Gates Stroke Center Study Finds Toshiba America Medical Systems Aquilion ONE CT Improves Acute Stroke Diagnoses

TUSTIN, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kaleida Health’s Gates Stroke Center (GSC) at the Gates Vascular Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., a world-class neurological and stroke care center, recently completed the second phase of its study analyzing the patient and fiscal benefits of using Toshiba America Medical System, Inc.’s AquilionTM ONE CT system in diagnosing acute stroke. GSC achieved $1.31 million in annualized cost savings, a reduction in patient length of stay and improved discharge dispositions as a result of its multidisciplinary approach, enhanced education and training, and advanced Aquilion ONE CT imaging technology. These results are particularly important, as containing costs while delivering high-quality, effective care is a directive of healthcare reform. GSC was formerly the Kaleida Stroke Center at Millard Fillmore Gates Circle Hospital.
