Oncological applications

Our CT scanner lets us perform diagnostics of primary lesions and determine metastatic evolution with specialised software for comparing oncology studies.

Our multi-slice CT scanner has a browser, which collects all results and measurements relating to each individual patient.

CT scans are used in oncology in many different ways:

 

▪ To detect the development of any kind of anomaly

▪ To diagnose the presence of a tumour

▪ To get information about the stage (spread) of a cancer

▪ To guide a biopsy procedure

▪ To help plan radiotherapy as well as surgery

▪ To study the effectiveness of cancer treatment

▪ To detect a tumour relapse

Numerous studies have shown that CT scans are effective in the early detection and screening of colorectal cancer (including the detection of polyps) and lung cancer.
