Advanced Diagnostics

MRI

It is a special diagnostic test that produces very clear, detailed pictures of internal organs and structures in the body.

We use MRI to diagnose problems in the brain and spinal cord, to see the size and location of tumors, but also to fully visualize and diagnose problems within joints and other soft tissues. MRI is also prescribed in diagnosing diseases and disorders of the eyes and ears or for injuries involving the shoulder, back or neck.

Ultrasound

This technique uses sound waves and a computer to create images of internal organs and blood vessels. It is used for general, intralavitary, gynaecological/obstetric and urological examinations.

Digital Mammography

This high technology reveals masses and micro-calcifications within and around the breast that may indicate breast tumors.

Nuclear Medicine/ Gamma Camera

This technology uses radioactive material to map body organs and produce dynamic data to assess for thyroid disease, cardiac function, orthopaedic injury and infection, blood clots in the lungs and other possible diseases.
