Formed in 2003, the European Scanning Centre has established itself as an internationally renowned diagnostic imaging centre. Our ethos is to provide the very best diagnostic imaging services for referring clinicians and patients. We recognise that no single imaging modality can optimally scan all parts of the body. In order to provide a comprehensive imaging capability, we have installed a suite of scanners which is unique in the world. No other centre possesses our capabilities, which enables us to provide a distinctly superior imaging service. Our suite of scanners comprise of: Open and Upright MRI scanner is the only superconductive MRI scanner that enables fully open and upright imaging of the spine and joints, allowing patients to be scanned in a non-claustrophobic and full weight bearing position. Aquilion One 640 slice CT scanner is the only scanner able to image the heart in a single rotation; this avoids the image obscuring ‘step artefact' observed with lesser quality scanners which require their multiple images to be ‘stitched' together. It also has the lowest radiation exposure of any CT scanner with a CT coronary angiogram. EOS Linear Upright CT scanner allows accurate visualisation of the entire spine and major joints (hips, knees, ankles)which enable precise measurement and assessment for pre and post surgical operations. Aplio 500 Ultrasound scanner is the state-of-the-art ultrasound scanner. Its advanced technology and suite of different probes enables detailed imaging of many organs with no radiation.
