Scan equip- ment to the public Tuesday from 1 until 3 p.m. at the hospital. Called by doctors as the “big- gest advancement in imagery in the last 30 years”, the equipment has already been used by 21 pa- tients ‘during the past 10 days and has literally revolutionized radiology, according to Kings Mountain Hospital Radiologist Dr. Ronald Toffolo. Similar equipment is in use at larger hospitals in the area, including Gaston Memorial and Charlotte Memorial. National CT Diagnostics Inc., of Lombard, Ill. own the $2.5 million equipment and is con- tracting it to the hospital on a per case basis. : Initially, the C.A.T. Scan will be located at the local hospital three afternoons a week and is a total body scanner, used by a pa- tient on order of his attending physician. Most examinations take no longer than an hour. Some are more elaborate than others. The equipment is housed in a large mobile truck unit with a A ng Bn SI Tr AB AR Mi oer He A self-contained generator which weighs 4,500 pounds. Explaining the new equip- ment, Dr. Toffelo said a C.A.T. Scan, which stands for “Com- puterized Axial Tomography”, is a special kind of x-ray that pro- duces 3-D pictures of a cross sec- tion of a part of the body. A computer makes the picture and records a slice or section im- mediately and a doctor can look at the picture on a computer ter- minal. It’s a lifesaving device, but relatively expensive. Dr. Toffelo estimated that the most complex x-ray would cost $480 and the least expensive, the scan of the head, would cost about $350, most of which is covered by a pa- tient’s insurance. A technician, a technologist, and a radiologist are with the pa- tient throughout the entire pro- cedure which is painless for the patient and which takes 20 minutes for a head scan, 40 minutes for a spine scan and 30 minutes for a stomach scan.
