Medical Imaging & Laboratory Centre

Imaging and laboratory services are critical components of modern healthcare, playing a vital rold in diagnosis, treatment, and patient management.

We provides a full range of diagnostic procedures, including: Computed Tomography (CT), Ultrasound, General X-Ray and Fluoroscopy, Mammogram with a team of board-certified radiologists and registered technologists is committed to delivering high-quality care, ensuring that results are communicated promptly to your healthcare provider.

Addition to Imaging, our Laboratory services support a wide range of diagnostic tests. We focus on accuracy and efficiency, providing essential Information for effective patient management.

Computed Tomography (CT)*

CT (Computerized Tomography) Scan, is the use of computer technology to translate our “flat” X-ray image into slices of images. Through study of hundreds of images and the application of 3D and 4D-display functions, 3D volumetric information of the body can be obtained in CT Scan. The CT computer also allows us to enhance the contrast of the displayed tissues, therefore we can pick up subtle change in soft tissue to identify pathology in the earliest possible stage. The X-ray characteristics and its high scanning speed make CT Scan ideal for abdominal, thorax, bony, and traumatic imaging.

Our high-speed Spiral CT Scan also allows us to perform high resolution CT Angiogram. CT Angiogram is commonly used as an initial investigation of suspected Arterial Vessel disease and it significantly reduces the number of Conventional Angiogram. At the same time, it also decreases the cost and the risk of Angiogram.

Siemens SOMATOM Definition Flash 256-slices CT Scanner has a dual-source and dual-energy design featuring two X-ray tubes that simultaneously revolve around the patient’s body. The design enables better tissue differentiation and a reduction of the number of scans.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound uses reflected sound waves to produce a picture of organs and other structures inside the body. Since the technique does not use X-rays or any type of possibly harmful radiation, it is widely used in pregnant women.

General X-Ray and Dexa

Radiology, otherwise known as X-ray, is the use of high penetration radiation to produce 2D picture of our 3D body tissue on film for diagnostic purpose. Radiology is the most common and relatively inexpensive imaging modality used in Diagnostic Imaging. Radiology is good for tissue of high inherent contrast such as bone and lung.

DEXA Bone Density Scan

DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) is a safe, painless imaging test that measures bone mineral density to assess bone strength and diagnose osteoporosis. Using low-dose X-rays, this quick 10-15 minute scan helps identify individuals at risk of fractures and monitors the effectiveness of osteoporosis treatment. DEXA is particularly recommended for postmenopausal women, individuals over 55, and those with risk factors such as prolonged steroid use or family history of osteoporosis.

Mammogram

A mammogram will allow doctors to detect any abnormal breast tissue, or untouched/unformed tumor locations (calcification points), which may be a sign of early stage breast cancer.
