CT Scan

What is CT Scan

Our department is equipped with three advanced CT scanners: two Siemens SOMATOM Force and one Siemens Definition Flash. These high-tech, dual-source CT scanners deliver ultra-fast, high-resolution imaging, ideal for complex cases in cardiac care, oncology, trauma, and comprehensive body scans. The Siemens SOMATOM Force is especially patient-friendly, reducing radiation exposure without sacrificing image quality, making it suitable for patients of all ages.

Why Choose Our CT Scanner

Dual-Source Technology

Equipped with two X-ray tubes for quicker, clearer scans.

High-Speed Scanning

Ideal for capturing detailed images of moving organs like the heart.

Low Radiation Dose

Minimises patient exposure while preserving image quality.

Versatile Applications

Suitable for a wide range of scans, including cardiac, abdominal, and trauma imaging.

Here’s how the SOMATON Force CT Scanner delivers unmatched precision and speed

Cardiac Imaging

Fast, motion-free imaging captures clear images of the heart, aiding in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease and congenital heart issues.

Oncology (Cancer Diagnosis & Staging)

High-resolution imaging with excellent soft-tissue contrast supports cancer diagnosis, staging, and monitoring across multiple organs.

Paediatric Imaging

Safe, low-dose technology ensures comfort and precision for young patients, ideal for diagnosing congenital conditions and trauma.

Trauma Cases

Rapid whole-body scans provide immediate, clear images for comprehensive assessment in critical situations.

Pulmonary Imaging

Effective for lung conditions like COPD, pulmonary embolisms, and lung nodules, providing detailed images with minimal contrast dose.

Neurological Imaging

High-resolution brain and spine imaging assists in diagnosing strokes, tumours, and traumatic injuries, even in urgent cases.

Vascular Imaging

Dual-energy technology enables detailed views of blood vessels, aiding in the identification of aneurysms, clots, and other vascular issues.

Abdominal & Pelvic Imaging

Quick, precise imaging of organs like the liver and kidneys is valuable for both emergency and routine exams.

Orthopaedic Imaging

Enhanced bone and soft-tissue contrast supports accurate diagnoses for fractures, joint issues, and complex trauma cases.

Whole-Body Scans

Low-dose scans provide comprehensive health assessments, beneficial for cancer screenings and general health evaluations.

Interventional Procedures

Precise guidance for biopsies, catheter placements, and drainage procedures enhances the safety and effectiveness of treatments.

Photon-Counting CT Scanner

We’re excited to announce the upcoming arrival of the Siemens NAEOTOM Alpha — the first photon-counting CT scanner available in Malaysia. This revolutionary technology takes diagnostic imaging to new heights with its exceptional clarity, precision, and safety features.

The NAEOTOM Alpha’s advanced photon-counting detector offers remarkably detailed images with enhanced tissue contrast, making it especially valuable for cardiac imaging, oncology, and vascular assessments. This state-of-the-art addition will allow us to diagnose with greater accuracy while reducing radiation exposure, underscoring our commitment to providing top-tier, patient-centred care.

Key Features

Superior Image Quality: High-resolution images capture fine details, enhancing the visualisation of complex tissues, blood vessels, and even the smallest tumours.
Enhanced Tissue Contrast: Increased tissue differentiation provides clearer, more accurate imaging, aiding in the detection of cancers, vascular diseases, and neurological conditions.
Lower Radiation Dose: Advanced photon-counting technology significantly reduces radiation exposure, promoting patient safety without sacrificing image quality.
Faster Scanning Times: Rapid scans reduce patient discomfort and streamline workflows, particularly useful in emergency situations or for critically ill patients.

Here’s how the NAEOTOM Alpha CT Scanner sets a new standard in imaging precision and safety

Cardiac Imaging

High-resolution scans of the heart and coronary arteries at any heart rate — no beta-blockers needed.

Oncology

Enhanced imaging for detecting tumours, staging cancers, and assessing metastasis, especially in soft tissues.

Vascular Imaging

Assesses blood vessels for aneurysms, clots, and blockages, supporting vascular treatments.

Neurological Imaging

Offers detailed views of the brain and spine, ideal for diagnosing strokes, tumours, and injuries.

Pulmonary Imaging

Exceptional sensitivity to lung tissues and soft organs, aiding in the diagnosis of diseases like emphysema and pulmonary embolism.

Abdominal and Pelvic Imaging

Clear images of abdominal organs support diagnosis of conditions like kidney stones, liver lesions, and abdominal tumours.

Benefits of NAEOMTOM Alpha

Precision Diagnostics

Earlier detection of diseases with sharper, more precise images.

Reduced Contrast Use

Minimises contrast requirements, safer for patients with allergies or contraindications.

Emergency Efficiency

Faster scans enhance ER and critical care response times.

Paediatric and Geriatric Safety

Reduced radiation exposure makes it ideal for sensitive populations.
