Cedars-Sinai Simulation Center, Mammography and Dry Laboratory, Los Angeles, CA

With more than 2,000 physicians and 10,000 employees, Cedars-Sinai is annually ranked as one of the best cancer centers by U.S. News and World Report.

Syska provided complete engineering design services for the renovation of an existing mixed-use building to a single tenant for two medical functions. The Dry Lab Simulator Suite was located on the 4th floor and included hands-on teaching, observation and simulation rooms. These were surrounded by curved, clear acrylic walls to allow unobstructed viewing of the procedures within the suite. The simulator allows training participants to gain actual experience with scanning equipment and procedures before entering the hospital environment.
