The Diagnostic
Center by
Images at Hospital Herrera Llerandi is characterized by the
continuous innovation on state of the art diagnosis equipment.
The Department’s futuristic vision is to provide the highest
quality images, with the highest safety standards for patients,
as well as to efficiently provide diagnosis studies interpreted
by Radiology specialists, many of whom have had studies at
prestigious USA
universities and hospitals. The Radiology
Department provides service 24 hours a day - 365 days.
Tomography Multidetector
The 64
slices tomography multidetector is able to take hundreds of
images in only 350 milliseconds, which makes it more than
thousand times faster than the first generation tomography
detectors still working in many hospitals. Thanks to this, the
tomography multidetector represents today the diagnosis
alternative to choose to get high resolution studies which may
make it easier for doctors to make decisions faster in the best
interest of the patient’s well being. The 64 slices tomography
multidetector produces then these studies with minimal radiation,
which is particularly important to consider with Pediatrics
patients.
By
using this tomography detector, we can perform very specialized
studies at very reasonable prices, such as:
-
Brain
Angiography with perfusion for early stroke diagnosis.
-
Carotids Angiography to diagnose plaque obstructions.
-
Angiography of any organ from the human body (with
tridimensional high definition images impossible to get from
traditional tomography detectors).
-
Heart
Tomography (coronaries study, in an non-invasive way, with
no sedation needed.
-
Virtual
Colonoscopy (it is performed non-invasively and without
sedation in the colon, for early diagnosis of cancer).
-
Recommended methodology by the American Cancer Society.
-
Enterography (Multidetector Tomography of the small
intestine to investigate benign or cancerous tumors,
bleeding places, Crohn disease, obstructive processes, etc.)
-
Tomography on multi traumatized patients. Faster and more
exact results to diagnose internal bleedings and fractures
that affect mainly the cranium and the spine.
-
Tomographies of the muscle-skeleton system (vertebral discs
hernias, destructive bone lesions, narrowness of the spinal
canal, etc.)
-
Urography without intravenous contrast medium for a fast and
precise diagnosis of micro stones in the urinary system (kidneys,
ureters and bladder).
-
High
resolution Tomography of maxillaries (upper and lower) for
studies prior to the placement of dental implants.
Mammography with digital system

We have
technology capable of saving lives, since the digitalized high
resolution images obtained here, facilitate an early diagnosis
of breast cancer, consequently reducing the mortality rate from
this illness.
High
resolution real time Ultrasound with color Doppler
Our
equipment has multiple transducers which allow Ultrasound
studies for the heart and abdomen, for gynecology-obstetrics and
blood vessels (arteries and veins), and for other body regions,
in adults and children.
X-Rays
There
are X-Ray equipment at various places in the Hospital, including
the Emergency area. We produce conventional fluoroscopy studies,
as well as portable studies. Portable X-Ray equipment with a C
arm is used in the operating rooms for traumatology and surgery
procedures. This way, we guarantee the best care for our
patients.
