Spanish Health Facilities Advance with New Technology and Service Expansions

Spanish healthcare facilities are enhancing patient care with significant technological upgrades and new service integrations. The Coria Health Area invested 1.7 million euros in modernizing its medical equipment, including acquiring 22 state-of-the-art ultrasound machines worth 1 million euros, replacing outdated devices over 20 years old. Twelve of these units are allocated to Hospital Ciudad de Coria for key services such as Cardiology, Obstetrics, and Emergency. Additionally, a new CT scanner costing 497,631 euros was installed, alongside a high-performance surgical microscope for Ophthalmology valued at 169,400 euros. Pediatric services benefited from a neonatal resuscitation crib purchased for 32,483 euros, while a pulmonology consultation was created at a cost of 46,101 euros, enabling local care without patient transfers to Cáceres. Laundry service improvements exceeding 500,000 euros further support hospital operations.

Meanwhile, Vithas Madrid Arturo Soria Hospital launched an advanced dental care unit integrated into its Maxillofacial Surgery Department. The unit leverages cutting-edge technology, including 3D dental scanners and AI-driven software, to address a broad spectrum of oral health conditions, from routine dental pain to complex implantology. According to Dr. Pedro Losa, this initiative bridges oral and overall health, providing immediate access to advanced diagnostics and treatments in a hospital setting, thereby improving patient safety and care coordination.

These developments illustrate Spain’s commitment to advancing healthcare quality through technological innovation and expanded specialized services, enhancing both diagnostic capabilities and patient experiences across regions.
