A hybrid operating room (OR) combines the capabilities of an operating room with the technologies of interventional imaging. With the combination of surgical facilities and imaging systems in one room, hybrid ORs can be used for traditional open surgeries, image-guided surgeries, or a combination of procedure types, ofering greater flexibility ...

On one end of the spectrum is the operating room (OR) environment, which is classified as a “restricted area” and needs the maximum environmental control requirements. At the other end is the exam room or emergency department treatment room, where diagnostic procedures and simple treatments are provided.

Intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (IMRI) actually allows the surgical team to get MRI scans during surgery. IMRI technology has been used in neurosurgery for some time. The surgeons in this study used IMRI during 12 spine surgeries.

In this groundbreaking clinical research facility, an operating room is linked to adjacent imaging suites, enabling the patient to remain in place while the machines—including a 33,000-pound MRI—move from one chamber to another in the midst of a surgical procedure.

A hybrid operating room is an advanced surgical theatre that is equipped with advanced medical imaging devices such as fixed C-arms, X-ray tomography (CT) scanners, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners. [1] These imaging devices enable minimally-invasive surgery.

A large control room provides visual oversight and operation of the MRI for imaging and the operating room. All suite security controls are routed through this key room and provide one centralized cockpit for MRI safety and access. Comprehensive checklists were studied for the MRI movement for diagnostic and surgical imaging. prev next

Our designs for MRI scanner suites allow for easy maintenance and replacement of technology, and built-in infection control technology allowing for rapid environmental decontamination between patients to minimise the transmission of hospital acquired infections.

IMRIS offers a ceiling-mounted iMRI System specifically for imaging during surgical procedures in a multi-room InVision Operating Suite. It is the only iMRI System in the world with a magnet that travels between the diagnostic room and adjacent operating rooms, bringing the magnet directly to …

2013年10月29日 · Both the MR-guided cardiac interventional unit at Kings College London and the intraoperative imaging suite at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery are single-room interventional facilities incorporating 1.5 T cylindrical-bore MRI scanners.

Operating room management is a serious and complex task for hospital managers and the common approach is to develop relevant standard operational procedures. From patient' and staff safety perspective operating room management should be well-studied and hospital should identify and address any potential risks.
