow and a comfortable chair invites relaxation. A focused task light directly over the chair supports the clinician and minimizes disruption during the injection.


The continuity of experience from uptake to exam room is maintained. Patients entering the exam room select from a variety of room themes by using a touchscreen tablet PC. The selected theme is reflected in an immediate change to the room environment:

 

  • Soft colored Ambient Cove Lighting washes the walls
  • Colored lighting from the SkyLight plays across the ceiling
  • Animated projected images and accompanying audio complete the scene

 

Quality, integrated care
Innovative room design promotes operational efficiency. Ambient Experience for PET/CT integrates architectural design strategies and enabling technologies to assure an optimal workflow experience. Combined with a more relaxed patient, your oncology imaging department will deliver enhanced care characterized by:

 

  • Improved patient compliance for a more effective scan

  • Better patient/staff interaction by removal of unnecessary physical barriers
