SmartPath to Elition X allows to advance MRI cancer care at KHCC, Amman, Jordan

  • Duration 3:1

In Jordan, the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) is a symbol of hope for many cancer patients in the Middle East. As a top oncology center, KHCC treats patients from Jordan and nearby countries, providing advanced care while cancer cases are increasing. This surge strains the center’s resources, and despite having five MRI scanners, patients may wait up to four weeks. KHCC is committed to overcoming these challenges with a focus on quality care, innovative partnerships, and the pursuit of better technology to offer hope and healing.

  • 00:30 Tangible results after the upgrade
  • 01:41 Benefits for the cancer patients

KHCC has become a premier cancer center in the region, handling the most challenging cancer cases. With regional instability and a lack of specialized centers, KHCC's facilities are heavily used, leading to long waiting lists. As a non-profit, KHCC aims to maximize investments and extend the life of existing machines. Swift, precise MRI scans are vital, but older scanners can slow down workflows and extend waiting times.

Philips SmartPath to Elition X provided KHCC with a cost-effective MRI upgrade, optimizing existing systems without the financial burden of new equipment. This upgrade enhances precision in clinical imaging, automates workflows, and speeds up exam times. Innovations like the ComfortPlus mattress and quieter scanning environment make procedures less intimidating for patients.

The integration of AI-driven SmartSpeed technology has transformed MRI at KHCC, making scans up to three times faster [1] and improving image quality. This supports more accurate and timely diagnoses, significantly enhancing the patient experience.

KHCC's commitment to patient care serves as an inspiration for hospitals throughout Jordan and the Middle East. By combining resourcefulness with the right technology and strategic partnerships, KHCC demonstrates that quality care is possible even in challenging circumstances.

We have reduced the number of patients requiring anesthesia, which is a great benefit for them.
