Services

Specialised care and treatments offered

PET-CT SCAN

PET-CT Scan

A PET-CT combines metabolic activity detection using positron emission tomography with anatomical detail offered by computed tomography scans. This hybrid modality is invaluable in oncology diagnostics and monitoring therapy response.

  • Clinical context: Frequently requested in cancer staging, recurrence detection, and evaluating treatment effectiveness.
  • How it works: Radioactive tracers highlight active tumor cells showcasing functional alterations before anatomical changes appear.
  • Procedure experience: Involves tracer injection followed by scanning after uptake period while patient rests quietly.
  • Risks & preparation: Mild radiation exposure; fasting recommended prior to study.
  • Interpretation & follow-up: Results guide oncologists regarding tumor burden extent influencing individualized treatment plans.

This advanced scan facilitates early disease detection and tailored cancer care through comprehensive physiological information paired with structural imagery evaluation capabilities

FLUOROSCOPY-GUIDED JOINT INJECTIONS

Fluoroscopy-Guided Joint Injections

This imaging-assisted procedure delivers medication directly into joints under continuous X-ray guidance. It provides both diagnostic insight and therapeutic relief for joint disorders.

  • Symptom indications: Chronic joint pain due to arthritis or injury warranting targeted intervention.
  • Diagnostic benefit: Confirms source of pain by assessing response after injection.
  • Treatment specifics: Steroids or anesthetics precisely injected enhancing efficacy while minimizing systemic effects.
  • The procedural steps: Local anesthesia applied; fluoroscopy ensures correct needle positioning.
  • Recovery notes: Immediate pain relief common with minimal downtime necessary.

Utilizing live imaging ensures safe administration and maximizes symptomatic improvement from joint injections.

MR ANGIOGRAPHY (MRA)

MR Angiography (MRA)

MRI technology adapted to visualize blood vessels without ionizing radiation provides detailed images of arteries and veins. It aids in detecting vascular diseases non-invasively.

  • Causative factors/symptoms: Applied when there's suspicion of aneurysms, stenosis, or thrombosis causing neurological or limb symptoms.
  • The diagnostic method: MRA uses magnetic fields combined with contrast agents to enhance vessel depiction.
  • Treatment relevance: Helps clinicians decide on medical management versus interventions like angioplasty or surgery based on vessel integrity assessment.
  • The examination process involves: Patient lies still inside an MRI scanner; no radiation exposure occurs during the test.
  • User guidance post-test: Generally no restrictions; results guide personalized treatment strategies effectively.

This approach offers a safe and detailed evaluation tool crucial in planning vascular care pathways without invasive catheterization risks involved in conventional angiography procedures.

CT-GUIDED BIOPSY

CT-Guided Biopsy

A CT-guided biopsy allows precise sampling of suspicious tissue via needle insertion under computed tomography visualization. It facilitates diagnosis without open surgery.

  • Syndrome presentation: Indicated when imaging detects masses requiring pathological confirmation.
  • The diagnostic process: CT scans locate the lesion while guiding needle placement accurately to avoid vital structures.
  • Treatment implications: Results influence further management including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgical decisions.
  • The procedure details: Usually performed under local anesthesia with minimal discomfort reported by patients.
  • Expected outcomes: Rapid recovery post-biopsy; slight bruising or soreness might occur around the puncture site.

This technique is essential for obtaining definitive diagnoses in complex cases safely and effectively.

DIGITAL SUBTRACTION ANGIOGRAPHY (DSA)

Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA)

A specialized imaging technique, digital subtraction angiography visualizes blood vessels with enhanced clarity by removing background structures. It's critical in diagnosing vascular conditions.

  • Symptoms/causes: Used when vascular abnormalities cause symptoms like unexplained bleeding or ischemia.
  • How diagnosed: Involves injecting contrast dye into arteries and capturing X-ray images.
  • Treatment approach: Besides diagnosis, DSA can guide therapeutic interventions such as embolization or stent placement.
  • Patient preparation: Requires fasting; minor sedation may be administered during the procedure.
  • Post-procedure expectations: Patients usually recover quickly but are monitored briefly for contrast reactions or bleeding at puncture sites.

This method remains a gold standard for high-resolution vascular assessment and intervention planning.

INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY FOR TUMOR ABLATION

Interventional Radiology for Tumor Ablation

Interventional radiology offers minimally invasive options to treat tumors using imaging guidance. This approach targets abnormal tissue precisely while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy areas.

  • Causes and symptoms: Often used for liver, kidney, or lung tumors, symptoms depend on tumor location but may include pain or organ dysfunction.
  • Diagnosis: Imaging techniques such as CT, MRI, or ultrasound identify tumor size, shape, and position.
  • Treatment options: Tumor ablation methods include radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA), delivered through needles guided by real-time imaging.
  • Management: The procedure is minimally invasive with usually shorter hospital stays compared to surgery.
  • What to expect: Recovery is typically quicker; patients may experience mild discomfort and require follow-up imaging to assess treatment success.

This technique provides a targeted treatment alternative for patients unsuitable for conventional surgery.
