CT [Computed Axial Tomography]
At Clínica Premium we have the most advanced diagnostic techniques, such as computed tomography (CAT), which uses special X-ray and computer equipment to create detailed images of internal structures of the body. It is used for diagnostic and medical evaluation purposes to obtain information about soft tissues, bones and internal organs. The most common uses of CT scanning include:
- Diagnosis of injuries and diseases: tumors, cysts, infections, inflammations, hemorrhages and other anomalies.
- Bone Densitometry: Commonly used to diagnose osteoporosis, a disease in which bones become brittle and prone to fractures. Measuring bone mineral density: Bone densitometry is usually performed on the spine, hip, or forearm.
- Evaluation of traumatic injuries: such as bone fractures, internal bleeding, and damage to internal organs after an accident or injury.
- Evaluation of cardiovascular diseases: CT angiography is used to evaluate the arteries and veins of the body, including the coronary arteries.
- Evaluation of lung diseases: Chest CT is used to diagnose and evaluate lung diseases, such as lung cancer, pulmonary embolism, infections, and interstitial diseases.
- Study of diseases of the nervous system: CT is used to evaluate the brain and spinal cord for tumors, hemorrhages, traumatic injuries, and other neurological conditions.
Our computed tomography (CT) equipment provides images in real time and with great precision; It has certain protocols and technical specifications such as:
- Calcium score to prevent heart attacks.
- 3D reconstructions that facilitate vision when operating.
- Dual energy CT scan that allows us to know what material kidney stones or stones are made of.
- Special pediatric clinical protocols with a wide range of adjustments, where the x-ray exposure is adapted to the weight and age of the child (and small adults), substantially reducing the patient’s effective dose.
