CS 9300
In Office Cone Beam CT Imaging for Otolaryngology / Allergy Practices
Discover new diagnostic possibilities with the CS 9300.
CS 9300 Solution for Sinus and Temporal Bone Applications
Carestream Dental, a leader in in-office CT, provides the best-in-class hardware and software, and also helps practices with certification, credentialing, and reimbursement.
Incorporating in-office computed tomography (CT) scanners improves patient care, reduces patient cost, and increases office income for otolaryngologists. This technology, for many solo and multispecialty practices in the private sector, adds convenience and cost savings for the patient along with powerful treatment advantages.
The ability to conduct surgical procedures with intraoperative CT-guided image systems and add new procedures, such as balloon sinuplasty, also can increase practice revenue through an expanded breadth of procedures offered and efficiency in diagnosis.
Benefits and Features Include:
The American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) position statement [1] found that “point-of-care imaging represents a modality of service that is in line with the Institute of Medicine’s six dimensions of high quality care; care that is Safe, Timely, Effective, Efficient, Equitable, and Patient-centered [2]”. The CS 9300 exceeds your diagnostic requirements:
-
Safe: Superb image quality at radiation doses up to 94% less than conventional CT systems
-
Timely: Fast scan times (12-28 seconds) minimize patient motion and risk of requiring a retake
-
Effective: In a study by The Lewin Group, the authors reported that the increase in office-based imaging is a factor in the reduction of the number of more costly and riskier diagnostic procedures [3].
-
Efficient: Multiple pre-set sinus and temporal bone programs increase workflow efficiency.
-
Patient-centered: Open design and face-to-face positioning increase patient comfort and reduce the risk of motion accommodating patients of all sizes.
-
Equitable: “Point-of-care imaging provides prompt diagnosis and treatment, and fewer trips to a medical center or doctor’s office. This results in lower costs to the patient and health plan”. [2]
