Private CT Scan in Hertfordshire
Pinehill Hospital is invests in state of the art equipment and
now has a 64-slice Siemens CT Scanner as part of its commitment to
improving diagnostic imaging services for its patients.
CT scanning (Computed Tomography) builds up a picture of the
body using x-rays to slice through the area under investigation. A
high powered computer is then used to reconstruct a series of
cross-sectional images which can be manipulated to show several
kinds of body tissue; including soft tissue blood vessels lung and
bone in 3-D with a very high degree of clarity.
All this information can be gathered from a single scan allowing
your specialist to interpret the results extremely accurately.
Nazima Firfirey, Radiology Manager at Pinehill Hospital adds:
“This scanner is the latest in CT technology and enhances both
our diagnostic imaging and interventional services; it can provide
a faster and more efficient service for our patients. For most
investigation we can now offer a scan within two days of receiving
a request”.
We also have a mobile MRI scanning service two days per week. An
MRI provides images of the body without the use of x-rays and
provides highly detailed images of the body; such as the brain and
spinal cord.
