Our Musculoskeletal Imaging Services

We utilise the latest diagnostic imaging tools, including:

  • X-ray: Commonly used to assess bone fractures, arthritis and joint dislocations. It is a fast and effective way to detect structural abnormalities and guide treatment decisions.
  • MRI (magnetic resonance imaging): MRI is a non-invasive imaging technique that provides detailed images of soft tissues, including muscles, ligaments, tendons and cartilage. It is useful for diagnosing soft tissue injuries, spinal problems and joint conditions.
  • Ultrasound: Musculoskeletal ultrasound allows for real-time imaging of muscles, tendons and ligaments, helping to evaluate soft tissues, inflammation and abnormalities. It is a safe and efficient tool, particularly for assessing conditions in the joints and surrounding tissues.
  • CT Scan (computed tomography): CT scans offer cross-sectional images of bones and soft tissues, giving a comprehensive review of the musculoskeletal system. It is particularly helpful in evaluating complex bone fractures, tumours and spinal disorders.
