By: - April 11, 2022

Cebu Doctors University Hospital is now equipped with new imaging technologies that will allow an improved and more accurate diagnosis.

With this, Cebuanos are assured of the high-quality healthcare services that they deserve.

Cebu Doctors University Hospital launched its recently acquired cutting-edge imaging technologies—the Magnetom Sola Fit MRI and Mammomat Revelation Mammogram as they continue to lead healthcare innovation in Visayas and Mindanao.

Last April 8, 2022, CebuDoc launched its recently acquired imaging technologies – Magnetom Sola Fit Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Mammomat Revelation Mammography – to open new clinical possibilities and ensure better patient diagnosis. 

According to CebuDoc Group‘s President and Chairman of the Board, Dr. Potenciono Larrazabal III, innovation is one of CebuDoc Group’s core values. 

“In every investment we make, may it be upscaling our services, renovating our facilities, or acquiring the latest technology, we only have one end in mind—improve the lives of our patients and our staff,” he added.

Spearheaded by CebuDoc President Dr. Potenciano Larrazabal the launching ceremony was held last April 8, 2022.

CebuDoc is the first medical facility in the Visayas and Mindanao regions and also in Southeast Asia to install a Magnetom Sola Fit MRI with groundbreaking BioMatrix Technology that supports precise and personalized imaging with exceptional speed across an entire patient population.

“Biometrix Technology helps us overcome challenges by automatically adjusting to the patients’ differences in characteristics. Through this, we can now personalize examinations and expand precision in our diagnosis,” said CebuDoc’s Department of Radiology Chairman Dr. Philip Anthony Larrazabal.

Biomatrix Technology also addresses the patient’s anatomical and physiological differences to help healthcare providers quickly perform a full range of routine and complex examinations while delivering consistent results.

Magnetom Sola Fit can help decrease rescans and increase productivity to improve cost-efficiency and overall patient experience.

“We can now provide much crispier, clearer imagines and do examinations faster. So, we can image more areas of the body without compromising patient comfort. We can give them a better patient experience, and it’s easier for physicians to convince their patients to have an MRI done. It’s faster and more comfortable,” said CebuDoc MRI Section Head Dr. Maria Josefina Sarino-Alfonso.

Aside from the MRI, CebuDoc also acquired the latest mammography technology, the Mammomat Revelation, to help experts provide accurate findings.

Mammomat Revelation is designed to reduce discomfort while providing the highest depth resolution available, resulting in outstanding image quality.

With its use, patient’s undergoing breast imaging will no longer feel pain or discomfort during the process.

“With this superior system performance increases early cancer detection, which is the goal of breast imaging—to catch cancer at its earliest form. Early detection, immediate treatment, early stage of disease, means good prognosis,” said Breast Imaging Section Head Dr. Christine Esther Suarez.

With the new mammogram technology, physicians at CebuDoc will be able to detect cancer at its early stages and recommend curate and immediate treatment.

Moreover, the new wide-bore MRI that uses AI technology improves the overall imaging experience, examination speed, and patient comfort, raising diagnostic accuracy to a whole new level.

  • CebuDoc is the first medical facility in the Visayas and Mindanao to install groundbreaking technologies Magnetom Sola Fit MRI and Mammomat Revelation Mammogram that support precise imaging, efficient procedure, and consistent results.
