Specialists in Diagnostic Imaging

MEDICAL IMAGING SERVICES MRI Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses non-ionising radiation and magnetic fields to produce high-resolution images of the organs in the body. Our MRI services include: Musculoskeletal, Spinal and Neuroradiology, Prostate, Small Bowel, Pelvis, Liver, and Abdomen. CT SCAN Computed Tomography (CT) uses x-rays and digital computer technology to produce images of the human anatomy. These images can be reconstructed in any anatomical plane to assist doctors with their diagnosis. INTERVENTIONAL RADIOGRAPHY Interventional radiology (IR) is a medical subspecialty that performs various minimally-invasive procedures using medical imaging guidance, such as x-ray fluoroscopy, computed tomog- raphy, magnetic resonance imaging, or ultrasound. ULTRASOUND An Ultrasound (US) uses high-frquency sound waves to produce images of the organs and the tissues in the body. Our ultrasound services include: General, Vascular, Musculoskeletal, Obstetric and Gynaecological, Ultrasound guided biopsy and injections, etc. X-RAY An X-Ray uses small amounts of ionising radiation to produce images of the body's internal organs and structures in a quick and painless way. It is often used to examine bones (joints, fractures or diseases) or organs such as the heart and the lungs. ECHOCARDIOGRAM Echocardiogram (echo) is a type of ultrasound test that uses high-pitched sound waves to image the heart. Our Echocardiogram services include: Transthoracic Echocardiogram DEXA Dual Emission X-Ray Absorptiometry (DEXA), also known as Bone Mineral Densitometry, is a means of measuring the density of minerals in the bones as an indication of the bones' strength and/or likelihood of becoming fractured or deteriorated.
