Hospital: Tampa General
Size: 1,040 beds
Budget: $3.4 billion
Technology: GE HealthCare’s Allia Moveo
In February, through a partnership with Tampa General Hospital, the University of South Florida’s Center for Advanced Medical Learning and Simulation (CAMLS), became the first institution in Florida — and the third worldwide — to install GE HealthCare’s next-generation Allia Moveo system. It is is an advanced surgical imaging platform that supports minimally-invasive procedures.
According to a release, CAMLS will also become the first simulation center in the world to integrate Allia Moveo into its advanced education and simulation programs for students, faculty and practicing clinicians. That means providers will be able to train on the most innovative operating room technology found in leading medical centers.
“Gaining access to the latest surgical imaging and guidance technologies further ensures that innovation in education keeps pace with innovation in care,” Dr. Haru Okuda, executive director of CAMLS and associate vice president of Interprofessional Education and Practice with USF Health, says in the release.
The technology behind Allia Moveo includes a slim, compact and cable-free “C-arm” that moves freely around patients, providing surgeons with greater patient access and flexibility, the release says. A second C-arm is designed for Cone Beam CT imaging, even with patients’ arms down, the release says, and built-in AI-powered workflow tools help streamline the procedures. (Cone Beam is non-invasive 3D imaging technology.)
A second Allia Moveo system is scheduled to be installed at Tampa General Hospital later this year and will be for clinical use in the hospital’s hybrid operating room suite, the release says.
Founded in 2012, USF’s CAMLS building is one of the world’s largest freestanding simulation facilities dedicated solely to health care training. The downtown Tampa facility is part of TGH’s Tampa Medical and Research District.
