\n\u201cPoint of Care Computed Tomography: Imaging Where You Need It\u201d<\/p>\n
\nIntra-operative Computed Tomography (iCT) in head and neck surgery is scarcely used because complex and costly equipment is usually not accessible. Yet, iCT can transform surgical techniques and improve accuracy.\u00a0 We have set out to resolve this major limitation by engineering a highly mobile, easy to use, self-shielded iCT.<\/p>\n
