Dankook University Hospital

OMNI Legend 32 AI-assisted PET-CT imaging

Dankook University Hospital reported roughly halving scan duration after installing an AI-assisted PET-CT scanner

WorkingCompany's own claim

Problem

PET-CT examinations required patients to remain in the scanner while clinicians sought clear images of small lesions. Patient positioning also affected radiation exposure.

Approach

The hospital installed GE HealthCare's OMNI Legend 32 with AI image reconstruction. An AI-based 3D camera supported positioning. The scanner also captured a wider area at each table position.

Results

about halfscan duration relative to the previous approximately 20 minutes, according to the hospitalCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The reported time reduction accompanied a hardware upgrade. The hospital attributed shorter scanning to wider acquisition coverage and did not isolate AI's contribution.
