Company Description:
Ultrasound is the use of sound waves to obtain a medical image or picture of various organs and tissues in the body. It is a painless and safe procedure.
Ultrasound produces very precise images of your soft tissues (heart, blood vessels, uterus, bladder, etc.) and reveals internal motion such as heart beat and blood flow. It can detect diseased or damaged tissues, locate abnormal growths and identify a wide variety of changing conditions, which enables your doctor to make a quick and accurate diagnosis.
Diagnostic X-Ray is the use of X-Ray examinations to indentify healthy or abnormal conditions within the body. This is one of the most direct methods for detecting causes of certain health problems and checking your progress.
Nuclear Medicine involves the use of radioactive materials, or isotopes, to obtain specific diagnostic information.
These isotopes transmit a pattern of rays representing the organ size, shape and function. The rays are detected by a special camera which, when coupled with a computer, produces a characteristic image on a screen.
CT stands for computerized tomography, which refers to the way this exam is performed. In actuality, a CT scan is an x-ray procedure enhanced by a computer. This results in a three-dimensional view (referred to as a "slice") of a particular part of your body.
During a routine x-ray, dense tissues can block other areas. Aided by the computer, a CT scan is able to put together the different "slices" and create a three-dimensional view, clearly showing both bone and soft tissue.
