Today, in 2012, our imaging technology has come a long way, but the images are no more secure or private than they were when we started decades ago. Clinicians want the most detailed imagery they can get when making a diagnosis. If we think about sending these large images, we quickly see the magnitude and complexity of the healthcare clinician’s use; these images are only dwarfed by the CGI industry.

At RSNA 2012, GE Healthcare introduced the 510(k) pending Silent Scan, a revolutionary technology designed to address one of the most significant impediments to patient comfort — excessive acoustic noise generated during an magnetic resonance imaging (MR) scan. Conventional MR scanners can generate noise in excess of 110 dBA (decibels) levels, roughly equivalent to rock concerts, and require ear protection. GE’s exclusive Silent Scan technology is designed to reduce MR scanner noise to near ambient (background) sound levels and thus can improve a patient’s MR exam experience.
