Main Activity of the Imaging institute

 

Diagnosis, treatment (invasive procedures) and follow up of patients according to physicians' referral. We perform plain radiography, ultrasonography, computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and invasive procedures under CT and MRI, such as catheterization of blood vessels and ducts with or without balloon dilation and stent insertion, control of bleeding, abscess and cyst punctures and invasive biopsies.

The Magnetic Resonance Imaging machine is one of the most sophisticated with modern technology, Ingenia 1.5T model, Philips Medical Company. The machine enables performing MRI of the bile ducts, gall bladder and the pancreas. (MRCP).

Interventional Radiology and Angiography Unit

The staff of the interventional radiology and angiography performs all types of interventions, such as stent installation for aortic aneurysm, angioplasty and stent application for peripheral artery stenosis, piccline for long term intravenous medications and oncology patients, puncture and aspiration of kidney cysts and gall bladder.

 

Computerized Tomography Unit

The computerized tomography made a big change in radiological diagnosis. It became the first diagnosing tool in multiple trauma patients after bleeding control. CT scan can be done for almost all the organs of the body including cerebral angiography, cardiac CT, CT enterography, CT urography and more.

One of the unique uses of the CT scanner is CT sialography of the parotid gland and CT guided liver metastases ablation.                     

 

Quality control and fellowships

 

• The medical staff of the radiology department conduct weekly sessions with the medical staff from the different departments where they discuss the results of the radiological examinations, the possible diagnosis and the need for further investigations.
• The senior medical staff conduct weekly educational sessions with the junior physicians to prepare them for the final examinations in radiology.
• The senior physicians conduct periodical sessions with the staff of the risk management unit where they discuss serious and non-serious events that occurred in the radiology department.

Academic Activity

Being thus, medical students, from Israel and abroad, spend period of time in the radiology department as a part of their medical education.
• The medical staff takes part in the educational program of the nursing school at the Barzilai medical center.
