Our technology

Each of our scanners is truly world class. We continually invest in cutting edge technology to ensure
we remain at the very forefront of diagnostic imaging capabilities. No other imaging services provider
in the world possesses our combination of advanced scanners.

GE Discovery MI 4 Ring Gen 2 Digital PET-CT scanner

GE CT750HD

The GE CT750 HD brings faster, clearer images with radiation dose reduction.
Increased detail through the body and greater detail in the heart with the use of GE’s
Gemstone Detector™.
High-definition image quality across anatomies – the Discovery CT750 HD can reach any part of the
body of virtually any patient.

Siemens Magnetom AERA 1.5T MRI

Motion technology ‘FREEZEit’ enabling us to offer free-breathing scans to patients who struggle
with holding their breath for periods of time.
New, smart automation techniques to ensure consistent, high-quality imaging.
A 70cm wide bore to maximise patient comfort.

Acquilion ONE PRISM Edition

Specialist software (AiCE) unique to the PRISM, provides the best image quality performed at low
radiation dose. Offering dose savings of up to 82.4%.
One rotation scanning makes CT cardiac imaging suitable for a wider group of patients, including
those with irregular heart rhythm and those with metal pacemaker wires, something no other CT
scanner can provide.
Enables dynamic imaging of joints in the most realistic way possible allowing for more accurate
diagnosis of MSK and joint conditions.
The unique ability to acquire anatomical and functional data simultaneously, improving clinical
pathways.

OpenMR Upright and Open MRI scanner

OpenMR is completely open above the patient, avoiding any sense of claustrophobia.
The system uses a weight-bearing approach for upright scanning of the patient, including allows
full flexion/extension views
The extra-wide bore facilitates the scanning of larger patients, children and elderly patients by
being a less intimidating environment

EOS Dual Source Upright CT scanner

The unique biplanar design and vertical scanning technique acquires frontal and lateral images in
either a standing or seated position.
allows rapid and painless imaging of the entire skeleton at the lowest achievable radiation dose –
As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA)
Discern compensation between the spine, hip and knee thanks to full body, weight-bearing images
Calculates precise 2D and 3D measurements, free from magnification or stitching bias

3T Siemens Magnetom Skyra MRI scanner

The powerful 3T magnet, delivers high-quality, clear images making it one of the highest quality
MRI exams available today.
Enables fast examinations, ideal for patients who find remaining immobile for an extended time
difficult, and helps minimize motion-related artefacts.
Optimal technology for musculoskeletal, cardiac, neurology and prostate imaging
The 70cm wide bore, and 30cm of space above the patient’s face, improves patient comfort.

1.5T Siemens Magnetom Sonata MRI scanner

Designed to deliver exceptional imaging in hard-to-image patient groups, those with surgical
implants, patients with pain, anxious patients.
Conventional MRI imaging can show severe image artefacts in patients with orthopaedic implants,
which limit the adoption of MRI in follow-up, however, cutting-edge technology allows better
visualisation of surrounding soft tissues leading to accurate diagnosis and improving patient
outcomes.
The 60cm wide bore maximises patient comfort.

GE Discover MI 4 Ring Gen 2 digital PET CT scanner

The Discovery’s wide range of digital features delivers excellent lesion detectability, spatial
resolution and quantification accuracy bringing a higher standard of care to more patients.
MotionFree is the first-ever digital respiratory motion management solution that completely
eliminates the need for a gating device. It continually monitors respiratory motion in every
procedure, and when it detects an anomaly, it automatically modifies the scan and integrates what
it learns into the final image in real time. MotionFree is the new standard for PET imaging and an
essential tool for better outcomes.
Digital PET-CT technology offers the opportunity to reduce scan times and radiation dose, whilst
providing increased sensitivity and spatial resolution of images allowing for more accurate
detection and characterisation of small lesions.

Aplio 500 ultrasound scanner

Our multi-purpose ultrasound suite provides superb diagnostic imaging across a wide range of
specialties, including abdominal, cardiac, obstetrics & gynaecology, vascular and musculoskeletal.

Our specialised Consultant Musculoskeletal team provide ultrasound guided injections for a
multitude of soft tissue and joint conditions, including platelet rich plasma therapy (PRP), hyaluronic
acid and corticosteroid injections.

All examinations are performed by and reported on by Consultant Radiologists in their area of specialist expertise.

Wonderful, clean, spacious building. Helpful, friendly,
professional staff. I was looked after very well.

B. Howard
PET-CT patient

All of the staff, from reception to all the nurses and MRI
scanning team, were absolutely lovely. Very friendly and
caring, and kept me well informed throughout.
