Services

Specialised care and treatments offered

BONE DENSITOMETRY (DEXA SCAN)

Bone Densitometry (DEXA Scan)

This specialized X-ray test measures bone mineral density to evaluate osteoporosis risk. Osteoporosis leads to fragile bones prone to fractures often without symptoms until significant weakening occurs over time. Early assessment helps implement preventive strategies effectively.

INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY PROCEDURES

Interventional Radiology Procedures

Certain minimally invasive procedures use image guidance such as fluoroscopy or CT scans to diagnose or treat diseases without open surgery. These are collectively termed interventional radiology techniques and have transformed patient care pathways dramatically.

ULTRASOUND IMAGING

Ultrasound Imaging

This non-invasive imaging modality employs high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time pictures of organs and tissues. Ultrasound is widely used due to its safety profile and versatility across various clinical scenarios.

  • Diverse applications: Includes obstetrics monitoring fetal development, evaluating abdominal organs like liver or kidneys, detecting fluid collections, and guiding needle biopsies.
  • No radiation risk: Because it does not use ionizing rays it is safe during pregnancy and suitable for frequent exams.
  • Painless procedure: A gel is applied on the skin surface allowing the probe to glide smoothly providing live moving images on screen.
  • Doppler ultrasound: Specialized technique assesses blood flow within vessels revealing blockages or clots effectively.

The accessibility and real-time feedback make ultrasound an indispensable diagnostic tool in modern medicine.

MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

MRI uses powerful magnets and radio waves to generate highly detailed images of soft tissues without exposure to ionizing radiation. It is invaluable in evaluating neurological, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and oncological conditions.

  • Advantages: Superior contrast resolution helps visualize brain lesions, spinal cord anomalies, joint injuries, and tumors clearly.
  • No radiation involved: Safe for repeated use even in vulnerable patients when necessary.
  • Preparation: Patients must remove metal objects; sometimes contrast agents are administered intravenously for enhanced detail.
  • Your experience: Scans can last from 15 minutes up to an hour depending on the area examined; lying still is important for image quality.

MRI provides crucial information that complements other imaging methods ensuring comprehensive patient evaluation.

COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT) SCAN

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

A CT scan is a sophisticated imaging technique that combines multiple X-ray images taken from different angles to produce detailed cross-sectional views of internal organs and tissues. It helps in diagnosing a wide range of conditions rapidly.

  • Indications: Commonly used to assess trauma injuries, cancers, infections, and vascular diseases.
  • Process: Patients lie on a motorized table moving through the gantry while the scanner rotates around them capturing images.
  • Differentiation: Offers better clarity than regular X-rays by producing three-dimensional images.
  • Treatment planning: Important in guiding biopsies, surgeries, and radiation therapy targeting precise areas.
  • Safety considerations: Uses ionizing radiation but doses are kept as low as possible adhering to safety protocols.

This tool greatly enhances diagnostic accuracy and timely management across many medical specialties.

MAMMOGRAPHY

Mammography

Mammography is an essential imaging technique primarily used to screen for breast cancer and detect abnormalities. It utilizes low-dose X-rays to create detailed images of breast tissue, aiding in early diagnosis.

  • Purpose: Often performed as a routine screening for women, especially over 40, or if there's a family history of breast cancer.
  • Procedure: The breast is compressed gently between plates to obtain clear X-ray views from multiple angles.
  • Findings: Can reveal lumps, calcifications, or other suspicious areas indicating potential cancer or benign conditions.
  • Follow-up: Abnormal results may require additional imaging such as ultrasound, MRI, or biopsy for confirmation.
  • Benefits: Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes and survival rates.

This screening method remains one of the most effective tools in reducing breast cancer mortality worldwide.
