Paoli Hospital Provides New Stroke Detection Lab

PAOLI, PA —Paoli Hospital, part of Main Line Health, has opened a state-of-the-art Neuro-intervention Lab, offering the most advanced diagnostics and treatment available for patients experiencing a stroke.

In collaboration with Jefferson Health Neurosurgery and Tele-Neurocritical Care Services, the new lab will bring leading neuro-intervention care to Chester County.

The lab features advanced imaging equipment available to guide neuro-interventional procedures, amenities to ensure patient comfort, and a collaborative environment where a team of specialists skilled in treating complex conditions can interact.

“Paoli Hospital is one of few community hospitals offering this level of advanced neuro-intervention care,” Jim Paradis, president of Paoli Hospital, said.

"We are proud to offer these comprehensive services across our continuum of care and excited about what this means for our patients, ensuring they achieve the best possible outcome if they experience a stroke.”

Paoli Hospital, Willistown Township, is a nationally recognized Primary Stroke Center, certified hospital by The Joint Commission, a nonprofit that accredits healthcare organizations.

Patients also have access to the full complement of neurosurgery and neuro-intervention services offered at Jefferson Health.

Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital provides support for patients who need special care after a stroke.

“Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the U.S., and timely treatment is the difference maker,” said Dr. Sumeet Multani, director of neuro-intervention services at Paoli Hospital and clinical assistant professor of neurosurgery at Thomas Jefferson University.
