Services

Specialised care and treatments offered

BONE DENSITOMETRY (DEXA SCAN)

Bone Densitometry (DEXA Scan)

A bone densitometry scan measures bone mineral density primarily used for diagnosing osteoporosis and assessing fracture risk. It’s an advanced radiologic technique that evaluates skeletal strength non-invasively with minimal radiation exposure.

FLUOROSCOPY

Fluoroscopy

This imaging technique enables visualization of dynamic processes within the body in real-time using continuous X-ray beams. Fluoroscopy assists doctors in examining joints, the digestive tract, blood vessels, and guiding interventional procedures accurately.

  • Symptoms/causes:If patients experience swallowing difficulties, joint pain or need catheter placement guidance fluoroscopy can be employed effectively.
  • Diagnosis:The patient may ingest contrast agents or have them injected intravenously depending on the area examined during the study conducted under X-ray monitoring screens live movement internally.

PEDIATRIC ULTRASOUND

Pediatric Ultrasound

Pediatric ultrasound is an imaging modality ideal for assessing organs and structures in infants and children using sound waves. It is safe, non-invasive, and does not involve radiation exposure.

  • Symptoms/causes: Common indications include abdominal pain, suspected congenital abnormalities, or follow-up on known pediatric conditions.
  • Diagnosis: A handheld transducer emits sound waves into the body while capturing echoes reflected back to form real-time images on screen.
  • Treatment/management:The results help determine whether medication or surgery might be necessary depending on findings like organ enlargement or cysts.
  • What to expect:No special preparation usually needed; the process is painless though young children may need comforting during examination time lasting 15-30 minutes.

Pediatric ultrasound remains a fundamental diagnostic tool providing immediate insights into childhood illnesses with minimal risk involved.

MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

MRI uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of soft tissues within the body without exposure to ionizing radiation. It is particularly useful for evaluating neurological, musculoskeletal, and cardiovascular conditions.

  • Symptoms/causes: MRI is indicated for persistent pain, unexplained neurological deficits, or suspected tumors among other issues.
  • Diagnosis: Patients are positioned inside a large magnet scanner where radiofrequency pulses produce signals captured into high-resolution images.
  • Treatment/management: These images guide treatment protocols such as surgery planning or assessing disease progression.
  • What to expect: The scan lasts 30-60 minutes; noise-canceling headphones may be provided due to loud sounds during scanning sessions.

MRI provides unparalleled visualization of complex anatomy aiding diagnosis without exposing patients to radiation risks associated with other modalities.

COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT) SCAN

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

A CT scan combines multiple X-ray images taken from different angles to provide cross-sectional views of internal organs. It is widely used for diagnosing various medical conditions quickly and accurately.

  • Symptoms/causes: CT scans help evaluate trauma, infections, cancers, and vascular diseases among others.
  • Diagnosis: Patients lie on a motorized table while a rotating X-ray device captures detailed images.
  • Treatment/management: Results assist doctors in planning surgeries, monitoring diseases, or guiding biopsies.
  • What to expect: The procedure is painless but may require contrast dye; patients should inform if allergic reactions are known.

The CT scan’s ability to produce rapid and precise images makes it invaluable for emergency diagnostics as well as routine evaluations.

MAMMOGRAPHY

Mammography

Mammography is a specialized imaging technique essential for early detection of breast cancer and other abnormalities in breast tissue. It uses low-dose X-rays to create detailed images that help identify changes not visible during a physical exam.

  • Symptoms/causes: While often used as a screening tool, mammograms can detect lumps, calcifications, and other suspicious findings before symptoms arise.
  • Diagnosis: The procedure involves compressing the breast gently to obtain clear X-ray images from multiple angles.
  • Treatment options: Mammogram results guide further interventions like biopsy or follow-up imaging if abnormalities are detected.
  • What to expect: The test typically takes about 20 minutes; some mild discomfort from compression may occur but is brief.

This screening tool plays a crucial role in reducing mortality by detecting breast conditions at an early, more treatable stage.
