Capital Area Physical Therapy and Wellness in Malta and Queensbury is offering Dorasvi, a revolutionary wearable sensory technology based out of Australia that is used by several professional sports organizations around the world like the New York Islanders and European Premier League Clubs.  

Dorsavi technology includes small wireless sensors that contain an accelerometer, a gyroscope and a magnetometer to measure parts of human movement that are unseen to the human eye. The portable, motion-capture technology records data at 200 frames per second and gives the therapists a real-time biomechanical analysis to accurately assess, prevent, and manage injuries and guide rehabilitation.  

Saratoga Hospital celebrated in May the closing of its capital campaign for surgical and intensive care services.

The campaign began with a $4 million goal that was doubled to $8 million, due to the community’s motivated response to help secure support for burgeoning surgical and critical care volumes, hospital officials said.

 The campaign supported the largest capital project in the hospital’s history—its new Surgical Pavilion and the Marylou Whitney and Desmond DelGiacco, MD, Intensive Care Unit. In total, the five-year campaign raised $8 million toward the total costs that exceeded $32 million.

Following a rigorous approval process with months of preparation, Saratoga Hospital has been designated a Diagnostic Imaging Center of Excellence (DICOE) by the American College of Radiology (ACR), said to be the highest form of recognition an imaging department can receive nationally. 

The designation applies to the imaging facilities at both the hospital and Wilton Medical Arts locations, the first to earn this recognition in Upstate New York north of Orange County and east of Buffalo, according to the hospital.
