MRI Brain (With Contrast)

An MRI Brain with contrast is a non-invasive imaging test that uses magnetic fields and radio waves, enhanced by a contrast agent, to produce detailed images of the brain's structures. It is typically performed to diagnose conditions such as tumors, stroke, and neurological disorders, providing valuable information about brain health and function.

X-Ray

XR Paranasal Sinuses 3+ views

The XR Paranasal Sinuses 3+ views test is a radiological examination that captures multiple angles of the paranasal sinuses to assess for abnormalities such as infections, blockages, or structural issues. It is commonly performed to investigate sinusitis, tumors, or other conditions affecting sinus health.

Ultrasound

Doppler Ultrasound Upper Limbs (Venous)

The Doppler Ultrasound Upper Limbs (Venous) test evaluates blood flow in the veins of the arms, utilizing ultrasound technology to detect abnormalities such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). It is commonly performed to assess circulation issues, ensuring timely diagnosis and treatment to prevent complications.

Interventional Radiology

Pelvis Drainage with Imaging Guidance

Pelvis Drainage with Imaging Guidance is a diagnostic procedure that involves the drainage of fluid collections in the pelvic area using imaging technologies, such as ultrasound or CT scans, to accurately guide the placement of drainage catheters. This test is performed to relieve symptoms caused by abscesses, fluid buildup, or other pelvic conditions, helping to prevent complications and aid in recovery.

X-Ray

Shoulder Joint X-Ray (AP & Lateral)

The Shoulder Joint X-Ray (AP & Lateral) is a radiographic examination used to visualize the shoulder joint from two different angles, assessing bone structure, joint alignment, and possible injuries or abnormalities. This test is commonly performed to diagnose fractures, dislocations, arthritis, and other conditions affecting the shoulder.
