Diagnostic Imaging

 

The diagnostic imaging division includes: traditional Radiology, Computerised Axial Tomography (TAC), Magnetic Resonance (RM), Computerised Bone Mineralometry (MOC), Angiocardiography and Haemodynamic, Echography and Echocolordoppler, Nuclear Medicine in vitro and in vivo, Endoscopic Senology, digestive and respiratory.
The activity of the division, equipped with highly technological instruments, is dedicated to diagnostics and treatment of all relevant cases, but also to the production of analogic imaging of integrated type obtained through digitally eleborated methodologies, for teaching and research aims.
The constant updating of technological instrumentation has allowed the development of TAC and MOC to include a helicoidal scanning system with volumetric acquisition . Clear and detailed images are swiftly obtained, with significant advantage for both diagnostic results and the patient. 
Magnetic Resonance systems have recently been developed to include a new high level system to carry out, besides routine investigations, specific tests including "Fast Imaging" and Angio-Magnetic Resonance (Angio RM).
The Nuclear Medicine section is endowed with a modern rotating total body gamma camera that carries out all tests made possible today by this methodology, including SPET.
Another section has an "Advantage Windows" module, specific for radio-diagnosis. Innovative in the field of multimodal diagnostic imaging workstations, this module allows three-dimensional reconstruction and the possibility of animation of MOC, RM, SPET and ANGIOGRAPHIC imaging, so enabling representation and rebuilding of an entire area in all its anatomical components (integrated imaging).
