3D Mammograms — also known as Tomosynthesis — involves taking multiple X-ray images of the breast from different angles to create a detailed, three-dimensional view of the breast tissue. This advanced imaging technique allows for 👇🏾 ✅ Earlier detection of abnormalities ✅ Fewer patient recalls, especially for further biopsies ✅ Better detection in women with […]
Fibroids and ovarian cysts are both common conditions for women, however they differ greatly in composition and location. Fibroids are solid, non-cancerous muscle growths that develop in the uterus and can lead to heavy periods and pelvic pressure. Cysts are fluid-filled sacs that usually form in the ovaries, sometimes causing pain or discomfort. Fibroids are […]
While a bone densitometry scan or DEXA is well-known for its role in assessing bone density in postmenopausal women, its application extends far beyond this age group. DEXA can be utilised to screen bone health in premenopausal women, men, children and adolescents too. If you would like to learn more about DEXA, please send us […]
Fluoroscopy is a powerful imaging technique that provides real-time, dynamic X-ray images, allowing doctors to observe the movement and function of your internal organs, vessels, and tissues as they work. By using contrast agents, it enhances the visibility of specific areas, helping to diagnose issues like blockages or abnormal motility with greater accuracy. Additionally, fluoroscopy […]
Blocked fallopian tubes can significantly impact your fertility, often due to infections, endometriosis, or scar tissue. Fortunately, Fallopian Tube Recanalisation (FTR) may offer a solution. For more information about FTR, please send us a message online or visit our website .
A hysterosalpingogram (HSG) is a helpful X-ray procedure used in fertility diagnosis to assess the health of your uterus and fallopian tubes. By introducing a contrast dye, the HSG provides detailed images that can reveal blockages in the fallopian tubes and identify abnormalities like fibroids or an irregularly shaped uterus. This test is essential for […]
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland in ageing men, often linked to hormonal changes. This enlargement can cause uncomfortable urinary symptoms. Prostate Artery Embolisation (PAE) is a minimally invasive alternative to surgery, where a tiny incision allows a catheter […]
A nephrostomy is a procedure where a fine tube is inserted through a small incision in the back, and guided into the kidney to drain urine. This procedure is often used when the ureter – which normally carries urine to the bladder – is blocked. A ureter blockage can place kidney health at great risk, […]
Although fibroids are often associated with women over 30, they can occur at any stage of life, including teenage years, childbearing years, and even post-menopause. Given that 70-80% of women will develop fibroids, widespread awareness and understanding of the condition is our ultimate goal. If you have been diagnosed with fibroids and would like […]
Fallopian Tube Recanalisation (FTR) is a minimally invasive procedure designed to enhance fertility by addressing blockages in the fallopian tubes. These blockages can result from various factors such as 👇🏾 ☑️Scarring from previous abdominal surgery ☑️Certain sexually transmitted infections ☑️Previous ectopic pregnancy ☑️Endometriosis ☑️Hydrosalpinx For blockages caused by debris, FTR demonstrates a success rate of […]
