Modular Devices Inc. parters with WVUH-E to provide a large Modular Cath Lab with GE Innova digital flat panel imaging system and help quickly start-up their new cardiac cath/interventional program.

Converting an interventional lab into the space of a trailer truck may not be ideal, but more facilities are weighing the pros and cons of utilizing mobile or modular (which are somewhat larger) labs, while their own cath or electrophysiology (EP) labs are being constructed, renovated or upgraded.
