Diagnostics & Imaging

X-Ray

An X-ray let’s doctors see straight through human tissue to examine broken bones, cavities and swallowed objects with extraordinary ease. Modified x-ray procedures can be used to examine softer tissue, such as lungs, blood vessels or intestines.

CT (contrast and non-contrast)

The CT scanner is a donut shaped machine that uses advanced x-ray technology to take pictures of cross sections of your body called "slices". CT makes it possible to diagnose certain diseases earlier and more accurately than other imaging tools. Some physicians recommend the use of a contract material "dye" to opacity the internal structures in more detail.

Low Dose CT

Advanced CT imaging using low dose is also available. This innovative technology automates does according to patient size, weight and anatomy, providing high quality images at minimally required dose.

Dexa Scan

Dexa stands for Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry. Is the most commonly used test for measuring bone mineral density. It is one of the most accurate ways to diagnose steopenia or Osteoporosis.

MRI

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique that uses a magnetic field and radio waves to created detailed images of the organs and tissues within your body.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound imaging is another state-of-the-art diagnostic tool. It is a safe, painless procedure that bounces sound saves off internal organs and structures. There is no injection or radiation exposure associated with ultrasound.
