True to its name, we specialize in female health, and offer mammography, ultrasound and bone density scans.
As much of our focus is on women’s health, our Women’s Wellness Centre was established to provide a dedicated area for ladies where they can feel comfortable and enjoy privacy while receiving top quality healthcare
Bone Density Scanning, also known as Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) or Bone Densitometry, is a safe low dose X-ray technique used to produce images of the bones. It is most commonly performed on the lumbar spine and hips but sometimes also includes the distal forearm. Our bone density tests provide valuable insights into bone strength, enabling early detection and prevention of osteoporosis and related conditions.
Osteoporosis is a disorder in which the density and quality of the bones are decreased. A reduction in bone mass and strength makes the bones brittle & fragile, thereby fracturing easily. Osteoporosis leads to weakness of the bones and increased risk of fracture of bones especially of the spine, hips and forearms.
Mammograms are a specific type of imaging that uses a low-dose x-ray system to examine breasts and is used to aid in the early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases in women.
It is considered the gold standard for early detection of breast cancer, capable of identifying abnormalities such as masses, distortions or microcalcifications that may not be detectable through physical examination alone. Mammography is highly effective, often detecting breast cancers long before they can be found by clinical examination, ultrasound, or other methods.
