TUSTIN, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Performing cardiac catheterizations through the radial artery is proven to lower the risk of vascular complications, reduce major bleeding and improve patient recovery time when compared to femoral access. Shannon Medical Center, in San Angelo, Texas, installed Toshiba America Medical Systems, Inc.’s Infinix™ CF-i single plane vascular X-ray system to conduct radial interventions more easily and improve patient safety and outcomes while reducing costs. Toshiba’s Infinix-i system enables Shannon to use the radial approach in more than 65 percent of its cases.
