“As we recover from the pandemic, the next few years will be challenging for everyone in the NHS, but HHFT has chosen to invest in a long-term, innovative approach to optimizing capacity and empowering its outstanding radiology teams,” said Simon McGuire, general manager of GE Healthcare Northern Europe. “We’ll be with them every step of the way and are thrilled to be working with the Trust.”

The company also announced on April 8 that it had completed construction of a new interventional radiology suite at Oak Valley Health in Canada. The suite is the first in the country to be fitted with a GE Healthcare Allia IGS 7 system, which allows interventional radiologists to diagnose and treat complex and intricate cases using minimally invasive procedures.


It also is offering RT imaging, simulation and guidance products from its CT, MR, PET/CT and ultrasound businesses as part of a joint effort with Elekta, which will cover the treatment side, to make radiotherapy care more precise.

"Partnering with Elekta enables us to better serve health systems and cancer centers, who are seeking to better control their own cost base and build cancer care pathways with best-of-breed solutions from different vendors that are interoperable within the clinical workflow — and with a less cumbersome purchasing process," Ben Newton, head of oncology solutions at GE Healthcare, told HCB News at the time.
