Diagnostic Imaging Department
64-Slice CT Imaging
UMC has a GE 64-slice, state-of-the-art, CT imaging system. This unrivaled image quality provides remarkable speed that can produce detailed pictures of any organ in a few seconds and provide sharp, clear, three-dimensional images, including 3-D views of the blood vessels, in an instant. UMC's GE 64-slice CT scanner delivers high-speed, high-resolution images, which allows physicians to capture precise images of any area of the body, including the rapidly moving heart and lungs, which frequently appear blurry when scanned by a traditional CT scanner. This fast scanning capability allows important diagnostic information concerning the heart to be obtained within a single breath-hold as short as 5 seconds, and a full body scan (in search of a blood clot, for example, that has become a source of emboli) in 13 seconds.

MRI
Our Phillips 1.5 Tesla MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is an imaging tool with a large magnet that uses radio waves and a computer to make detailed cross-sectional pictures of the body. The results are 2 and 3 dimensional "slices" or scans through a body part showing body tissues or vessels. MRI uses no x-ray radiation and is considered harmless. MRI scans are able to detect or show better detail of some conditions when compared with regular x-rays.
