Computed Tomography (CT) is a medical imaging method used to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of an area using X-rays.
Computed Tomography (256 slices)

Computed Tomography (CT) is a medical imaging method used to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of an area using X-rays. This technology enables the creation of cross-sectional images with the help of a computer by measuring the transmission properties of rays to anatomical structures within the body. CT is often used to evaluate internal organs, soft tissues and bones.

Liv Hospital Computed Tomography

 

Liv Hospital offers its patients a high-level medical imaging experience by using the latest technology in healthcare services. GE Discovery CT750 HD (Spectral Imaging) tomography device stands out with its high resolution, HD detector and dual energy technique. This advanced tomography system provides detailed anatomical images as well as better separation of different tissues with its spectral imaging capability. Liv Hospital's Computed Tomography service aims to offer its patients a sharp, sensitive and fast diagnostic process.

Advanced Examination in Disease Diagnosis

 

It is among the first tests requested for the evaluation of many parts, such as the brain, that cannot be shown on direct radiographs. It is one of the advanced tests required to diagnose diseases when a problem is encountered in the direct x-ray or in the presence of findings that do not explain the clinical condition of the patient.

Much Lower Radiation

 

Since examinations such as MRI and Ultrasound are radiation-free methods, the patient is not exposed to radiation. In imaging performed using X-rays such as direct radiography, CT and angiography, the patient is exposed to some radiation. Liv Hospital Radiology Department reduces the radiation dose exposed by 80 percent with the technologies it uses.

Special Shooting for Children

 

Thanks to the special pediatric parameters in the system, tomographic imaging can be performed on pediatric patients coming to Liv Hospital with a minimum radiation dose close to x-ray doses, depending on their height and weight.

Advanced Imaging

 

With Spectral Imaging imaging technique, lesion characterization, types of kidney stones, detection of hypoperfusion areas in pulmonary embolism examination, metastasis characterization, gut-pseudo gout distinction, reduction of artifacts of metal implants entering the imaging area, plaque characterization of whole body vessels and cardiac vessels can be performed.

Thanks to HD algorithms, cardiac lumen and in-stent evaluation can be performed easily and safely. These algorithms enable very high diagnostic quality to be achieved in all joints and areas requiring high resolution.
