MIOT International was established as a single speciality hospital, 3 decades ago. Today, it has grown into a 1000-bed multi-speciality hospital offering 63 disciplines. It provides unparalleled quaternary care, through a dedicated team of over 250 full-time doctors.
Having begun its journey as an orthopaedic and trauma hospital, MIOT welcomed the Chief Minister’s 48-hours free accident treatment scheme. This meant that even people from the lower economic strata could afford emergency surgery. However, the safety and outcome of surgery are of vital concern. Brain and spine injuries may need complex surgery that is usually performed in ‘freehand style’. These are greatly aided by artificial intelligence and navigation. Yet, the technologies do not assure accuracy, because they are not based on real-time imaging. They are based on imaging done before the surgery.
The technologies cannot provide real-time intraoperative guidance, especially when there are live problems in the patient’s body. They also don’t lend clarity on whether the surgeon is following the correct course, while avoiding damage to structures critical to the body. This is a compromise on safety and precision.
The only way to ensure the highest accuracy and the best possible outcomes is live intraoperative
CT imaging. MIOT has created this breakthrough possibility, with Tamil Nadu’s 1st full-body mobile CT scan.
MIOT has always been a pioneer in adopting cutting-edge health care technologies in India. It introduced India’s first TrueBeam STx radiotherapy machine and first Biplane CathLab with single-platform Cone Beam CT, 3D Echo and software intelligence. It also launched South India’s first GE IQ PET/CT scan.
The hospital welcomes a new era in imaging with the full-body mobile 32-slice CT scan, Bodytom.
It is transforming surgery!
At every step of the way during a surgery, the CT scan generates REAL-TIME INTRAOPERATIVE IMAGES. It guides the surgeon in operating with the highest accuracy and ensuring total repair of the diseased tissue, with zero-compromise care.
MIOT’s mobile CT scan makes surgery faster, more accurate and 8 times safer. It helps to deliver the finest international standards in surgical care.
