UT Spine Center adds region’s only advanced imaging system

The Spine Center at the University of Texas Health San Antonio has become the first facility in South Texas to add EOSedge, a state-of-the-art imaging system that provides a full-body scan in 20 seconds with less radiation exposure than traditional X-rays and CT scans.

The technology combines several imaging techniques to better diagnose and treat back pain, addressing the root cause of back and neck conditions, according to a Dec. 6 press release. 

EOS provides the system’s spine team with high-quality full-body images and accurate 3D measurements. 

The machine is also easily accessible for a wide range of patients because it stands upright, allowing individuals to walk in and stand. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
