Oncology

Oncology imaging and interventional oncology procedures are performed by our medical specialists to assist with cancer diagnosis, including evaluating the efficacy of oncology treatment plans. At Envision MI, we offer a range of modalities to offer the best diagnostic oncology support.

CT scans can be used to diagnose cancer and plan surgeries or radiation therapy treatments, as well as monitoring patient responses to cancer treatment.  We use the latest low dose CT Scanner to minimise the radiation dose to patients. MRI is used to visualise internal structures of the body in high detail, with no radiation exposure. Ultrasound is a scan that uses high frequency sound waves to show internal body structures. CT , MRI and Ultrasound can also be used to guide interventional procedures, such as biopsies to ensure correct placement of needles with minimal intervention.

Nuclear Medicine plays an important role in cancer diagnosis. At Envision, we use a hybrid scanner to conduct nuclear medicine and low-dose CT scans at the same time. This allows our radiologists to assess both structural and functional information in one study, greatly increasing accuracy and reducing scan times.

Our new PET-CT facility offers powerful diagnostic examination which combines functional and  structural information in one examination to help doctors visualise the function of tissues and organs and gain information on the position and increased activity of cancer cells.

At Envision Medical Imaging, our highly skilled medical imaging team includes experienced Radiologists and Nuclear Medicine physicians and technologists to ensure the best standard of diagnostic care for oncology patients.

Envision has trained staff that can access and de-access Infusaports. If you would like your Infusaport accessed for your contrast enhancing scan, please notify a staff member once you arrive to your appointment. Please note: This service is only offered on weekdays only and is dependent on the availability of a trained staff member.

Our practice is equipped with state-of-the-art digital equipment including 1.5T MRI, 3T MRI, the revolutionary Force multislice CT with cardiac capability, ultrasound, and the latest in filmless digital reporting and image archiving and distribution to ensure the highest level of diagnostic service for oncology patients.
