Lower Keys Medical Center and the Greater Key West Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting ceremony on November 13, 2025, to showcase and celebrate the reopening of the CT room and installation of a new CT scanner.

Computed tomography (CT) scanners combine x-ray and computer technology to create 2D and 3D images of the inside of the body, including organs, blood vessels, bones and soft tissues.

“This new equipment provides faster scan times, allowing more patients to be served, and expands our cardiovascular and neurological testing. The scans have sharper images and providers can also access AI-enhanced technology when diagnosing and treating patients,” said Drew Bigby, chief executive officer ant Lower Keys Medical Center.
