CT Scan

A CT scan is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of X-rays and computer technology to produce images of the inside of the body.

X-Ray

An x-ray machine sends individual x-ray particles through the body;  the resulting images are recorded on a computer.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to look at organs and structures inside the body. During pregnancy, doctors use ultrasound tests to examine the baby. Unlike an x-ray, an ultrasound does not involve exposure to radiation.

Mammogram

Mammography is an x-ray of the breast that uses low doses of radiation. The picture made during mammography is called a mammogram. It can help find both cancerous (malignant) and non-cancerous (benign) tumours in the breast.

Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Testing

A bone mineral density (BMD) test measures how much calcium and other types of minerals are in an area of your bone. The test helps your healthcare provider detect osteoporosis and predict your risk of bone fractures.

Electrocardiogram

An electrocardiogram, also called an ECG or EKG, records the heart’s electrical activity, showing how fast it’s beating, whether your heartbeat is steady or irregular, and the strength and timing of electrical signals as they pass through each part of your heart.

Holter Monitoring

A Holter monitor is a device that continuously records the heart’s rhythms. The monitor is usually worn for 24 to 48 hours during normal activity.

Echocardiogram

An echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the heart. The test is routinely used in the diagnosis, management and follow-up of patients with any suspected or known heart diseases.

Thank You

“I wanted to tell you how truly grateful I am for the Clinics at KDH. Almost a year of injections for pain in Dr. Jamal’s clinic have been quite successful and after last Friday's appointment, I am now on "remit" until November. Through Dr. Jamal I was referred to Dr. Fox, who diagnosed Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in my right wrist, for which I had surgery with Dr. Chan – all through your Clinic system. Everyone in the Clinics has been so helpful and kind throughout this: Kerry and Chrissie at the door and June in Bookings. They have made my visits easier and contributed to my recovery. I feel they are friends, as well as the doctors. KDH is a great hospital with wonderful people. Carry on!”
