DIMO Healthcare donated an additional workstation for the Siemens Healthineers 3 Tesla MRI Scanner at Jaffna Teaching Hospital recently, expediting MRI report generation.
The healthcare arm of DIMO, also known as DIMO Healthcare installed the MRI scanner at the Jaffna Teaching Hospital in 2020. This critical equipment serves as the sole MRI scanner within the Jaffna district’s public healthcare system, catering to a vast population across the Northern part of the country.
The new workstation empowers more radiology professionals to analyse and report on MRI findings. This expansion stems from a request by the hospital’s senior consultant radiologist, recognising the urgent need to expedite the diagnostic process. DIMO Healthcare promptly responded to this request, fulfilling a vital requirement for the hospital.
The expanded capacity creates a superior training environment for medical professionals. By examining a broader range of cases, medical practitioners can refine their skills and deliver exceptional patient care.
Chief Operating Officer of DIMO Healthcare, Priyantha Dissanayake said, “We are honoured to contribute to this impactful initiative, which elevates the efficiency of Jaffna Teaching Hospital and positively impacts the lives of countless individuals in the North-Eastern region. “This project aligns perfectly with our Sustainability Agenda 2030, which prioritises building resilient communities by fostering partnerships that empower people to thrive. Through such endeavours, DIMO Healthcare remains steadfast in its mission to build a healthier Nation, fuelling the dreams and aspirations of our communities,” Dissanayake said.
