Equipment and Technology used at the Médica Sur Imaging Unit:
All our equipment receives ongoing maintenance for optimal performance; thus, we can guarantee an
incomparable image quality, as it is extremely clear and precise.
X-rays - Our equipment has a robotic arm, a SIEMENS Ysio Max, which prevents
patients from coming into contact with the operator, which comes in handy in cases of
infection.
This equipment gives us the opportunity to take panoramic images from the limbs or the full spine,
which differentiates us from most hospitals.
CT Scan - Our SIEMENS Somatom Drive and Definitions equipment, with the capacity
to perform 128 and up to 516 slices is fast with a low radiation dose and has a level of detail
that makes it ideal for high-demand testing.
It is designed to accommodate patients weighing up to 200 kilograms and is especially suitable for
vascular tests such as coronary and brain angiographies.
Ultrasound - We have modern and efficient SIEMENS equipment to perform different
types of ultrasounds, such as standard, color doppler, 3D and 4D UTs to detect circulation issues,
analyze tumors, and the classic application to monitor pregnancy progress and the health of the
baby, inter alia. Ultrasounds are used as a means of monitoring in some procedures such as biopsy,
for the diagnosis of benign and malignant tumors.
Positron Emission Tomography or PET-CT - We have one of the most advanced and
modern PET-CTs in the world, the SIEMENS 64-slice Biograph mCT Flow, which is faster, more
versatile and accurate due to its detector system and simultaneous movement of the table where the
patient is in a lying position.
