Services
Specialised care and treatments offered
FLUOROSCOPY
Fluoroscopy provides live X-ray imaging enabling dynamic evaluation of internal organs during diagnostic procedures. It aids physicians in observing motion inside the body in real time for better diagnosis accuracy.
- Symptoms/Causes: Symptoms indicating gastrointestinal issues like swallowing difficulty or bowel obstruction often require fluoroscopic examination using contrast media.
- Diagnosis:By capturing moving images of organs such as esophagus, stomach & intestines fluoroscopy helps detect functional abnormalities including reflux & strictures.
- Treatment/Management:Results guide surgeons/endoscopists during minimally invasive procedures ensuring precise instrument navigation benefitting patient safety.
- What to Expect: It involves exposure to low doses of X-ray radiation combined with contrast agent swallowed/injected into veins; procedures last from few minutes up to an hour depending on complexity.
This versatile imaging tool enhances diagnostic confidence while minimizing invasiveness allowing tailored therapeutic decisions based on real-time observations.
BONE DENSITOMETRY (DEXA SCAN)
A bone densitometry scan measures bone mineral density to assess osteoporosis risk and fracture likelihood. It’s vital for older adults especially postmenopausal women at higher risk of bone loss.
- Symptoms/Causes:The test is recommended for people with fractures from minor injuries or conditions affecting calcium metabolism such as menopause or steroid use.
- Diagnosis:The DEXA scan uses low-dose X-rays focusing mainly on hips and spine bones to quantify density accurately compared to young adult norms.
- Treatment/Management:If results show decreased density, lifestyle changes along with medications like bisphosphonates may be advised to strengthen bones and prevent fractures.
- What to Expect:
- The test is quick (10-15 minutes), painless & requires lying still on a table while scanning occurs.
Regular bone density monitoring offers invaluable information guiding preventative care against debilitating bone diseases.
CT ANGIOGRAPHY
CT angiography combines computed tomography scanning with contrast dye injection to visualize blood vessels throughout the body. It helps detect vascular diseases precisely and quickly.
- Symptoms/Causes: Indicated for evaluating symptoms like chest pain, leg swelling, or suspected aneurysms and arterial blockages.
- Diagnosis: This imaging highlights narrowed arteries, blood clots, malformations, or vessel wall abnormalities clearly.
- Treatment/Management:The findings assist cardiologists and vascular surgeons in planning interventions such as angioplasty or surgery if needed.
- What to Expect:The procedure takes approximately 15–30 minutes; contrast dye may cause a warm sensation temporarily. Proper hydration post-scan is recommended.
This technique enables accurate assessment of vascular health helping prevent strokes and heart attacks by guiding urgent treatment effectively.
MAMMOGRAPHY
Mammography is an X-ray-based screening test focused on detecting breast abnormalities early. It plays a crucial role in identifying breast cancer before symptoms develop.
- Symptoms/Causes: Used primarily for routine screening in women over 40 or those with risk factors such as family history of breast cancer.
- Diagnosis: Mammograms reveal suspicious lumps, microcalcifications, or architectural distortions that prompt further investigation.
- Treatment/Management: Early detection through mammography can lead to more effective treatments including surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or hormonal therapy.
- What to Expect: The process involves compressing the breast between two plates; it may cause mild discomfort but only lasts a few minutes per image captured.
Mammography remains one of the most effective preventive tools against advanced breast disease by facilitating timely medical action.
PEDIATRIC ULTRASOUND
Pediatric ultrasound is a safe imaging tool that uses sound waves to visualize organs and tissues in infants and children. It is preferred because it avoids radiation exposure and provides real-time images.
- Symptoms/Causes: Indications include abdominal pain, suspected congenital abnormalities, swelling, or infections in young patients.
- Diagnosis: Ultrasound helps evaluate organs like liver, kidneys, heart (echocardiography), and soft tissues without discomfort.
- Treatment/Management: Findings assist pediatricians in deciding whether further tests or interventions are required for conditions like hydronephrosis or appendicitis.
- What to Expect: The exam is quick and painless; no sedation is needed. Gel will be applied on the skin to improve sound wave transmission.
This imaging approach offers a child-friendly method for accurate diagnosis while minimizing risk and discomfort for the youngest patients.
MRI BRAIN SCAN
An MRI brain scan is a non-invasive imaging technique that produces detailed images of the brain’s anatomy. It helps in diagnosing various neurological conditions by using magnetic fields and radio waves.
- Symptoms/Causes: Common indications for an MRI brain include headaches, seizures, dizziness, unexplained neurological symptoms, or evaluation after trauma.
- Diagnosis: The procedure creates high-resolution images that highlight abnormalities such as tumors, stroke lesions, inflammation, or developmental anomalies.
- Treatment/Management: Results guide neurologists and neurosurgeons in planning treatment strategies like surgery or medication adjustment.
- What to Expect: The scan typically lasts 30–60 minutes; it is painless but requires remaining still inside the MRI machine. Contrast agents may be used to enhance image quality.
MRI brain scans provide critical insights into many brain disorders and aid timely intervention, improving patient outcomes significantly.
