This project seeks to reduce the environmental impact of contrast-enhanced computed tomography scans by developing a method to create digital contrast without the use of radiocontrast media. The goal is to enhance patient safety and lower carbon emissions in healthcare.
Computerised Tomography (CT) scan is one of the most common medical imaging performed in healthcare, Each year, 300 million CT scans are performed globally.
Of which, around 180M include use of radiocontrast media (RCM).
Contrast Enhanced CTs (CECT) create a significant environmental impact, namely: 42,000 tonnes of single use packaging, 900 Tonnes of surgical steel (needles), 90,000 tonnes of plastic tubing and 150,000,000 kWh in energy consumption.
These generate on average 9.2 kg of CO2/ scan…
