The Angré University Hospital received a latest generation Neuviz 128 scanner on October 15, 2026, in the presence of the Minister of Health, Public Hygiene and Universal Health Coverage, Pierre N’Gou Dimba. This allocation aims to improve the quality of diagnosis and the speed of care. The information may seem technical. And yet it touches the heart of medical care. Diagnosis is often the first battle against the disease. A rapid examination allows doctors to direct treatments without wasting time. This issue becomes decisive in cases of stroke, serious trauma or surgical emergencies.With this scanner, the Angré University Hospital now has the means to improve access to specialized examinations and reduce the constraints linked to insufficient equipment. Beyond the machine, the issue is simple. Each diagnosis made more quickly can allow immediate treatment.

128-slice equipment for better diagnosis

The NeuViz 128 is a multi-slice scanner designed by Neusoft Medical Systems. Its technology makes it possible to obtain detailed images of different parts of the body. Doctors can use it in particular to explore the brain, thorax, abdomen and certain blood vessels. These examinations contribute to the diagnosis of numerous pathologies and lesions.The number 128 designates its technical capacity for reconstructing cuts.  It's a 128-slot scanner. It acquires 128 cuts in one rotation. The rotation lasts 0.374 seconds according to the manufacturer's data sheet. The device covers an entire organ in seconds. It does not, on its own, guarantee the quality of the diagnosis. This also depends on medical protocols and radiological interpretation. The device operates at a low dose of irradiation. It integrates artificial intelligence algorithms. These algorithms improve the clarity of images. They reduce artifacts linked to cardiac movements.

A hospital that has become a key link in Abidjan

Open to the population since February 2018, the Angré University Hospital has gradually established itself as one of the main health establishments in the Abidjan district. Created in 2017, it now has a capacity of 174 active beds spread over a 4.6 hectare site. The establishment hosts medical, surgical and medico-technical services. Its medical biology laboratory obtained accreditation according to the ISO 15189 standard in February 2024. This recognition demonstrates a desire to strengthen the quality of hospital services.

The Neuviz 128 scanner is part of this dynamic.It completes a technical platform already made up of a 1.5 Tesla MRI, a 64-strip scanner, nine operating theaters and specialized equipment intended for diagnosis and care.
