64 Slice CT
A 64 slice CT machine is a computed tomography scanner that can capture up to 64 images, or “slices,” of the body in a single rotation. This type of CT machine produces highly detailed 3D images of the body and is commonly used in cardiac imaging to diagnose heart disease and evaluate blood vessels. The speed and detail of a 64 slice CT scan can be particularly useful in emergency situations where quick and accurate diagnosis is critical.
Ultrasound
An ultrasound machine is a medical imaging device that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal structures in the body. The machine sends sound waves into the body and detects the echoes that bounce back to create images of organs, tissues, and other structures. Ultrasound machines are commonly used to monitor fetal development during pregnancy, diagnose conditions related to the heart, liver, and other organs, and to guide minimally invasive procedures.
X-Rays
An X-ray machine is a medical imaging device that uses electromagnetic radiation to produce images of internal structures in the body. The machine sends X-ray beams through the body and captures the radiation that passes through to create images of bones, tissues, and organs. X-ray machines are commonly used to diagnose broken bones, detect infections, and screen for lung cancer.
