The Radiology Department of Poseidoneio Medical Diagnosic Center uses a state-of-the-art digital radiology system which offers low radiation exposure and high-definition imaging. This technology improves diagnostic accuracy while minimizing the risks associated with radiation.<\/p>

Also it is equipped with a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) for the storage and retrieval of digital radiographs and ultrasound images. This system allows for efficient management of digital images and the ability to print older digital records when needed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      • Elastography is a\u00a0simple<\/strong>,\u00a0quick<\/strong>,\u00a0non-invasive<\/strong>\u00a0method with a\u00a0distinguishing<\/strong>\u00a0between benign<\/strong>\u00a0and malignant tissues.<\/strong>The principle behind elastography is that benign tissue is generally more elastic than malignant tissue. This difference in elasticity is measured and visualized through the ultrasound, allowing for better differentiation between benign and malignant lesions.<\/p>

        Elastography significantly reduces the need for invasive procedures, such as biopsies, by providing a\u00a0reliable<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0accurate<\/strong>\u00a0diagnosis.\u00a0Applications:<\/strong><\/p>
