Medical Imaging Made Easy

 

In all areas of life the unknown feels more frightening than the known. When you or your loved ones are to experience some kind of medical investigation, we believe the same is true. That is why Amersham Health, a pioneer in the development and production of in-vivo imaging enhancing agents for medical diagnosis, have made this site on the web. We want you to become a better informed receiver of health care services.

Medical imaging is performed through four main modalities: X-ray, Magnetic Resonance Tomography, Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound. The modalities are based on very different principles.

We hope this site contributes to an informed and better experience when you or someone close to you are about to undergo a medical imaging examination.
