A transformative endoscopy and interventional radiology suite has officially opened at Banner Boswell Medical Center. This wing is equipped with the most advanced technology for complex biopsies, therapies and endoscopies, thanks to a $15 million investment funded in part by Sun Health, a philanthropic partner of Banner Boswell and Banner Del E. Webb Medical Center.
The Banner Boswell Medical Center Interventional Radiology and Endoscopy Suite will all now be housed in a single area, with procedure rooms that are triple the size of the current suites. It is supported by the latest software and algorithms, allowing for a reduction in radiation doses per procedure (to patients and providers), while also achieving a far superior end image. That enhanced visualization will give providers more confidence in taking on additional and more intricate cases, positively impacting patient experiences and outcomes.
