Le Van Thinh Hospital in Thu Duc District has been tirelessly working to meet the increasing demand for medical examinations and treatment. By expanding its infrastructure and upgrading to the SOMATOM go.Top computed tomography system, the hospital has significantly improved patient care. The new system has allowed for faster scans, reduced waiting times, and increased workflow efficiency. Le Van Thinh Hospital has also successfully implemented the Mobile Workflow feature to ensure the safety of patients and technicians, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. With Siemens Healthineers' cutting-edge technology and collaborative efforts, the hospital is striving to enhance medical examination and treatment capacity while providing access to advanced procedures like early low dose lung screening.

Le Van Thinh Hospital, situated in the vibrant area between Ho Chi Minh City and Thu Duc, has made significant strides in healthcare provision. With a focus on expanding infrastructure and medical equipment, the hospital has advanced to Grade I according to Ministry of Health standards. However, the COVID-19 pandemic posed challenges to healthcare access. In response, Le Van Thinh Hospital implemented the SOMATOM go.Top CT system, addressing the need for efficient workflow and infection control.

The Mobile Workflow feature of SOMATOM go.Top has been instrumental in ensuring the safety of patients and healthcare workers during the pandemic. By enabling flexibility and mobility, the hospital maintains its capacity to conduct CT scans while safeguarding against the risk of infection. Additionally, the integration of the Tin-filter technology in the CT system reduces radiation dose, allowing for the implementation of low-dose lung scanning. This advancement opens doors for early detection of lung cancer, expanding the hospital's medical portfolio.

Le Van Thinh Hospital remains committed to improving healthcare quality and accessibility. Through the partnership with Siemens Healthineers, they continue to pioneer breakthroughs in medical imaging, ultimately enhancing patient care and outcomes.
