MRI - Magnetic Resonance Imaging

MRI in Tunis, Centre Urbain Nord: magnetic resonance imaging that provides detailed images of organs and tissues, without X-rays or ionizing radiation.

20 to 45 minutes depending on the region explored and the protocol

Dual-energy CT scan

Latest-generation CT scanner using dual-energy technology for superior tissue differentiation, enabling more accurate diagnoses with an optimized radiation dose.

10 to 20 minutes (rapid acquisition, a few seconds per pass)

Conventional radiology - remote-controlled table

Radiological examination performed on a remote-controlled table allowing real-time dynamic explorations, particularly digestive transit studies and examinations with contrast opacification.

15 to 45 minutes depending on the type of exploration

Bone radiology - flat-panel bone and chest tables

High-resolution digital radiography using flat-panel detector technology for exploration of the skeleton and lungs, offering superior image quality with a minimal radiation dose.

5 to 15 minutes depending on the number of images required

Mammography

Specialized radiological examination of the breast allowing early breast cancer screening and the diagnosis of breast abnormalities, using a controlled compression technique for high-resolution images.

10 to 15 minutes

2D dental panoramic X-ray

Panoramic X-ray of the upper and lower dental arches in a single image, providing an overall view of the teeth, jaws and adjacent structures.

5 minutes (acquisition takes a few seconds)

Bone densitometry

Measurement of bone mineral density by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), the reference examination for the diagnosis of osteoporosis and the assessment of fracture risk.

10 to 15 minutes

General and specialized ultrasound

Imaging technique using ultrasound waves to explore organs and tissues in real time, without ionizing radiation, suitable for many diagnostic indications.

15 to 30 minutes depending on the type of ultrasound

Interventional radiology - embolization, drainage, radiofrequency

Minimally invasive image-guided therapeutic procedures, including embolization, drainage and radiofrequency thermal ablation, offering less demanding alternatives to conventional surgery.

45 minutes to 2 hours depending on the complexity of the procedure
