Modern diagnostic options at the Salvator Clinic
As the clinic provides treatment for a variety of illnesses, there is a maximum of opportunities to examine them here. Each patient undergoes an individual diagnostic programme before being prescribed a course of treatment. This may include examinations such as the following:
Magnetic resonance imaging is a safe examination used to detect a large number of pathologies of joints, internal organs and other tissues.
Electroencephalography is used to assess the electrical activity of the brain when neurological diseases are suspected or to monitor treatment progression.
Computed tomography is a diagnostic method that produces high-resolution images of the area under examination. This allows doctors to see minimal changes in the tissue and prescribe treatment in the early stages of the disease.
Computerised bone mineralometry - a non-invasive test that can be used to assess bone density. X-rays are used in the examination, their degree of exposure is several times lower than that of a standard radiograph.
Mammography with tomosynthesis is a modern method of digital radiography and is used to examine the breast in three dimensions. This diagnostic option makes it possible to detect neoplasms at an early stage 40% more successfully than other methods of examination.
