Diagnostic Imaging Services
ERA offers a wide range of diagnostic imaging services to help diagnose various medical conditions. These include:
1. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
MRI uses powerful magnets and radio waves to produce detailed images of the body's internal structures. It is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions affecting the brain, spine, joints, abdomen, pelvis, and blood vessels.
2. Computed Tomography (CT)
CT scans use X-rays to create detailed images of the body's internal structures. They are particularly useful for diagnosing conditions affecting the chest, abdomen, pelvis, bones, and blood vessels.
3. Ultrasound
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of the body's internal structures. It is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions affecting the abdomen, pelvis, thyroid gland, breasts, testicles or scrotum in men or ovaries in women.
4. Mammography
Mammography uses low-dose X-rays to produce images of breast tissue that can help detect breast cancer at an early stage when it’s most treatable.
5. Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine involves injecting small amounts of radioactive material into your bloodstream which then collects in certain organs or tissues where it emits gamma rays that can be detected by special cameras outside your body producing detailed pictures that can help diagnose various medical conditions such as cancerous tumors or heart disease.
Interventional Radiology Services
In addition to diagnostic imaging services ERA also provides interventional radiology procedures which are minimally invasive alternatives to traditional surgery. These procedures are performed using imaging guidance such as X-rays, CT scans, or ultrasound to precisely target the area of interest.
1. Angiography
Angiography is a minimally invasive procedure that uses X-rays and contrast dye to visualize blood vessels in the body. It can be used to diagnose and treat conditions such as aneurysms, blockages or narrowing of blood vessels.
2. Embolization
Embolization is a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting tiny particles into blood vessels to block off the flow of blood to certain areas of the body such as tumors or abnormal growths.
3. Biopsy
A biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves removing a small sample of tissue from an organ or other part of the body for examination under a microscope. This can help diagnose various medical conditions including cancerous tumors.
4. Drainage Procedures
Drainage procedures involve inserting a thin tube called a catheter into an area where fluid has accumulated in order to drain it out and relieve pressure on surrounding tissues.
5. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat generated by radio waves to destroy cancerous tumors without damaging surrounding healthy tissue.
