X-Ray
13Noble Heart Hospital has a wide range of Digital X-Ray systems which are a mark of the global quality that we strive to provide. We have the world’s most advanced X-Ray system and the latest in DR technology. Digital imaging has led to similar improvements in X-Ray. All routine plain X-rays and special procedures, including barium studies, intravenous urography. HSG, MCU, etc. are conducted using the latest system. Noble Heart Hospitals provide a complete range of imaging services for the clinic and hospital patients including:
X-Ray: An X-ray is a quick, painless test that produces images of the structures inside your body particularly your bones.X-ray beams can pass through your body, but they are absorbed in different amounts depending on the density of the material they pass through. Dense materials, such as bone and metal, show up as white on X-rays. The air in your lungs shows up as black. Fat and muscle appear as varying shades of grey.
Mammography: A mammogram is an X-ray image of your breast used to detect breast cancer. Noble Heart Hospital provides Conventional Mammography to help with the early detection of breast cancer. The Radiologist can view and manipulate the images on high-resolution computer monitors that enhance visualization of the structures within the breast tissues. They also can adjust brightness and contrast, and zoom in on specific areas to help detect small calcifications, masses and other changes that may be signs of early cancer.
Digital X-ray: Digital radiography is a form of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used instead of traditional photographic film. Advantages include time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer and enhance images. Also, less radiation can be used to produce an image of similar contrast to conventional radiography. Instead of X-ray film, digital radiography uses a digital image capture device. This gives advantages of immediate image preview and availability; elimination of costly film processing steps, a wider dynamic range, which makes it more forgiving for over and under-exposure as well as the ability to apply special image processing techniques that enhance the overall display quality of the image.
CT Scan: A computerized tomography (CT) scan is a detailed X-ray used to produce three-dimensional images of the body. This type of imagery allows doctors to view the body without having to perform surgery. The scanner is shaped like a circle, which the patient slides into the center so the machine can Xray the body from all sides. CT scans are painless and typically take only a few minutes to complete.
