What is Radiology?

Radiological procedures are used for looking at the internal structures of the body, whether bone or soft tissue. Usually these examinations are carried out to:
  • diagnose disease states, such as cancer or heart disease
  • show the extent of injury to body structures
  • to aid in interventional procedures, such as angiography.
The radiologist may use different methods such as, X-ray, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ultrasound as well as some other specialised types of radiological imaging.
 

The Team

  • Medical Radiation Technologists (MRTs) or Radiographers perform your X-ray, and mammography examinations.
  • Sonographers are MRTs who perform your ultrasound examinations.
  • Radiologists are specialist doctors who read and understand your films. They will also be involved if you have an intravenous urogram (IVU), mammogram and a number of other ultrasound procedures.  They interpret the results of the images and send them to your doctor.

Staff

We have an experienced and dynamic team of Radiologists and Medical Imaging Technologists supported by skilled Radiology Assistants.

We place significant emphasis on training our professional team of clinical and administrative staff. Every member of staff is carefully chosen to offer a comprehensive mix of skills, including total commitment to quality patient care.

Services Provided

X-ray

An X-ray is a high frequency, high energy wave form. It cannot be seen with the naked eye, but can be picked up on photographic film. Although you may think of an X-ray as a picture of bones, a trained observer can also see air spaces, like the lungs (which look black) and fluid (which looks white, but not as white as bones). What to expect? You will have all metal objects removed from your body. You will be asked to remain still in a specific position and hold your breath on command. There are staff present, but they will not necessarily remain in the room, but will speak with you via an intercom system and will be viewing the procedure constantly through a windowed control room. The examination time will vary depending on the type of procedure required, but as a rule it will take around 30 minutes. Find out more about x-rays at Taranaki Radiology here
