Services
Specialised care and treatments offered
CONTRAST-ENHANCED ULTRASOUND (CEUS) FOR LIVER LESIONS
The use of contrast agents during ultrasound enhances visualization when evaluating suspicious liver lesions. CEUS helps distinguish benign from malignant growths efficiently without ionizing radiation exposure.
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI) FOR SPINAL CORD INJURY
MRI is an advanced scanning technique that provides high-resolution images of spinal cord injuries. It aids clinicians in assessing damage extent after trauma affecting mobility and sensation.
- Symptoms/causes: Symptoms like paralysis, numbness, or severe back pain following trauma may indicate spinal cord involvement from fractures or ligament injuries.
- Diagnosis: MRI offers detailed views of soft tissues including discs, ligaments, nerves, as well as bone marrow changes associated with injury severity.
- Treatment/management:
ANGIOGRAPHY IN ACUTE LIMB ISCHEMIA
An angiogram provides detailed visualization of blood vessels when sudden limb ischemia occurs due to arterial blockage. This helps determine the location and severity of obstruction requiring urgent intervention.
- Symptoms/causes: Sudden pain, pallor, coldness, and loss of pulse signal compromised blood flow often from embolism or thrombosis.
- Diagnosis: Contrast dye introduced into arteries highlights blockages on X-ray images during angiography procedures.
- Treatment/management: Based on angiographic findings, treatments include clot removal via catheter-based methods or surgery to restore circulation promptly.
- What to expect: The test involves inserting a catheter through a vessel; usually performed under local anesthesia with careful monitoring afterward.
This imaging method is instrumental in saving limbs by facilitating timely revascularization during vascular emergencies.
ULTRASOUND-GUIDED DRAINAGE OF ABSCESSES
Ultrasound guidance allows precise localization and drainage of abscesses without extensive surgery. This minimally invasive technique reduces risk and speeds recovery in infected fluid collections.
- Symptoms/causes: Redness, swelling, pain, and fever may suggest abscess formation due to infection or injury.
- Diagnosis: Ultrasound identifies the size and extent of pus-filled cavities beneath the skin or in deeper tissues.
- Treatment/management: Real-time imaging enables safe placement of needles or catheters to drain fluid effectively under sterile conditions.
- What to expect: Patients typically experience minimal discomfort with faster resolution compared to open surgical drainage procedures.
This approach offers an excellent alternative for managing abscesses with less invasiveness while ensuring effective treatment outcomes.
EMERGENCY CHEST RADIOGRAPHY FOR TRAUMA
An urgent chest X-ray is often the first imaging performed on patients with chest trauma. It provides essential information about injuries to the lungs, heart, ribs, and major vessels that require immediate attention.
- Symptoms/causes: Chest pain, difficulty breathing, or trauma from accidents signal possible pneumothorax, hemothorax, or rib fractures.
- Diagnosis: Radiographs reveal air or fluid accumulation and fractures aiding rapid diagnosis of life-threatening conditions.
- Treatment/management: Findings direct emergency management like chest tube insertion or surgical intervention as needed.
- What to expect: The procedure is simple and quick; positioning may be adapted for immobilized patients in the emergency setting.
This investigation plays a vital role in stabilizing trauma patients by swiftly detecting critical thoracic injuries.
COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT) SCAN FOR STROKE
A CT scan is a crucial imaging tool used in the rapid assessment of patients suspected of having a stroke. It helps differentiate between ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, guiding immediate treatment decisions.
- Symptoms/causes: Sudden weakness, difficulty speaking, or numbness may indicate a stroke caused by a clot or bleeding in the brain.
- Diagnosis: The CT scan quickly visualizes brain tissue to detect bleeding or infarction and rules out other causes of symptoms.
- Treatment/management: Results from the CT guide emergency interventions such as thrombolysis or surgery in hemorrhagic cases.
- What to expect: The procedure is fast, non-invasive, and usually completed within minutes to expedite critical care.
This imaging modality significantly improves outcomes by enabling prompt and accurate diagnosis during acute neurological emergencies.
