| We provide a number of scans & tests to private & insurance clients. We provide UK wide coverage in collaboration with network of our partner diagnostic centers across the country. Some of the scans & tests we provide are listed below: |
| |
| CT Scans - Computed Tomography or CAT Scan : |
| |
| What is a CT scan? CT stands for Computed Tomography. A CT scan or CAT scan uses x-rays to obtain images of your body and uses a computer software to create cross sections of the body and organs. |
| |
| If you would like to know about CT body scans, and the availability and cost of CT body scans for you, or your clients, please contact us by filling the ‘Request a Quote’ form on this page. |
| |
| Private MRI scans (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) : |
| |
| MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. An MRI scan uses magnetic fields instead of X Rays to create a picture of your body, and uses a computer program to create cross sections of the body and organs. |
| |
| We provide MRI scans for private and insurance customers in collaboration with our diagnostics partners across the United Kingdom. |
| |
| Private PET scans (Positron Emission Tomography) : |
| |
| PET stands for Positron Emission Tomography. A PET scan is a medical imaging technique which produces a three dimensional image or map of functional processes in the body. It is used to detect cancers, and in the diagnosis of conditions such as heart disease and Alzheimer's disease. |

| |
| Private ultrasound scans : |
| |
| Ultrasound is a diagnostic scanning technique. It uses high frequency sound waves that are transmitted through the body. The sound waves are reflected back from the body's organs and bones. The difference in the strength and delay of the signal returning gives the information in a variety of shades of black, white and grey. These images are displayed onto a monitor and interpreted by an expert in ultrasound. |
| |
| Ultrasound scanning is perfectly safe, it does not use radiation, just sound waves. A major advantage of ultrasound is that the images appear in 'real time' so the movement of muscles, tendons, organs and blood flow can all be visualised. |
| |
| We provide ultraound scans services throughout the country. |
| |
| Osteoporosis screening in the UK : |
| |
| What is osteoporosis? |
| |
| Osteoporosis is a condition which is characterised by a reduction in the density of bone, and results in brittle bones. Brittle bones can break easiliy. Osteoporosis is a disease which can develop without symptoms for decades. In many cases, the first real "symptom" of osteoporosis is a broken bone. |
| |
| Osteoporosis affects one in three women and one in 12 men over the age of 50 in the UK. If you want to find out more about what puts you at risk of this fragile bone disease then get Osteoporosis screening done at one of our centers in throughout the country. |
| |
| Osteoporosis screening : |
| |
| We provide specialist health screening, offering osteoporosis screening bone scans at centres across the UK. |
| |
| Since osteoporosis can develop "silently" with no obvious symptoms, the only reliable way to determine whether ostoporosis is present is to have a bone density scan, also known as a bone mineral density (BMD) test, dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan, or simply a bone scan. |
| |
| It is a painless and non-invasive bone scan which, depending on the technology, measures bone density in the hip, spine, wrist, heel or hand. |
| |
| Private X-ray |
| |
| Since Röntgen's discovery that X-rays can identify bony structures, X-rays have been developed for their use in medical imaging. |
| |
| We can provide private X-ray scanning services in the UK. |
