BHB & Brown Darrell Collaborate On CT Service

Bermuda Hospitals Board [BHB] announced that it “will be working with the Brown-Darrell Clinic to deliver a CT service to while both its CT scanners undergo repairs.”

Dr Daniel Stovell, Chief of Radiology, comments: “Many times patients who are scanned using a CT, such as stroke patients, can use alternative modalities, such as MRI.

“For patients whose only option is a CT scan, we are very grateful to the collaboration with the Brown-Darrell Clinic who will carry out the CT scan for us. If patients who attend Emergency require a CT, they will be transported by ambulance to Brown-Darrell, then return to KEMH where diagnosis and treatment will resume.

“We apologise for anyone who is impacted. It is very unfortunate that both CT scanners have been impacted at the same time and we are working closely with the manufacturer, GE. The parts will be on-island this week and we expect the service to resume by next week.”
