For the health and safety of our patients, we have implemented an ultra-low dose X-ray system.

Given the high frequency of radiographic imaging in orthopedic clinics, we have introduced this advanced equipment to significantly reduce radiation exposure while ensuring safe and effective X-ray examinations.

Our ultra-low dose X-ray system minimizes radiation exposure and provides clearer, higher-quality images for more accurate diagnoses. 

At Gangnam Champion Hospital, we are committed to providing a safe and sterile surgical environment.

To ensure cleanliness and prevent infections, our operating rooms are equipped with HEPA filters in accordance with KS B6740 standards, delivering purified air free from dust and bacteria. These air purification systems are regularly inspected and maintained.

To further prevent surgical site infections, the walls of the operating rooms are constructed with non-permeable materials. Additionally, CCTV systems have been safely installed in full compliance with applicable regulations.

In preparation for emergency situations, the operating room is fully equipped with airway maintenance devices, ventilators, respiratory monitoring systems for anesthetized patients, ECG monitors, and backup power supply systems.

Access to the operating room is strictly controlled. The doors remain closed at all times except for medical staff and patients involved in surgical procedures. Entry is limited to essential personnel only to maintain a sterile environment.

At Gangnam Champion Hospital, we strictly follow a “One Instrument per Patient” policy to minimize the risk of infection and ensure the highest level of patient safety.
To support this, we have installed three sterilization units, including a large-capacity high-pressure steam sterilizer, and conduct thorough instrument sterilization on a daily basis.

Our vacuum steam sterilizer operates by first removing air to create a vacuum, then injecting steam under high pressure and temperature. This method allows for more effective elimination of all types of microorganisms and bacteria, ensuring complete sterilization of medical instruments.

To prevent infections within patient rooms, our wards are equipped with a ventilation and air-conditioning system that filters incoming air and continuously purifies the indoor environment.
Every patient room includes a sink for hand hygiene, and we enforce visitor and caregiver number limitations to ensure a safe and controlled environment.

Our spacious inpatient rooms are designed with a minimum of 1.5 meters between beds, and provide personal amenities such as a refrigerator, TV, electronic-key locker, and privacy curtains, ensuring both comfort and personal space.

Patients can also enjoy a more pleasant and comfortable hospital stay with motorized beds, high-quality Korean-made bedding, and nutritious, flavorful meals prepared using mostly locally sourced ingredients.

Gangnam Champion Hospital uses a completely radiation-free and safe ultrasound diagnostic system that poses no harm to the human body.
Our ultrasound equipment is equipped with advanced AI technology called "Nerve Track", which displays the location of nerves in real time during both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

This innovative feature allows for clear distinction between surrounding tissues and nerves, greatly enhancing the accuracy of diagnosing musculoskeletal disorders in the spine and joints, while also contributing to safer, more precise treatments.

Gangnam Champion Hospital is equipped with a state-of-the-art C-arm imaging system—a mobile imaging device similar to X-ray that is commonly used during spinal injections, minimally invasive procedures, and orthopedic surgeries.

Our advanced C-arm system uses digital detector technology instead of the conventional image intensifier method. This allows for high-resolution, distortion-free images, enhancing diagnostic and procedural accuracy while significantly reducing unnecessary radiation exposure.

Additionally, it is equipped with an automatic collimator that minimizes radiation by blocking unnecessary X-ray beams, further ensuring patient safety.

Osteoporosis testing measures bone density in the lumbar spine and femur (thigh bone).

At Gangnam Champion Hospital, our osteoporosis diagnostic device allows for simultaneous measurement of three key areas—the lumbar spine and both hips—with just a single, simple button operation.

With its AUTO-ROI (Region of Interest) setting, the device provides precise BMD (Bone Mineral Density) measurements for specific areas including the lumbar spine, hip joints, and forearm. It is also capable of measuring abdominal tissue thickness, ensuring more accurate assessments.

This is a Focus Cell-type Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) device designed to relieve musculoskeletal pain.
It features a piezoelectric element arranged in an ARRAY configuration, allowing for the stable delivery of high-output energy during treatment.

The therapeutic effects include:

• Stimulation of neovascularization (formation of new blood vessels)

• Improvement of blood supply to affected tissues

• Vascular remodeling through increased blood flow

• Promotion of angiogenesis (new capillary growth)

Radial Shockwave Therapy (rESWT)
The radial extracorporeal shockwave system enables easy treatment over a wide area and is well-suited for conditions such as myofascial pain and musculoskeletal disorders.

Radiofrequency Therapy (RET)
Applying radiofrequency energy to the affected area delivers deep heat penetration, effectively relieving pain.

Ultrasound Therapy (ESWP)
Safe ultrasound physical energy is applied to the body to alleviate pain in areas such as the arms, legs, lower back, calves, and soles of the feet.

By maintaining the affected area at a low temperature, this treatment promotes muscle relaxation and pain relief, while reducing hematoma and swelling through vascular effects, and decreases inflammation.

The sudden temperature change activates skin nerve receptors, which send alert signals to the brain. The brain then triggers a strong response through the autonomic nervous reflex system, promoting self-healing and facilitating recovery.

Indications include:

• Reduction of periarticular swelling and pain after trauma

• Decrease in postoperative pain and swelling

• Treatment of tendinitis, epicondylitis (tennis elbow), plantar fasciitis, and muscle spasms

• Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)

Gangnam Champion Hospital’s spinal traction device for treating neck and lumbar disc herniation and spinal stenosis gently stretches the affected vertebrae of the neck and lower back by applying upward and downward traction. This helps reduce pressure on the intervertebral disc nucleus.

Additionally, it provides a stretching effect on tight muscles around the back, lumbar region, and neck, helping to relieve muscle tension.

This device gently and painlessly helps bend the leg smoothly in cases of stiffness caused by inflammation after joint replacement surgery, arthroscopic surgery, or osteotomy of the knee joint. 

We provide comfortable and gentle treatment for spinal, joint, and musculoskeletal conditions using a variety of rehabilitation and physical therapy devices—all without pain.
