Mobile imaging is the provision of diagnostic imaging services, such as MRI and CT scanning, through a bank of transportable imaging equipment units. These mobile imaging units move between our hospitals to ensure you receive local, convenient and comfortable care whilst benefiting from the latest technology and equipment that is at the forefront of diagnostic imaging.
Imaging is a range of tests that create pictures of parts of your body. These images help screen for possible health conditions before symptoms appear, diagnose symptoms, and monitor health conditions or their treatment.
There are many different types of imaging and each imaging type uses a different technology to create an image. Common types of imaging include:
A mobile MRI scanner is a self-contained unit with an MRI scanner, control room, and often a patient changing room that can be transported between multiple hospital locations.
At Ramsay, our fleet of modern 1.5 Tesla MRI mobile scanners offer innovative technology with leading applications and patient comfort in a mobile environment. Our mobile MRI scanners move between the Ramsay hospitals to offer local MRI scanning for our patients.
A mobile CT scanner is a computed tomography system on wheels. The CT scanner is inside a specially designed trailer that can move between our hospital sites.
At Ramsay, our Siemens 64 slice mobile CT scanner offers high-definition image quality with a low dose. It is designed for patient safety and comfort including a spacious changing room, a relaxed environment, and quick scanning.
At Ramsay Health Care, our diagnostic imaging services provide fast, local and convenient access to investigations.
Our Ramsay hospitals offer a comprehensive range of imaging services using the latest technology that are staffed by highly experienced and skilled radiographers and consultant radiologists.
