Mammography has a long history and has been confirmed to be an effective tool for breast cancer screening/detection in many countries.

The breasts are compressed at different angles to produce x ray images.  Although it may be slightly uncomfortable, the whole process is very short.  It can help detect microcalcifications, architectural distortions or irregular densities.

Ultrasound is a high-frequency sound wave, much higher than the range that humans can hear. It can penetrate skin and soft tissues.

Ultrasound can create images of solid organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidney, uterus, ovaries, and breasts.

Breast imaging commonly includes ultrasound and mammography.  If your doctor identifies suspicious lesions, tissue sampling would be recommended for further investigation.

Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA):
The doctor uses a fine needle to directly puncture the breast to take cell samples, just likely taking blood.

Core Biopsy:
Core biopsy requires local anaesthetic and a tiny incision would.  It can extract more tissue and can distinguish whether cancer cells are invasive or not.

Dual Energy X-ray Absorber, referred to as DEXA, is the most accurate, quickest, and safest method for measuring bone density and diagnosing osteoporosis.

Computed Tomography (CT) is an X-ray imaging technique that combines X-ray images with advanced computer systems to generate high resolution 3D images of the internal structures of the body.  It is accurate, fast and painless.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses a powerful magnetic field combined with computer technology to generate detailed multiplanar images of your body.  It is excellent for looking at soft tissues like the brain, breasts and joints.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanning is a type of nuclear medicine scan.  A small quantity of radioactive isotope is required to detect metabolic abnormalities and help detect tumors or metastasis.

FibroTouch® releases controllable TE (transient elastography) shear wave to liver tissue and uses high frequency signal to track and collect data. Data collected is then compared with the statistical data stored in the database to determine the extend of fatty liver or liver fibrosis.

X-Ray can penetrate different tissues in the body to produce images, which are then recorded on special films.

Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is performed by injecting contrast into the uterus. X-Ray images are then taken to diagnose whether the fallopian tubes are patent or whether the uterus is structurally abnormal.
