THE RADIOLOGY DEPARTMENT
Main X-RAY
The main x-ray department is located in the centre of the ground floor of the hospital and is ideally placed to offer a diagnostic imaging service.
The main department comprises six x-ray rooms; there are two fluoroscopy rooms (Philips Xper Allura and Siemens Axiom Sireskop. The Allura was commissioned in February 2011) and general rooms. A purpose built x-ray room opened in April 2005 in the A&E Department.
The main department’s PACS system is an Agfa Impax network. This was upgraded to the latest AGFA system with the AGFA Enterprise Imaging System which has been in place since January 2019. Soft copy reporting is provided for all plain film examinations. All the images are now available via the hospital intranet in all clinical areas. Images from CT, MRI, ultrasound, and fluoroscopy are available on the PACS system. This is integrated with a voice recognition system and nearly all reporting is now undertaken with voice recognition.
There are four satellite x-ray departments, one at Newmarket, one at Thetford, one at Sudbury and one, managed by the practice, at Botesdale. Plain radiographic images from these hospitals are reported at the West Suffolk Hospital.
Ultrasound
Within the main x-ray department are two ultrasound rooms, both equipped with Canon i700 units purchased in 2020, together with a new Canon Xario 200G to assist with interventional procedures. There are plans for a third room to address rising demand. A Canon i700 also provides DVT ultrasound and a Toshiba APLIO_500 has been provided for ultrasound in Outpatients. Sonographers also undertake DVT scanning and some inpatient work as well as obstetrics and gynaecology scanning and vascular work. Ultrasound is also undertaken at Newmarket Community Hospital which is shared by Radiologists and Sonographers performing OP and GP work.
CT
There are three GE 64-slice CT scanners. There are teleradiology links to the consultants’ homes for viewing all imaging modalities when on-call. Home reporting is actively encouraged. Overnight CTs are reported by an offsite reporting company from 8pm (4Ways).
MRI
This department, near the rear entrance, is fitted with 2 Siemens 1.5T Magnets; Wide Bore Siemens Aera and a Symphony TIM magnet. These two machines were installed in 2014, one new and one upgraded. There are plans for a third scanner to accommodate increasing demand.
