RADIOLOGY CENTER
The radiology Center at The Canadian Specialist Hospital offers a complete range of modern radiology techniques to diagnose illness and injury.
The Center is fully staffed 24 hours, seven days-a-week by a team of highly experienced and caring radiologists and technicians.
The center provides the following diagnostic facilities:
PACS
Picture Archive Communication System is an advanced imaging and information system that provides clinicians with on-demand access to patient images
on computer workstations, at the hospital, offices and even at their homes, via a secure web connection. This technology helps reduce the time needed to develop diagnoses, plan patient treatments and improve patient care.
MRI
The Achieva, Phillips 1.5 Tesla closed high-field MRI creates clear, concise images of almost any part of the body, at any angle, without X-Rays.
These precise images can lead to early detection and treatment of disease, especially brain and nervous system disorders, cancer, musculoskeletal problems and vascular disease.
CT
The most advanced 64 Multi-Slice CT scanner (Brilliance, Philips) is capable of 2D and 3D imaging with a larger bore all in a single examination within
a very short time. We have the facilities to perform cerebral, pulmonary and cardiac-coronary CT angiography.
Ultrasound
We use both traditional and 4D ultrasound technology with Color Doppler facility to study the arteries and veins especially in the neck and extremities.
Digital Mammography
Full-field digital mammography system designed to provide physicians with clear and precise all-digital images rather than X-Ray film. The system offers better
visibility of the breast, particularly near the skin line, the chest wall, and in women with dense breast tissue. Examination time is reduced by half of the traditional film-based mammograms.
Bone Densitometry
An advanced, fully digitalized tool to investigate patients with suspected osteoporosis (fragile bones).
