Urine Culture & Sensitivity

A Urine Culture & Sensitivity test identifies specific bacteria or yeast responsible for a urinary tract infection (UTI) and tests which antibiotics are most effective in treating the infection. This test is crucial for guiding appropriate treatment and ensuring faster recovery.

Serology & Immunology

C-Reactive Protein (CRP)

The C-Reactive Protein (CRP) test measures the level of CRP in the blood, which rises in response to inflammation or infection. This test is commonly used to assess the presence and intensity of inflammatory conditions, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and infections.

Biochemistry

Uric Acid

The Uric Acid test measures the amount of uric acid in the blood or urine, assisting in the diagnosis of conditions such as gout and kidney stones. Elevated levels may indicate purine metabolism disorders or increase the risk of related health issues.

MRI

MRI Heart with and without IV Contrast

An MRI Heart with and without IV Contrast is a diagnostic imaging test that uses magnetic resonance technology to create detailed pictures of the heart and surrounding structures, assessing for conditions such as heart disease, tumors, or structural abnormalities. The use of contrast enhances the visibility of blood vessels and heart tissues, providing critical information for diagnosis and treatment planning.

X-Ray

XR Humerus

The XR Humerus test is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses X-ray technology to visualize the humerus bone in the upper arm. It is commonly performed to identify fractures, bone abnormalities, or signs of arthritis, helping to guide treatment decisions.

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.
