GE HealthCare (GEHC) and not-for-profit, independent health system Cape Cod Healthcare in Massachusetts have kicked off a technology modernization effort that will add advanced CT and MRI technology at two hospitals.
The project includes installations at Cape Cod Hospital in Hyannis and Falmouth Hospital that will expand access to advanced imaging services, including cardiac care, according to GE HealthCare.
Planned for Cape Cod Hospital and Falmouth are the Revolution Apex and Revolution Ascend CT installations with on-device AI applications, according to GE HealthCare. Both hospitals will also get Signa Artist 1.5T wide-bore MR systems with Sonic DL for imaging protocols and image reconstruction and Air Recon DL for image reconstruction.
![Axial images from unenhanced calcium score cardiac CT (left) and curved planar reformation images from CT angiography (right) show that higher long-term exposure to air pollution is associated with greater coronary artery calcium and more obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Top row: Images in a 68-year-old male patient with higher 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (7.9 μg/m3 for particulate matter measuring ≤2.5 μm in diameter [PM2.5] and 17.4 parts per billion [ppb] for NO2) with extensive CAD (coronary artery calcium score [CACS] >1,000 and obstructive CAD [≥70% diameter stenosis]). Bottom row: Images in a 57-year-old female patient with lower 10-year mean ambient air pollution exposure (6.3 μg/m3 for PM2.5 and 4.6 ppb for NO2) with no CAD (CACS = 0 and no obstructive stenosis).](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/06/hanneman.r6SMLzkezo.png?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
