GE customers track XR dose remotely
Users of Innova interventional X-ray systems from GE Healthcare can leverage the company’s remote InSite technology to collect information on procedure utilization, views, dose per procedure, and dose utilization trends. Monthly reports are available as part of GE’s newly introduced Innova Dose Reports, which uses technology initially designed to help service engineers troubleshoot problems with installed equipment. Comprehensive monthly reports are complemented by specific notifications if and when total dose exceeds their prescribed threshold.
