Lakes Radiology Clinics strives to be one of the most efficient and caring diagnostic imaging specialists
X-Ray
X-Ray imaging is a fast and reliable way to capture detailed images of different parts of the body. The procedure may be done while you are standing or lying down, depending on the type of X-Ray needed. While the process itself is pain-free, some mild discomfort from the positioning may occur during the scan.
Computed Tomography (CT) Scans
A CT scan, also called a CAT scan, leverages X-Rays to generate precise cross-sectional views of the body’s internal structures. This imaging procedure is a crucial tool for identifying numerous medical issues and can be used to study various regions of the body.
Ultrasound Imaging
Sonography, commonly known as ultrasound, is a safe and non-invasive diagnostic tool that utilises high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of internal organs and tissues. Similar to radar or sonar systems, it allows medical professionals to observe internal structures as they function.
Obstetric Imaging
Obstetric ultrasound is a vital tool for assessing the health of both the developing baby and the mother’s reproductive system. By utilising sound waves, this imaging technique captures detailed visuals of the fetus, uterus, and ovaries, enabling healthcare providers to track the progress of the pregnancy and ensure maternal and foetal well-being.
3D Mammography
3D Mammography is a specialised diagnostic tool that uses low-dose X-Rays to capture detailed images of breast tissue. It is a vital procedure for detecting and diagnosing breast conditions, including breast cancer, in their early stages.
Echocardiogram
An Echocardiogram is a non-invasive ultrasound that creates real-time images of the heart and nearby vessels, helping doctors assess structure, function, and blood flow.
Bone Density Measurement (BMD)
DEXA, or bone densitometry, is a diagnostic tool designed to measure bone density and evaluate overall bone health. Commonly used to detect osteoporosis, this painless and efficient test also helps predict the likelihood of fractures.
Interventional Radiology for Pain Relief
Whether caused by an injury or everyday actions, pain can affect anyone. Interventional radiology offers targeted, minimally invasive solutions to help manage pain effectively, promoting better sleep, improved mood, enhanced productivity, and overall well-being.
