Treo is an advanced concept for the future of mobile, medical imaging. Utilizing an innovative, hinged design; Treo can be wrapped around a patient’s extremities for a three-dimensional scan or used in its flat state for two-dimensional scans of larger anatomy.
Organisation
Project Brief
Empathizing with the patient’s journey is at the heart of every GE Healthcare product. The patient experience of brick and mortar medical imaging equipment ranges from inconvenient to frightening. Patients expect on-demand care, fast diagnosis of the health issue, and a precise plan forward. Professional users require medical devices that are in sync with their mobile lifestyle, unshackling them from room-sized equipment.
Project Innovation/Need
Treo is an advanced concept for the future of mobile, medical imaging. Utilizing an innovative, hinged design; Treo can be wrapped around a patient’s extremities for a three-dimensional scan or used in its flat state for two-dimensional scans of larger anatomy. Included with the Treo imaging system is a soft imaging detector pad and an app for image review. Able to go anywhere the patient is; Treo inspires to shrink, brick and mortar, medical imaging equipment to a mobile form-factor that benefits both the patient and professional.
