A New Step in Medical Technology Investment in the Mekong Delta

Guided by its mission of “dedicated care,” Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital continues to make its mark on healthcare in the Mekong Delta with the official launch of two advanced diagnostic imaging systems: the SIGNA™ Hero 3.0 Tesla MRI scanner and the Revolution ES 256-slice MSCT (multi-slice CT) scanner.

This is an important step in the hospital’s strategy to strengthen its clinical capabilities. It helps shorten diagnosis time and supports early detection of disease, particularly in cardiology, neurology, musculoskeletal medicine, and oncology.

Earlier, in 2024, the hospital invested in and put into operation a biplane digital subtraction angiography (DSA) system, which effectively supports cerebral and coronary interventions, emergency stroke care, and congenital heart disease procedures. The combination of DSA, MRI, and MSCT creates a comprehensive diagnostic and treatment capability, allowing people in the Mekong Delta to access advanced techniques locally, without having to travel to central-level hospitals.

Modernizing the Care Environment: Toward a Safe and Welcoming Experience

Alongside equipment investment, Hoan My Cuu Long continues to improve its facilities and operating processes to be more welcoming and convenient while ensuring safety and efficiency.

The outpatient area, inpatient area, and the diagnostic imaging and paraclinical systems have all been upgraded in a consistent, modern manner. This creates airy, comfortable care spaces that help patients feel at ease throughout treatment and recovery.

Thanks to smart healthcare management technology, the patient journey has been optimized, with shorter waiting times and a better, more satisfying customer experience.

Advanced Technology: Accurate Diagnosis and Early Detection of Complex Conditions

3.0 Tesla MRI: In-Depth Diagnosis from the Brain to the Spinal Cord

The SIGNA™ Hero 3.0 Tesla MRI system from GE Healthcare (USA) has a magnetic field twice as strong as that of conventional MRI scanners, producing images with markedly higher resolution, sharpness, and detail.

This technology is especially useful for examining the brain, spinal cord, heart and blood vessels, abdomen, and musculoskeletal system, as well as for cancer screening. It enables early detection of small lesions and cerebral microvascular changes that older techniques may miss.

The 3.0 Tesla MRI also shortens scan times and improves patient comfort, making it safe for those who need regular check-ups or repeated screenings.

256-Slice MSCT: Fast and Safe Coronary Artery Screening

The Revolution ES 256-slice MSCT is an advanced CT system with a rotation speed of just 0.28 seconds per rotation, capable of completing a full-body scan in only a few seconds.

The device not only reduces X-ray dose but also enables non-invasive coronary angiography, helping detect early signs of arterial stenosis, myocardial ischemia, vascular occlusion, tumors, and vascular malformations.

In addition, its high-resolution 3D image reconstruction allows physicians to assess tissue, bone, vessel, and organ lesions in detail, supporting precise treatment planning, especially in trauma cases and whole-body cancer screening.

Biplane DSA: Precise and Safe Vascular Intervention

In operation since 2024, the biplane DSA system enables physicians to examine and treat cerebral, cardiac, and visceral vascular diseases with high precision.

The system can image simultaneously from two different angles and provides detailed 3D views of vascular structures. This allows rapid management of stroke, aneurysm, coronary stenosis, and complex cerebrovascular disease, improving survival rates within the emergency “golden hour.”

Commitment to the Health of the People of the Mekong Delta

Dr. Nguyen Phi Hung, MD, PhD, Medical Director of Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital, shared:

“Investing in the 3.0 Tesla MRI and 256-slice MSCT systems is a strategic move that helps the hospital complete its clinical capabilities and serve the community better. We want people in the Mekong Delta to have access to high-quality healthcare, with early diagnosis and effective treatment right where they live.”

About Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital

Founded in 2007 and a member of the Hoan My Medical Corporation, Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital is a reputable private healthcare facility in Can Tho City, serving millions of patient visits across the Mekong Delta region.

The hospital provides general medical services with a highly qualified medical team, specializing in Cardiology, Neurology and Stroke, Gastroenterology, Musculoskeletal Medicine, and Oncology.

Guided by its motto of “dedicated care,” Hoan My Cuu Long continues to invest, innovate, and improve in order to deliver comprehensive, high-quality, and standard-setting healthcare services to the people of the Mekong Delta.

Special Offer for Customers

Hoan My Cuu Long Hospital is currently running a promotion of up to 25% off its brain stroke and myocardial infarction screening packages. These screenings are performed directly on the 3.0 Tesla MRI and 256-slice MSCT systems, which can detect brain and coronary artery lesions at an early stage, even before symptoms appear.

Proactive early screening not only helps identify hidden risks but also creates an opportunity for timely intervention, minimizing severe complications and protecting long-term health against sudden cardiovascular events and stroke.
