Benefits

Imaging enables a deeper look inside the body to see and recognise diseases before many other medical equipment or procedures can. This knowledge is used to inform the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Early detection enables diseases such as cancer, tuberculosis (TB) and heart diseases, to be treated early and improve the quality-of-life outcome.
