The MRI unit uses radio waves and a magnetic field to provide detailed images of particular parts of the body. MRI produces cross-sectional views of the body-patterned much like slices of bread. By collecting a series of such images, MRI can create a multi-dimensional view of your body which greatly enhances your doctor\u2019s ability to accurately diagnose medical conditions. After several such image \u201eslices\u201d have been collected, the information passes on to a computer. The computer then combines various segments of the pictures and creates views of the body from virtually any angle. MRI can be used to diagnose a wide variety of medical conditions which affect soft tissue structures and organs in the body.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT WILL I NEED TO REMEMBER BEFORE THE EXAM?<\/strong> If you wear clothing containing metal, for example zippers, snaps, underwire bras, or bra hooks, you may be asked to undress. Remove jewelry, dentures, bobby pins, makeup, credit cards, coins, mobile phone, watch, or any other metallic objects that might interfere with the magnetic field of the MRI machine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN MR SCAN?<\/strong> An MRI exam is completely painless. You won\u2019t feel a thing while you are in the magnet so you can simply relax and think about something pleasant. The technologist will ask you to lie down on a padded table so that you can be properly positioned for the exam. You will be moved into the magnet which is shaped like a donut. The technologist will leave the room but you will be in constant contact with him\/her through an intercom system. When the scanning begins you will hear intermittent thumping sounds. It is very important that you remain relaxed and do not move during the entire exam. Any movement during this time my blure your images and make it more difficult to interpret the images. The average MR scan takes 20 to 45 minutes to complete. During this time several dozen images may be obtained. All of these images assist us in making the most accurate diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/semmelweis.hu\/kepalkotas\/files\/2017\/01\/Declaration_for_magnetic_resonance_exaination.pdf\">Declaration_for_magnetic_resonance_(MRI) exaination<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>CT (computed tomography) Section<\/h2>\n<p>Chair: Kiss Gergely<\/p>\n<p>Our modern Philips Brilliance 16 CT equipment provides rutine and numerous special imaging studies. CT scans show detailed images of any part of the body, including the bones, fat, muscles, internal organs, and blood vessels. CT scans may be performed, for example, to help diagnose tumors in early stage, check for internal injuries, or investigate internal bleeding or intracranial stroke. 3D reconstructions contribute to the accurate diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p>Our Section offers conventional skull, neuro, chest, abdominal, pelvic imaging and\u00a0special CT studies as well.

Our Section offers angiography with the\u00a0possibility of extension to treatment in one procedure (e.g. angioplasty of arterial\u00a0stenoses with balloon or stent). Interventions are performed in local anesthesia (i.e.\u00a0no general anesthesia is necessary) which means that the procedure needs only a 1,5-2 mm puncture, and only 1 or 2 nights must be spent in the clinic postoperatively.\u00a0Therapeutic efficacy is similar to that of large operations (abdominal, chest, vessel\u00a0prothesis operations). Interventional procedure is preceded by a consultation where\u00a0representatives of various professions (vascular surgeon, internalist, angiologist,\u00a0oncologist, interventional radiologist) decide on the appropriate therapy of the\u00a0patient based on clinical data and imaging findings.<\/p>\n<p>Interventional imaging and therapeutic highlights include:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8211; interventional procedures of various peripheral vessel stenoses, occlusions<br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (e.g. arteries of the lower limb, renal arteries, subclavian artery)<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; embolisation, chemoembolisation of primary or metastatic liver tumors<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; embolisation of renal cancers (preoperative or non-operable <br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 tumor embolisation)<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; uterine fibroid embolisation<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; ultrasound-guided puncture, drainage, alcoholic sclerotisation <br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 of symptomatic liver cysts<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; angioplasty of dialysis fistula stenoses<br \/>\n\u00a0&#8211; implantation of venous ports (central venous cannulation) <br \/>\n\u00a0\u00a0 in oncologiy patients<\/p>\n<h2>Ultrasound Section<\/h2>\n<p>Chair: Gabriella Gy\u0151ri, MD<br \/>\n(+36-1-459-1500\/53159)<\/p>\n<p>Our ultrasound lab covers all vascular and non-vascular ultrasounds; studies at the\u00a0bedside for ICU patients are also available.
