Computed Tomography

Computed tomography is a non-invasive, elective diagnostic method for the detailed investigation of the structures of internal organs, cardiovascular, respiratory, bone system.
The CT equipment used at the German Diagnostic Center is one of the most efficient and unique in Moldova – SIEMENS SOMATOM DEFINITION EDGE 384 Slice, created specifically for the German Diagnostic Center by our SIEMENS partners.
The most important advantage of the new equipment is your safety, with a very short examination time and a special system that allows a 5-fold reduction in radiation compared to conventional devices. At the same time, the image quality (contrast, resolution) is exceptional.
Moreover, SIEMENS SOMATOM DEFINITION EDGE 384 Slice is equipped with state-of-the-art software, which allows investigating children without anesthesia, which was previously impossible. Due to their performance, angiographic investigations, such as coronary angiography, aortography, renal angiography and extremity angiography, are performed like at any medical institution in countries such as Germany, Austria, Belgium, Great Britain, without any difference.
During the scan, a contrast agent can be administered if necessary, to better “highlight” the examined region. The contrast substance is injected intravenously using Ulrich automatic injectors. It enables real-time visualization of contrast propagation, as well as accurate calculation of the necessary dose, in proportion to the patient’s body weight, the protocol applied and the region examined. The introduction of contrast significantly increases the amount and quality of information received. In addition, most medical treatises have included computed tomography in the top 5 innovations in medicine of the last 50 years.
