Digital Mammography
Mammography involves utilizing X-ray technology to examine breast tissue, resulting in the creation of an image known as a mammogram. This imaging technique is instrumental in identifying potential issues within the breasts, including cysts and cancer. A mammogram can help detect problems with your breasts, such as cysts or cancer.
- Schedule the test for one week after your period when your breasts are less tender.
- Make sure you get your last mammogram, that lets the doctor compare the two.
- On the morning of your test, wash your breasts and underarms but don’t use deodorant, powder or perfume.
- Wear a top that you can remove easily.
Digital OPG
An Orthopantogram (OPG), also known as a panoramic radiograph, provides a comprehensive view of both the mandible and the teeth.
Reasons for OPG requests
Dental Disease
- Caries – appear as different shaped areas of radiolucency in the crowns or necks of teeth.
- Peridontioiditis – when inflammation extends into the underlying alveolar bone and there is a loss of attachment.
Extraction of teeth (eg. wisdom teeth)
- OPG shows angulation, shape of roots, size and shape of crown, effect on other teeth.
Digital X-Ray
X-rays belong to the category of electromagnetic radiation, similar to visible light. Within a healthcare environment, a device emits individual particles of X-rays, known as photons. These photons traverse through the body, and the resulting images are captured using a computer or specialized film.
Procedure performed in centre. IVP, MCU, RGV, HSG.
ECG
How the Test is Performed
You will be asked to lie down. The health care provider will attach electrodes to Limbs and Chest.
These are connected by wires to a machine that turns the heart’s electrical signals into ECG Graph, which are often printed on paper.
It is important to be relaxed and warm during an ECG recording because any movement may cause vibrations and can alter the results.
EEG
What is EEG?
An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a diagnostic procedure employed to identify issues associated with the brain’s electrical activity. By tracking and recording brain wave patterns, an EEG facilitates the detection of abnormalities. During the procedure, small metal discs attached to slender wires (electrodes) are positioned on the scalp, transmitting signals to a computer for result recording.
Typically, the brain exhibits a distinctive and identifiable pattern of normal electrical activity. Through the utilization of an EEG, medical professionals can identify irregular patterns that signify conditions like seizures and other neurological concerns.
EMG/NCV
EMG (Electromyogram)Â is employed as a diagnostic tool to identify neuromuscular conditions, evaluate lower back pain, study kinesiology, and investigate motor control disorders. Additionally, EMG signals serve as control inputs for prosthetic devices, including prosthetic hands, arms, and lower limbs.
AÂ nerve conduction velocity test (NCV)Â is an electrical examination utilized to determine the efficacy of nerve impulse conduction along a nerve pathway. This assessment is valuable in identifying authentic nerve disorders (such as peripheral neuropathy and mononeuritis multiplex), as well as situations where nerve function is compromised due to mechanical compression injuries (like carpal tunnel syndrome and other compression neuropathies).
What is Electromyography (EMG)?
Nerves carry signals from the brain to the muscles and Nerves controls the action of the muscles by electrical signals, called impulses, that measures your nerve signalling and muscle response. Specifically, the needle EMG measures the electrical activity of your muscles. The aim of the EMG is to identify and determine the location, source of the problem.

Eye Check-Up
The Importance of Regular Eye Check-up
Regardless of age or physical health, it is important for everyone to have regular eye check-up. A complete eye check-up will determine not only your prescription for glasses or contacts, but also checks your eyes for common eye diseases, assesses how your eyes work together and evaluates your eyes as an indicator for your overall health.
Why Should You Get Your Eye check-up?
An eye check-up is one of the best ways to protect your vision because it can detect eye problems at their earliest stage – when they’re most treatable. Regular eye check-up give your eye doctor a chance to help you correct or adapt to vision changes. Even if you think your eyes are healthy, you still need an eye check-up from time to time.

Holter Monitoring
The Holter monitor is a type of portable electrocardiogram (ECG). It records the electrical activity of the heart continuously over 24 hours or longer while you are away from the diagnostic centre.
You may require a Holter monitor ECG if you have symptoms, such as dizziness, fainting, low blood pressure, fatigue, and palpitations and a resting ECG doesn’t show a clear cause. You wear the same kind of ECG electrode patches on your chest, and the electrodes are connected by wires to a small portable recording device.
Certain arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) may occur only now and then. Or, they may occur only under certain conditions, such as stress or activity. Arrhythmias of this type are hard to record on a resting ECG. Because of this, you may be asked to undergo Holter monitoring to get a better chance of capturing any abnormal heartbeats or rhythms that may be causing the symptoms.
