Malaysia is no stranger to advances in imaging technology the country is home to some of the most cutting-edge imaging systems in the area for a variety of medical specialties, including gynaecology, cancer, orthopaedics, and cardiology.
This puts the nation in a special position to become a top destination for healthcare for patients within the nation and abroad, allowing us to provide high-quality care at reasonable costs.
Radiologists now have access to greater treatment choices to enhance patients’ quality of life thanks to technology’s profound transformation of the field. In the past, chest infections and bone fractures were diagnosed using the oldest type of X-rays, or what radiologists refer to as “plane films,” which were read in a dark room using a wet developer technique.
Radiologists and other healthcare professionals depend on medical imaging to evaluate and record the progression of a disease or the effectiveness of medical treatment by creating visual depictions using imaging techniques.
Medical imaging technologies come in a variety of forms, and each one offers a unique diagnosis or amount of information depending on the objectives of the investigation.
For instance, the imaging technologies utilised in an orthopaedic environment can identify and assess any injuries or anomalies in the bones, joints, muscles, or spine, which aids an orthopaedic surgeon in deciding the most effective course of action for the disorders.
The Malaysia Medical Imaging market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
ALTY Orthopaedic Hospital, a provider of medical services with a focus on orthopaedic and musculoskeletal diseases and surgical and non-surgical therapies, is honoured to announce the purchase of the first EOS imaging equipment in Malaysia.
For adult and paediatric patients with orthopaedic and osteoarticular diseases, such as those affecting the hips, knees, and spine, the EOS is a cutting-edge 2D/3D imaging system.
Children who require frequent imaging, such as those with spinal deformities like scoliosis, benefit most from reducing radiation exposure. The Micro Dose function further reduces radiation exposure by providing paediatric whole spine frontal and lateral images at a dose that is only comparable to a week’s worth of naturally occurring radiation4.
The EOS is a machine that uses two perpendicular X-ray beams that move vertically while scanning the patient from head to toe to produce bi-planar images. The EOS can create parallel photographs of the patients from two different viewpoints in less than 20 seconds.spent close to RM4 million on the EOS imaging system’s purchase and setup.
ALTY’s purchase of the first EOS system in Malaysia demonstrates our commitment to provide our patients with a genuine advancement in orthopaedic imaging, according to Dr. Pavandeep Singh Dhillon, Chief Operating Officer of ALTY. In order to give better orthopaedic care, the full-body, weight-bearing pictures and 3D models help us better comprehend the patient’s condition.
