This also includes:
- Pregnancy ultrasound: including dating, morphology, and growth scans
- Vascular ultrasound: such as DVT studies and carotid imaging
- Echocardiography: ultrasound of the heart
- Elastography: assessing liver tissue stiffness
CT scan
CT scans use x-rays and advanced computer processing to create highly detailed two and three dimensional images of your body. This includes CT calcium scoring, which is used to assess the level of calcification in the coronary arteries and evaluate heart disease risk. All scans are performed using low-dose protocols.
MRI

Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology is a medical subspecialty of radiology that uses minimally invasive image-guided procedures to diagnose and treat diseases in nearly every organ system including, but not limited to vascular, gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, genitourinary, pulmonary, musculoskeletal, and the central nervous system. Common procedures include joint injections, biopsies and spinal interventions, allowing for precise treatment with reduced recovery times and minimal discomfort. This also includes:
- EUFLEXXA®, designed to mimic the natural fluid in synovial joints, EUFLEXXA® helps reduce pain and improve mobility in people with osteoarthritis. It is injected directly into the joint space, often under ultrasound guidance for greater accuracy.
Mammography
Mammography is a specialised imaging technique used to examine breast tissue and can detect breast cancer before you show any visible signs or symptoms of the disease. It includes both routine screening and diagnostic assessments.
DEXA Body Composition
Using dual-energy x-ray technology, DEXA measures the distribution of lean muscle, fat, and bone mass. It’s commonly useful for people who want highly accurate body composition information to assist with physical performance, metabolic health and obesity management.
Bone Mineral Densitometry (BMD)
BMD scans measure bone mineral density to help diagnose osteoporosis and evaluate fracture risk. The scan is quick, low-dose and provides essential information for managing long-term bone health.
