X-ray Center

The X-ray Center at Vichaivej International Hospital (Yaek Fai Chai) offers a range of diagnostic imaging services utilizing X-rays to provide detailed images of various parts of the body. This enables physicians to effectively diagnose and evaluate medical conditions. With advancements in technology, the center also utilizes digital systems for enhanced imaging and diagnosis. 

The X-ray services provided at the center include: 

• General Radiography: This service uses X-rays to create fixed or 2D images of the internal structures of the body. X-rays are emitted, and the resulting patterns are transmitted to a detector, creating images that can be evaluated by healthcare professionals. 

• Fluoroscopy: Fluoroscopy involves the use of X-ray beams in conjunction with a video screen. This real-time imaging technique allows physicians to visualize the movement of body parts or instruments as they pass through the body. 

• CT Scan (Computed Tomography): CT scanning is a diagnostic imaging test that creates detailed cross-sectional images of internal organs. These images can be reformatted in multiple planes and even generate three-dimensional images for accurate evaluation. CT scans are commonly used for detecting various cancers and are fast, painless, noninvasive, and highly accurate. 

The X-ray Center offers a range of diagnostic services, including: 

• CT Brain: A CT scan specifically focused on imaging the brain to detect any abnormalities or conditions. 

• CT Chest: A CT scan of the chest area to evaluate the lungs, heart, and surrounding structures. 

• CT Upper Abdomen: A CT scan to assess the upper abdominal region, including organs such as the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. 

• CT Lower Abdomen: A CT scan to examine the lower abdominal area, including the pelvic organs and structures. 

• Ultrasound: This imaging technique uses sound waves to create images of organs, tissues, and blood flow. Ultrasound is commonly used for various diagnostic purposes, including evaluating pregnancies, abdominal organs, and the cardiovascular system. 

• Mammogram: Mammography is a specific type of X-ray imaging used for breast screening and early detection of breast cancer. 

• Panoramic X-ray: A specialized X-ray technique that captures a wide-angle view of the entire dental arch, providing an overview of the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. 

• Upper GI (Gastrointestinal) X-ray: This diagnostic test uses contrast material to visualize the upper gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and small intestine. 

• Barium Enema (B.E): A procedure that uses contrast material and X-rays to evaluate the colon and rectum. 

• Intravenous Pyelography (I.V.P.): A diagnostic procedure that involves injecting contrast material into a vein to visualize the kidneys, bladder, and urinary tract. 

• Myelography: This procedure uses contrast material and X-rays to examine the spinal cord and nerve roots. 

• Venography (Leg): A diagnostic procedure that visualizes the veins in the legs using contrast material and X-rays. 

• Hysterosalpingography (HSG): This procedure uses contrast material and X-rays to evaluate the uterus and fallopian tubes. 

• Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG): A diagnostic test that involves filling the bladder with contrast material and X-rays to evaluate the structure and function of the bladder and urethra during urination. 

We utilize advanced imaging techniques and technologies to provide accurate and comprehensive diagnostic services for patients. The center's focus is on delivering high-quality imaging and aiding in the diagnosis and management of various medical conditions. 

The X-ray Center at Vichaivej International Hospital offers advanced diagnostic imaging services, including general radiography, fluoroscopy, CT scans, ultrasound, mammography, panoramic X-rays, and specialized procedures like barium enema and venography, utilizing cutting-edge technology for precise diagnosis.
