Clinical Use of Scanora 3D

After seminar in the Helsinki we decided to get Scanora 3D imaging machine to our hospital. The use of a newly installed Scanora 3D system reports in the diagnosis of various diseases of the ear, nose and throat. We got the machine from Tampere where it is installed in a moderate sized private radiology clinic. After three months of use and since the system was an installed patient with acute and chronic sinusitis, temporal bone diseases and inner ear anomalies have been studied by personal from hospital to analyze the safe use of this new technique in various ENT diseases.

Family connections do matter

As our parents, grandparents and other loved ones get older, the roles of the giving and receiving care will turn upside down. These aging senior relatives often live some distance away, but we still try to make our best to help them in their old age, even if the day to day life will place its challenges for taking care of them. In western world the senior care has been mostly taken over by the state and the society, but despite the advanced systems of elderly care, senior people still do need help from their younger relatives. Especially experiences of loneliness and being set aside from the society are the problems that seniors face and in which relatives are in the key position.
