Hear from Your Peers

No kidding! Children can be excited about getting a scan!

"The biggest change has been decreasing anxiety levels to the point where children are excited to go to the exam room and get their imaging scan."

Kathleen Kaspin, R.T., M.S.

Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh UPMC

Our Perspective

We set out to make a difference, and what a fantastic solution this has become.

"I realized that we needed to help children have less anxiety when experiencing an imaging scan and decrease their need for sedation. Our goal in creating the Adventure Series was to harness the power of children’s imaginations for the better so they could feel less worried for the entire scan experience."

Doug Dietz

GE HealthCare Adventure Series designer

Our Perspective

Customers continue to see great success with Adventure Series installations.

"The success of the Adventure Series program really speaks for itself. Almost half of the facilities install multiple rooms immediately and 30% of our facilities have chosen to add more after the initial adventure is installed."

Meet the characters

Patients are likely to discover certain traits they have in common with our loveable Adventure Series characters

Marcellus the Monkey

Marcellus is a "young fighter" who smiles and laughs even when times are tough. He is the group's clown, and because he’s lively and active, he has a hard time sitting still. But the others don't mind. They love sharing his antics, jokes, and bits of mischief.

Tillie the Tiger

Tillie is strong, both physically and mentally. No obstacle is too big to tackle. The word "cannot" is not in Tillie’s vocabulary! He likes to take charge and is the first to try anything new. Outgoing and popular, everyone wants to be Tillie's friend.

Haley the Hippo

Haley is sweet, lovable, and sometimes shy. The young hippo has the biggest heart in the world, and that love is contagious. Her fears stand out in the open for everyone to see. The others are always there for Haley with hugs and calming hand squeezes.

Tara the Toucan

Tara is the brains behind the friends' adventures. She is smart and loves to read, draw, and tell stories. The others constantly beg to hear her tales. Tara is a quiet leader. The others confide in her, knowing they can depend on their friend to listen.

Sedation rate results may vary.
