We specialize in imaging
and diagnosing neurological disorders such as stroke, congenital anomalies,
epilepsy, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis and problems of the ear-nose-throat
system.
The training and extensive experience of the unit’s radiologists enable them to develop subspecialties within their field to better serve referring physicians. Diagnostic subspecialty areas include cerebrovascular disease, spine imaging, pediatric neuroradiology, otolaryngology, MR angiography, functional MRI, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, transcranial Doppler and carotid ultrasound.
By using the most
advanced clinical MRI applications such as Diffusions Weighted Imaging (DWI), Susceptibilty
Weighted Imaging (SWI), and Spectroscopy our team can help diagnose early
strokes, small malignant lesions or other entities such as metabolic diseases.
Color Coded Doppler
Ultrasonography can also be used to detect subtle or significant extracranial
carotid and vertebral artery diseases such as atheromatous and calcified
plaques, which are an important cause of stroke.
It can also predict the
stroke risk factor associated with intimal thickening
A leading cause of hormonal problems is also
associated withpituitary gland
abnormalities which are best diagnosed by MRI as the gold standard for that
particular organ.
We are also proud to announce the unique addition
of z-UHR technology to our CT machine. z-UHR technology provides the industry’s
best and unparalleled 0.24 mm. spatial
resolution and is designed primarily to study the petrous bone ear and other
fine structures.
