GE Adventure Series*
Imaging that Puts Children First
Once Upon a Time . . .
Pediatric imaging has long presented unique challenges for healthcare providers. Typically, as
children enter the sterile, clinical environment of a traditional imaging room, they may become
anxious or dissolve into tears. And, clinicians may need to perform additional scans or use
sedation to get young patients to successfully complete a scan procedure.
The Search for a Better Way
GE Healthcare recognized there had to be a better way to approach children’s imaging. Our
global design team began to imagine a scan procedure with less anxiety and fear. Through
collaboration with Child Life Specialists from leading children’s hospitals, the Betty Brinn
Children’s Museum and award-winning design firms, we worked to develop a pediatric
imaging solution that helps improve the patient, family, and hospital staffs scan experience.
Actual commercial offering of appliqués may vary due to size, shape and configuration of imaging
rooms. Each room’s wall and floor treatments, lighting, audio equipment and accessories are
determined by the facility.

Lead time for installation of Adventure Series rooms is approximately 4-6 weeks from date
of order.
