64-Slice CT Scanning at Meredyth
We are proud to offer 64-slice computed tomography with the GE LightSpeed VCT system. With its dramatically improved images and fastest scan times in the industry, this innovative system allows us to diagnose a whole host of medical problems faster and more accurately than ever before. Such conditions include coronary artery disease, cancer, benign tumors, aneurysms, heart disease, lung disease, vascular disease, kidney problems, liver disease, musculoskeletal disorders, and more.
Unlike traditional CT systems, the 64-slice system is capable of showing internal structures of the body with substantially greater anatomic detail. This helps our physicians make an accurate diagnosis and may eliminate the need for other procedures, such as coronary angiography, exploratory surgery, and surgical biopsy.
The 64-slice LightSpeed VCT is used for a multitude of applications, including:
-
Neurologic Imaging
-
Musculoskeletal Imaging
-
CT Coronary Angiography (CTA)
-
Cardiac Imaging
-
Thoracic and Abdominal Imaging
-
Cerebral, Renal, and Peripheral Angiography
