”Extremity injuries – hits, cuts and twists – are typical in ice-
hockey. Planmed Verity is well-suited for this type of imaging as it
has been designed to acquire a 3D image of the entire area at once.

low”, Tuominen says.
“Verity was easy to use and it was also well suited for this kind of
clinic. The benefits of on-site imaging were obvious: the fast diagnosis
of the injuries enabled both the players and the teams to concentrate
on the next steps.”
