Bone Mineral Density Scan

• Standard for measuring bone strength or density
• To diagnose osteoporosis (porous bone) where loss of bone tissue causes bones to be brittle and more likely to break

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

• Uses X-rays and computer technology to produce cross-sectional images of the body. A dye may be injected to increase the distinction between various organs or areas of the body
• Gives detailed information of the body to help the doctor diagnose and plan treatment for your condition

Interventional Radiology (IR)

Minimally invasive procedures which rely on radiological image guidance (X-ray fluoroscopy, ultrasound or CT) to accurately deliver diagnostic investigation (biopsy or aspiration) or therapeutic treatment (drainage or stenting)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

• Strong magnetic and radio frequency waves are used to create images of the body
• MRI can show certain structures of the body better than conventional X-ray imaging

Mammography

• Imaging of the breasts using a low-dose X-ray
• A primary means of detecting breast diseases

Ultrasound

• Uses high frequency sound waves to obtain real-time images of the internal body structure and organs
• Ultrasonic waves are inaudible and cause no sensation

Others

• Fluoroscopy
• General Radiography
• Intravenous Urography (IVU)
• Nuclear Medicine
