An outpatient facility equipped with advanced medical imaging technology, such as MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), CT (Computed Tomography), X-ray, ultrasound, and PET (Positron Emission Tomography), dedicated to diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions.
A non-invasive imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of internal body structures, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions like tumors, injuries, and neurological disorders.
Also known as a CAT scan, it combines X-rays with computer technology to produce cross-sectional images of the body, providing detailed views of bones, organs, and soft tissues to diagnose injuries, diseases, and abnormalities.
A common imaging technique that uses electromagnetic radiation to create images of the inside of the body, particularly useful for detecting fractures, infections, tumors, and foreign objects.
A diagnostic imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs, muscles, blood vessels, and unborn babies, aiding in the diagnosis of various conditions and guiding medical procedures.
A nuclear medicine imaging technique that involves injecting a radioactive tracer into the body to detect changes in cellular function, particularly useful in oncology for detecting cancer, evaluating brain disorders, and assessing heart conditions.
A medical doctor specially trained to interpret medical images produced by various imaging modalities, providing accurate diagnoses and treatment recommendations based on the findings.
A healthcare professional trained to operate imaging equipment, prepare patients for procedures, and ensure the quality of images produced, playing a crucial role in the imaging process.
A substance administered orally, intravenously, or rectally to enhance the visibility of specific organs, blood vessels, or tissues during imaging procedures, improving the accuracy of diagnoses.
Measures and protocols implemented to minimize patient and staff exposure to ionizing radiation during imaging procedures, ensuring safety while obtaining high-quality diagnostic images.
