Dynamic service


The dynamism of our nuclear medicine department makes us the envy of many institutions. Its outstanding team spirit favours the sharing of expertise.

We have leading edge equipment, and in the spring 2005 we will add a brand new dual-headed tomographic camera. We also have three triple-headed tomographic cameras and two others that are being used primarily for planar studies. For several years, all our examinations have been performed digitally.

Myocardial cardiac perfusion with stress and persantine as well as MUGA scans are the exams that we most perform the most frequently. We also offer a large variety of exams such as V/Q scans, bone scans and renal scans.

The specialization and diversity of our different exams and techniques make us extremely versatile. Doctors and technologists are also involved in numerous research projects.
