Advanced diagnostic tests for fast, accurate, and safe clinical evaluation.

Diagnostic Imaging

What is Diagnostic Imaging?

Diagnostic Imaging is a medical specialty that uses advanced technologies to obtain detailed images of the inside of the human body, allowing the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of multiple diseases to be guided in a precise and non-invasive way. It includes tests such as radiography, ultrasound, CT, magnetic resonance imaging and mammography, essential for early detection, clinical follow-up and support for medical decision-making in different specialties.

Testing

Types of tests available

We have a wide range of diagnostic tests. The type of scan is indicated by the doctor requesting the test, according to the needs of each patient.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that allows three-dimensional images of the inside of the body to be obtained without the use of radiation. It uses advanced technology to aid in disease detection, diagnosis, and treatment follow-up.

High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging – 3 Tesla is an advanced diagnostic imaging technology that allows obtaining high-precision and quality images of the inside of the body. Its large diameter, one of the largest on the market, provides greater comfort to the patient and helps reduce the feeling of claustrophobia during the examination. In addition, it allows for faster and more detailed studies for a more accurate evaluation.

Open Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a diagnostic imaging system specially designed to offer greater patient comfort. Its totally open, “C”-shaped structure reduces the feeling of anxiety and claustrophobia, allowing the visual field to be kept free throughout the examination. In addition, it uses advanced technology to obtain accurate and high-quality images comfortably and safely.

Computed tomography (CT) is an imaging test that uses X-rays to obtain detailed images of the inside of the body, including cross-sections and three-dimensional reconstructions. It is a fast, accurate and minimally invasive examination, especially useful for evaluating bones, lungs and detecting injuries or bleeding. Our state-of-the-art equipment is designed to offer the highest diagnostic quality with the lowest possible radiation dose.

The Dental CT (Dentascan) is a diagnostic imaging test that allows detailed images of the teeth, jaws and bone structure of the mouth to be obtained. Thanks to its advanced and high-precision technology, it facilitates the planning of dental implants, extractions and other dental and maxillofacial treatments quickly, comfortably and painlessly.

Orthopantomography is a panoramic X-ray that allows a complete image of the teeth, jaws and jaw to be obtained in a single scan. It is a fast, comfortable and low-radiation test, widely used for implant planning, orthodontics and detection of cavities, infections or bone and dental alterations.

Mammography is a radiological test used for the study and prevention of breast cancer. It allows the early detection of small alterations, cysts or tumours that may not be noticeable on a physical examination, facilitating early diagnosis and increasing the chances of prevention and effective treatment.

X-rays are a diagnostic imaging test that allows you to visualize bones and tissues inside the body quickly, easily and non-invasively. It is primarily used to detect fractures, injuries, infections, and lung diseases, offering accurate images with a very low radiation dose.

Ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging test that uses ultrasound to visualize organs, tissues, and structures inside the body safely, quickly, and without radiation. It is a non-invasive technique widely used for the study of different areas such as the abdomen, breasts, thyroid, muscles, joints and vascular system, in addition to being especially indicated during pregnancy.
