Computerised Tomography (CT) scan is a medical imaging technique using a series of X-rays which are digitally
processed to create cross-sectional images (slices) of the bones, blood vessels and soft tissues inside the body.
CT scans can be used to examine soft tissue, air, fluid, bone, vessels and all other internal structures of the body.
As a non-invasive and painless procedure, CT scans have become an important widespread imaging tool since introduction and are commonly used by the NHS.
Diagnostic Healthcare has a long-standing track record of delivering CT services from static clinic locations and from mobile and modular facilities. The CT service is delivered by highly trained Radiographers who are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and follow a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme.
Diagnostic Healthcare continuously invests in the latest CT technology to provide the best experience for its patients and staff.
