The patient will be asked to lie on a padded table, with the X-ray generator positioned below the patient and the imaging device positioned below.
It’s important that the patient stays very still and may also be asked to hold their breath for a few seconds during the time which the image is obtained.

(if another scheduled patient has cancelled we may consider taking in walk-in patients. Do check in with our reception and our billing executives at our centre.)
We may have to reschedule or cancel appointments at times because of reasons beyond our control – short-supply or no supply of the isotope used for the scan from an external source, machine breakdowns, etc.
As we have no control over this situation, Medcare Diagnostics would not be held liable for any harm or loss arising out of such cancellations.
