The Advanced Multimodality Image Guided Operating Suite at Brigham and Women's Hospital has a dual PET/CT scanner and 3T MRI scanner that can be rolled between operating and MRI rooms. It also has a spectroscopy system to aid in detecting brain injuries and lung tumors. Technologists help position patients and relocate equipment between rooms for guided surgeries.
