- 1.5T MRI – the state Of the art 1.5T MRI enables imaging of the whole body , including routine studies of the breast , small joints , brain and spine. Specialized studies such as spectroscopy , diffusion imaging , MRCP , MR angiograms & MR mammography are also carried out.
- 3D digital Mammography – provides radiologists with multiple, thin-section images, allowing the radiologist to evaluate your breast tissue layer by layer enabling to even diagnosis small lesions in dense breasts.
- 256 slice HD CT scan – which provides quantum leap in imaging and is now used to diagnose heart diseases. All angiograms and whole body CT with low does radiation , providing much more visual detail about body functions & structures. This CT performs all examinations such as brain, spines, extremities , abdomen and angiograms.
