The equipment also features an “immersive audiovisual experience” to help calm nerves and guide patients through the procedure, according to RIMI.
The 7.23-ton machine was installed with the use of a crane on May 24. In preparation, workers had to remove a portion of the side of the building, Rhode Island Medical Imaging said.
