IMAGING

Imaging tests provide important information about different parts of the body and help doctors diagnose a condition, determine the severity of a disease and monitor people after the condition is diagnosed . Most imaging tests are painless, relatively safe and non-invasive (meaning they do not require an incision in the skin or the insertion of an instrument into the body).

• Dr. Sorin Ghiea, one of the most experienced radiologists in Romania and President of the Romanian Society of Musculoskeletal Imaging
• Dr. Pantu Cosmin, radiologist specialized in musculoskeletal pathology, MRI, ultrasounds and intraarticular and periarticular infiltrations.

Imaging tests can use the following:

MRI in orthopedic diseases

MRI is the most complex method of investigating patients, with the help of which three-dimensional images can be obtained from any part of the body. Unlike X-rays and CT, an MRI does not use radiation, it practically does not irradiate the body.

Musculoskeletal ultrasound

Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a non-invasive, non-radiant and painless scanning method, with a diagnostic role for many conditions, from ruptured ligaments to herniated discs, but also for precise needle guidance during injections.

Even patients with metal implants or cardiac implants can undergo the examination (which is not possible with MRI). In addition, patients are in a more comfortable position and tolerate this method much more easily. Musculoskeletal ultrasound allows real-time dynamic examination of the patient - Static imaging cannot clearly show moving tissues and structures when pain and dysfunction occur. With the help of musculoskeletal ultrasound, the doctor can see what is happening to the joint at that very moment of the movement that causes the pain.

The activity of our Department of Medical Imaging Radiology is complemented by infiltrations under ultrasound guidance, a quick and effective remedy against pain and lack of mobility.

You can find here a detailed list of the prices of individual services. But any correct recovery process is based on a mixed plan of therapies and procedures, customized according to the condition, stage of the condition, patient profile, and other objective medical factors. As a result, in order to configure a treatment plan, with the therapies involved and the prices related to the plan, please make an appointment here for an initial consultation.
