MRI Imaging

The SIGNA Voyager – State of the Art 1.5T wide-bore MRI, provides the most comfortable, swift and quiet experience for users.

GE’s proprietary SilentScan technology dramatically reduces scanning noise and includes a Silent Neuro Package with Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI), which delivers a completely silent neuro exam, and expanded spine and musculoskeletal imaging.

The wide and low Comfort Plus table and open 70cm design allows patients to rest freely while affording easy access and a comfortable scanning experience.

Our MRI equipment can provide the following services:

Brain MRI Scan

Most radiologists agree that MRI is the best diagnostic tool for evaluation of the Central Nervous System (brain and spinal tumor). In patients suffering from stroke, Diffusion Weighted Scan permits almost immediate visualization of the part of the brain that is not getting adequate blood flow, and allows faster treatment to prevent permanent cell death.

Spine MRI Scan

Spine MRI provides detailed pictures of hard-to-view areas of the spine, including the spinal canal, bony segments, and soft tissue. It can pinpoint problems and show up the exact location of tumors in the spine, spinal cord, or disks. It is an important diagnostic tool for patients suffering from pain or numbness in the back or in the limbs.

MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiography)

MRA provides a noninvasive method to study blood vessels, such as the carotid, pulmonary, peripheral and renal arteries and the aorta. The test minimizes the needs of invasive procedures such as Conventional Angiogram and avoids older radiological techniques that require puncturing major vascular structures.

Whole Body Imaging

• For Asymptomic Patients
• 2 Hours Examination Time 

Other High Resolution Regional MRI Scans

• Musculoskeletal and Joint imaging
• Examination of muscles and joints in all angles allow better understanding of the complicated soft tissue structure. MRI provides vital information for orthopedic surgeons, and is an indispensible tool in the management of sports injuries.
• MR Cholangiogram
• MRI allows imaging of the entire biliary system. The test is completely non-invasive, and is most useful to investigate the cause of obstruction to the biliary tract.
• Abdominal and Chest
• Breath-hold Abdominal and Thoracic Scans allow dynamic study of the abdominal and thoracic structures.

Entrust your health to the best neurosurgery center in Hong Kong

 
The Hong Kong Minimally Invasive Brain & Spine Neurosurgery Centre has top specialists who treat complex neurological conditions caused by stroke, tumors, hernias, injuries, and traumas. Each day our skilled neurosurgeons perform dozens of complicated surgeries, saving people’s lives and helping them to restore their health. Thousands of patients go through the doors of our neurosurgery center every year which gives our excellent team of surgeons unparalleled expertise and ability to guarantee exceptional results to all of the patients.

• Precision
  
  • Minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) are performed using highly innovative equipment and advanced robotic technologies that provide better precision, allowing to remove the tumor or blockage without harming the surrounding healthy tissues.

• Affordable
  • With MIS, you need fewer doctor appointments, anesthesia, and medication as well as a shorter hospital stay. This way, you can afford the services of the best neurosurgeons in Hong Kong at a reasonable price.

• Smaller incisions
  • Thanks to high-precision instruments, neurosurgeons can make the tiniest incisions that are typically less than an inch. In open surgery, a standard incision is 3-8 inches long.

• Quicker recovery
  • People often put off a necessary surgery because they don’t have time to deal with recovery. With MIS, the recuperation time can be as little as a few days, comparing to open surgery that takes anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks to recover from. Our neurosurgery center patients are usually dismissed on the same day of the procedure, giving them a convenient option of home recovery.

• Lesser risk of complications
  • Tiny incisions matter a lot. They lead to much smaller blood loss and minimize the risk of infection and injuries to surrounding tissues.

• Less scarring
  • Traditional open surgeries often leave huge unsightly scars that make patients feel self-conscious about their appearance. MIS requires smaller incisions, which means scars are also much smaller.

Because the signs of stroke are traceable, if symptoms are identified through risk screening, suitable treatments can be received to reduce the risk of a stroke. HKBSSP offers the following prevention treatments: Medical Therapy: Drug for blood pressure control & cholesterolaemia, glucose control for diabetes, anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation, and antiplatelet for previous stroke patients.

Prophylactic Neurosurgery Percutaneous Cerebral Intervention (Neuro-PCI) revascularisation: this minimally invasive procedure not only can treat acute strokes effectively, it can also treat structural abnormalities such as cervical arteries stenosis, intracranial vascular anomaly, intracranial vascular stenosis, and cerebral aneurysm or arteriovenous malformation, to minimise the risk of a stroke.
