  • CT
CT stands for Computerized Axial Tomography. It takes the science of X-Ray to another level. During the 5 to 10 minute scan, you lie flat on a table, which then moves through a ring which takes a series of pictures in a circular motion which compiles a 3D picture of your body.

  • X-ray
X-ray imaging, the simplest and painless imaging, can be done in many different ways. For an x-ray you will need to stay still, which may include holding your breath, as motion causes blurry images. X-rays are monitored and regulated so that you receive minimum radiation exposure.

  • ULTRASOUND
Ultrasound is a type of imaging that uses high-frequency sound waves to look at organs and structures in the body. Unlike x-rays, ultrasound does not expose you to radiation. During the test, you lie on a table while technologist moves a transducer over a specific area. The transducer sends out sound waves which bounce off tissues and are then recaptured.
