Our Types of Exams
At the Woluwe Radiology Center, we offer state-of-the-art equipment to meet all your imaging needs.
X-ray
An X-ray is a quick and painless test that uses low-dose X-rays.
It allows for a precise analysis of bones, joints, and certain structures in the chest.
It helps easily detect fractures, wear and tear, or abnormalities.
Ultrasound
An ultrasound is a painless imaging test that uses ultrasound waves; it does not involve X-rays.
It allows for real-time visualization of many organs and tissues.
The duration varies depending on the area being examined.
Mammography
Mammography is the gold standard for breast imaging.
It uses low-dose X-rays and requires brief compression to ensure a high-quality image.
Cone Beam CT (CBCT)
CBCT is a high-resolution, low-dose X-ray 3D imaging technique suitable for detailed analysis of bone structures.
Arthro CBCT
Arthro-CBCT combines an intra-articular injection of iodinated contrast medium followed by a CBCT scan.
It allows for a detailed analysis of joint structures.
Image-Guided Injection
Ultrasound- or X-ray-guided injections involve injecting medication directly into a joint or painful area.
Imaging guidance ensures optimal precision.
Elastography
Elastography is a complementary technique to ultrasound that measures tissue stiffness.
Bone Densitometry
This test measures your bone mineral density to diagnose osteoporosis. It is essential for assessing your risk of fracture and allows for the implementation of an appropriate preventive care plan and monitoring of changes in your bone mass.
