Little Falls Hospital announces that patients and physicians in the region can now access the latest diagnostic imaging technology from Philips Medical Systems.  Our new CT (computed tomography) scanner produces crisp, detailed images of the body in just seconds.  Our CT demonstrates how technology innovations are improving both the speed and accuracy of imaging results—enabling physicians to detect and treat diseases at an early stage.

CT includes technology that ensures that patients receive less radiation, which supports Little Falls Hospital’s commitment to patient safety across the entire spectrum of patient care.

“Our CT system offers an excellent combination of clinical excellence and patient safety—with the biggest benefit being increased capabilities for early detection. We’ve always put a premium on giving our physicians the best diagnostic tools—and the real winners continue to be our patient community,” said Heidi Camardello, Director of Medical Imaging of Little Falls Hospital.
