Open-sided and upright weight-bearing MRI scanners designed specifically for patients suffering from claustrophobia, anxiety, or mobility restrictions.

Computed Tomography combining advanced X-ray measurements from multiple angles to generate detailed 3D volumetric images of bones, lungs, and internal organs.

Specialised cardiac ultrasound assessing the structural chambers, wall motion, and heart valve efficiency using Doppler colour blood flow mapping.

Non-invasive vascular diagnostic imaging using magnetic resonance or CT contrast to map blood flow, stenosis, aneurysms, and arterial health.

Specialised upper gastrointestinal diagnostic examination using a thin flexible camera to inspect the oesophagus, stomach, and duodenum.

Direct visual internal scoping of the gastrointestinal tract under gentle sedation or local anaesthetic for definitive diagnosis and biopsy sampling.
