Computed Tomography (CT or CAT Scan)
CT scans are an advanced diagnostic tool that gives doctors a better view of a patient’s whole body. CT scans provide cross-sectional images of the body and allow doctors to really focus and examine one area of the body.
CT Scan Benefits
Unlike an X-ray that only shows bone, CT scans reveal all of your tissues and organs in a precise manner. CT scanners use X-ray technology but have the ability to rotate around the body. A powerful computer creates multiple cross-sectional (slices) images of the body so doctors can analyze internal structures..
Advanced Technology
Our State of the Art Multi Slice CT scanner features advanced capabilities that provide the highest level of patient care and comfort.
