Computed Tomography (CT) uses low dosage x-rays to produce a volume of data that can be displayed as cross sections (slices) in multiple planes. This volumetric data may also be used to produce 3 dimensional images. The images can be digitally manipulated in order to display tissues of varying density from lung to bone. Any part of the body may be imaged using CT.
CIG provides low dose, multi-slice CT services at all of our locations. We perform all routine imaging of the body including neurological, oncology, musculoskeletal and vascular (CT angiography), along with CT guided interventional procedures such as spinal injections and biopsies.
Our Deakin site offers an industry leading ultra low-dose 640 slice CT with advanced cardiac capabilities, and an increased gantry aperture to cater for larger and claustrophobic patients. Lifting equipment is available at our Deakin and Bruce Private Hospital sites for non-ambulant patients.
Imaging of the large bowel (CT colonography) is performed at our Bruce Private Hospital site, allowing complete evaluation of the large bowel where conventional colonoscopy has not been successful.
Canberra Imaging is the leading provider of The National Lung Cancer Screening Program (NLCSP) in the ACT, offering the screening in all 10 of our practices.
