Radiology & Diagnostic Imaging

Sharjah’s Trusted Imaging Center for Precise Diagnosis

What Is Radiology & Diagnostic Imaging?

Radiology and diagnostic imaging involve using advanced technologies to capture images of the inside of the body. These medical images help doctors identify, diagnose, and monitor a wide range of conditions — from broken bones and infections to tumors, organ damage, and chronic diseases. Radiologists are specialized physicians trained to interpret these images and guide accurate treatment plans.

What Is the Purpose of Diagnostic Imaging?

Diagnostic imaging plays a crucial role in modern healthcare. It allows doctors to detect and monitor diseases or injuries non-invasively — helping pinpoint problems early, evaluate treatment effectiveness, and avoid unnecessary procedures. The clearer the image, the more precise the diagnosis.

Our Radiology & Diagnostic Imaging Services

At Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Hospital, we offer a comprehensive range of imaging services using the latest technology and protocols to ensure accuracy, safety, and patient comfort. Every scan is reviewed by board-certified radiologists and coordinated closely with your care team. 

  • X-ray
    A quick, painless imaging technique that uses low-dose radiation to capture images of bones and internal organs. 
  • MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
    Uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of soft tissues, such as the brain, spine, joints, and internal organs.
  • CT Scan (Computed Tomography)
    Combines X-ray images taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional views of the body, useful for detecting trauma, tumors, and vascular issues.
  • Ultrasound
    A real-time, radiation-free imaging method using sound waves to assess organs, blood flow, and fetal development.
  • Mammography
    A specialized X-ray used to screen for and detect breast cancer in its early stages.
  • DEXA Scan (Bone Densitometry)
    Measures bone mineral density to evaluate risk for osteoporosis and monitor bone health over time. 
  • Fluoroscopy
    A live imaging technique that uses contrast dye and X-rays to assess movement within the digestive tract, joints, or blood vessels.
  • Nuclear Medicine Scan
    Involves injecting a small amount of radioactive material to visualize the function of organs like the thyroid, heart, or bones. 
  • Interventional Radiology
    Minimally invasive, image-guided procedures used to diagnose and treat conditions without traditional surgery (e.g., biopsies, drainages, or vascular procedures).
