Ultrasound Scan North Rocks
Ultrasound, also known as Sonography, is an imaging technique that uses sound waves to capture internal images of your body.
An ultrasound scan can be divided into two categories:
- Diagnostic Ultrasound: Diagnostic ultrasound is used to monitor various parts of your body, including the heart, liver, bladder, kidneys and blood vessels. Diagnostic ultrasound can facilitate the detection of cysts, gallstones or liver cancer.
- Pregnancy Ultrasound: In pregnant women, an ultrasound is used to monitor the growth of the baby. They are most commonly prescribed an ultrasound during their second trimester. An ultrasound is also helpful in checking the condition of female pelvic organs during pregnancy.
So, whichever category your ultrasound prescription falls into, our well-trained radiologists in North Rocks will conduct it with all due procedures. For high-quality, efficient ultrasound in North Rocks, visit us at Carescan.
CT Scan North Rocks
CT scan is a computed imaging technique that allows accurate and low-risk diagnosis of complex injuries and serious illnesses. It produces detailed 3D X-ray images of the human body and detects any irregularities or variations.
The most common body parts screened using a CT scan include the pelvis, chest, head and abdomen. Your physician might recommend a CT scan to diagnose physical ailments like bone disorders, blood clots, or tumours, detect an injury or plan for surgery.
Preparing for a CT scan in North Rocks
As your radiologist in North Rocks, we will guide you through the entire process. On appointment, you will receive instructions from us regarding the preparatory process.
In most CT scans, the patients are injected with a special dye called contrast material to enhance the images. If this procedure is part of your CT scan, you would have to fast before your CT scan. Also, you will be informed in advance regarding the fasting requirements.
So, if you are looking for an efficient and affordable CT scan in North Rocks, visit us at CareScan.
X-Ray Scan
X-ray is one of the most commonly used imaging techniques that produce internal images of the human body using x-ray beams.
X Rays are used for the diagnosis of injuries or diseases like:
- Bone conditions like fractures, arthritis or dislocations.
- Bowel blockages.
- Lung conditions like pneumonia or lung cancer.
- Tooth decay.
- Measuring bone density.
- Diagnosing kidney stones.
There might be many reasons why your physician recommended an X-ray. Whatever the reasons might be, we make sure to conduct it safely and precisely. So, for an X-ray in Bradia, book an appointment with us today.
Cortisone Injections North Rocks
Cortisone injections aid in the treatment of orthopaedic ailments such as:
- Arthritis
- Tendonitis
- Trigger finger
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Plantar fasciitis
- Bursitis
Physicians usually prescribe them to reduce inflammation and provide quick relief from severe pain in your knees, spine, ankle, shoulder or hip.
While cortisone injections are medically proven, they are not to be administered without proper care as they can lead to several side effects like sleep loss, allergies, etc. So, if you have been prescribed these shots and are now looking for a medical professional first to administer and then monitor cortisone injections in Bardia, you can consult us at CareScan.
Sports Imaging North Rocks
Sports imaging is a medical imaging technique that allows the prognosis and diagnosis of injuries incurred by sports personnel. When you engage with sports daily, be it professional or amateur, you are prone to injuries. While some have visible signs, others may remain hidden and worsen with time.

- Muscle, tendon or ligament injuries
- Stress fractures
- Arthritis
- Subacromial bursitis
- Plantar fasciitis
- Achilles tendinopathy
If you engage with sports imaging in Bardia regularly for both prognosis and diagnosis of injuries, get in touch with us at Carescan and open access to an economical and accurate imaging option.

An OPG scan is a dental imaging technique used to produce 3D X-Ray images of your lower face, including bones, teeth, and upper and lower jaws. It is most commonly used to detect oral conditions and recommend the right treatment procedure in case of pain or swelling.
An OPG scan is also a part of routine dental checkups to assess your overall oral health. An OPG scan is recommended at least once every 5 years to detect serious underlying health conditions like oral cancer.
So, if it has been more than 5 years since you got a OPG scan done or have been prescribed one by your dentist, reach out to us at Caresccan and book your appointment for an OPG scan in North Rocks today.
DEXA Scan in North Rocks
A DEXA or body scan measures your bone density and detects visible signs of gradual bone loss using spectral imaging. Your bones do get weaker with time, but they don’t necessarily result in health conditions like osteoporosis if treated at the right time. A DEXA scan is used to detect the risk of such conditions and make way for the prescription of adequate treatment.
As radiologists in North Rocks dedicated to your care, we recommend you get a DEXA scan done once you cross a certain age and feel your bones weakening. So, don’t take a risk and schedule a DEXA/body scan in North Rocks with us today.
