Cardiac Diagnostics

Cardiac Diagnostics
  • Echocardiogram
  • Treadmill Stress Test (Exercise Stress Test)
  • Holter
  • 24-hours Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)

An Echocardiogram uses sound waves to produce images of your heart. This test is commonly being carried out as to allow your doctor to see how your heart is beating and pumping blood. Your doctor can use the images from the echocardiogram to identify various abnormalities in the heart muscles and valves.

Treadmill Stress Test (Exercise Stress Test) is a test for the diagnosis of Coronary Diseases by exercising to induce symptoms. It is also used to identify the patient exercise capacity. Doctor may recommend an exercise stress test if they suspect you have Coronary Artery Disease or an irregular heart rhythm (Arrhythmias). The test may also use to guide your treatment if you’re already been diagnosed with a heart condition.

Holter is a portable device for continuously monitoring various electrical activity of the heart activity. It can also be used for monitoring brain activity. Its extended recording period useful for observing occasional cardiac arrhythmias or epileptic events which would be difficult to be identified in a shorter period of time.

24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) is just the same as a normal blood pressure check. The machine is small which then can be attached to a belt around your waist while the cuff stays on your upper arm for the full 24 hours. There are couple of reasons why a Doctor might suggest this:

  • Find out if your high blood pressure readings in the clinic are much higher than they are away from clinic – Detect White Coat Syndrome.
  • Doctor may want to see how well your medicines are working, to make sure they are controlling your blood pressure through the day.
  • They may want to see if your blood pressure stays high at night. If this is the case, they may need to change or adjust your medicines.

640-slice MSCT

The Aquilion One family implements an array of adaptive and integrated dose reduction strategies. These strategies are implemented at every stage of the scanning process starting from patient registration through to data acquisition. It is one of the most revolutionary and advanced scanners and only a handful of these machines are available in Malaysia and the region.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to investigate the anatomy and physiology of the body in both health and disease. These scanners use strong magnetic fields and radio-waves to form images of the body. The technique is widely used in hospitals for medical diagnosis, staging of disease and for follow-up without exposure to ionizing radiation.

Full-field Digital Mammography

A mammogram that provides highly detailed images of the internal structure of the breast. Mammography plays a central role in the early detection of breast cancer, as it is able to reveal abnormal growths and tumours that are too small for you or the doctor to feel.

DEXA Bone Densitometry

Bone density scanning, also called dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or bone densitometry, is an enhanced form of x-ray technology that is used to measure bone loss. DXA is today’s established standard for measuring bone mineral density (BMD).

Ultrasound

Ultrasound imaging is also called ultrasound scanning or sonography, a method of obtaining images from inside the human body through the use of high frequency sound waves. The reflected sound wave echoes are converted into a visual image and displayed live on a screen. No radiation (x-ray) is involved in ultrasound imaging.

X-Ray / Fluoroscopy

Uses X-rays to obtain real-time moving images of the internal structures of a patient. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists of an x-ray source and fluorescent screen between which a patient is placed. The screen is coupled to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera allowing the images to be recorded and displayed on a monitor and recorded.

Audiology Services

Our Audiology department provides hearing healthcare to patients of all ages (children, adults, and the aging population). We offer a full range of hearing tests, including infant and industrial hearing screening. Newborn hearing screening enables the early detection of hearing problems and can help minimise delays in a child’s ability to learn language. We also offer rehabilitation with hearing aids.

Physiotherapy & Occupational Therapy

Physiotherapy & Occupational Therapy aims to help those who are temporarily or permanently disabled to achieve maximum independence. It is well-equipped to treat a variety of conditions for in-patients and out-patients. Various electrotherapy treatment as well as manual techniques and exercises are applied accordingly.
