Butler Memorial Hospital, part of Independence Health System, has opened its newly renovated imaging suite featuring advanced digital PET/CT technology from Canon Medical.

The newly installed Cartesion Prime Digital PET/CT system combines Canon Medical’s PET technology with its Aquilion Prime SP CT scanner.

According to Indpenedence Health System, the new system delivers higher-quality images and faster scan times along with a wider bore for improved patient comfort.

The new suite, located on the ground floor of the hospital’s Brady Street entrance, is open for outpatient testing Monday through Friday by appointment.
