CT SCAN
A CT (Computerised Tomography) machine is a sophisticated
machine which uses x-rays to acquire images of the body. Instead of a single x-ray beam, CT machine passes a fan
shaped beam of x-rays through the body onto an array of detectors where their strength is measured. Based on these,
images of slices of the body are generated which are read by trained radiologists to detect problems.
For some CT scans, injection may have to be given. This is not for all and hence please check beforehand as
fasting may be required for such scans.
Our CT machine is a multislice, whole body helical CT.
Machine is from Toshiba, Japan.
ULTRASONOGRAPHY
In ultrasound scanning, sound waves are passed into the body and the echoes
coming back from within are processed to form images. Ultrasound is used for
detecting problems in abdomen, fetus, organs like thyroid, testis, breast, etc.
There are no harmful or side effects even to the most sensitive tissue - fetus.
Ultrasound is quick, convenient, affordable, helpful investigation. 4D ultrasound
is used to see the fetus in 3D real time. It is also used for organs like uterus
to better visualize selected problems.
COLOUR DOPPLER
Colour doppler is an extension of ultrasound where sound waves are used to detect
blood flow within major blood vessels inside the body
without any injections. It gives information regarding direction of blood flow,
velocities and presence of obstructions.
DIGITAL X RAY
We have computed radiography (digital x-ray) which not only reduced x-ray dose
to patients, but also reduces processing time. Moreover, the images can be post-processed
as with any digital image, without patient needing to undergo further exposures.
This can be very helpful in doubtful situations. Of course, if additional views
are required, further exposures may be needed in few patients.
Our CR is from Fuji, Japan – one of the leaders in digital x-ray imaging. Radiography machine is from Siemens Multiphos 15
HIGHTECH PATHOLOGY LABORATORY
We believe in providing best services to patients and doctors with our advanced computerized laboratory. Services by lab personnel include preparation, testing and reporting results for profile creation with computerized systems.
Staffs are skilled enough to handle multiple diagnoses with our modern lab facilities.
ECG
A simple procedure where electrical impulses generated by the heart is recorded.
We use BPL machines with auto-interpretation. Please note that auto-interpretation is not a substitute for interpretation by a qualified physician. Auto interpretation tends to over-diagnose and hence there is no cause for alarm if it shows something as abnormal. It just needs to be checked by a qualified physician
