Medical technology
Advanced Diagnostics
- MRI & MRA Brain MRI machine creates a magnetic field and spread radio waves that work to map the scanned part of the body. It helps the radiologist to see the body part such as brain, brain’s vein and brain’s tumor being scanned more thoroughly.
- Carotid Duplex ultrasonography – We provide wide range of diagnosis such as CCA (Intima Media Thickness), Calcified plaque, blood circulation system. This ultrasonography is a painless test that combines 2 ultrasound types to look for blockages in your carotid arteries causing symptoms leads to paralysis.
- MoCA Cognitive Assessment
- CT Scan
- Electroencephalography (EEG)
- Nerve conduction studies (NCS)
- Electromyography (EMG)
Advanced Treatments
- Surgical innovations with special equipment
- Microscopic surgery is a surgical camera with high magnification with a beam that can be sent down into a deeper point, thereby providing higher surgical detail. This allows the surgeon to clearly see the details, nerves and pathology that need to be corrected. It is very safe and effectively reduce the rate of injury to the surrounding small vital organs.
- Endoscopic surgery - A camera that looks like a stick inserted into the brain area that needs surgery is high resolution, making it possible to see in the depth clearly. This equipment is suitable for some surgery, such as surgery to drain the brain and surgery for tumors in the pituitary gland.
- Intravascular / Embolization coiling of aneurysms (AVMs) is used for people with ruptured brain aneurysms. The principle of treatment is to cut off the blood flow from entering the cerebral aneurysm cushion by the following principles:
- Surgery to clamp a brain aneurysm (Microsurgical Clipping)
- Inserting the wire into the blood vessel and releasing the coil into the cerebral aneurysm.
- Intravascular Thrombectomy of Cerebral vessels is a treatment for ischemic and thromboembolic strokes by inserting a catheter through the aorta with a coil in the groin until the blockage occurs. Then remove the clogged blood clot from the cerebral artery to open the vascular hole without major surgery.
- Bypass of cerebral vessels is used for people with cerebral ischemia who need surgery to remove a blood clot from the brain with cerebrovascular bypass surgery. In some cases, this surgery is necessary to improve blood flow to the brain.
- New innovations in brain and nervous system rejuvenation
- Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, TMS uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of paralysis, Peripheral Neuropathy, Migraine. It can stimulate over the left and right sides of the brain to stimulate blood flow in the brain. Stimulate nerves connecting your brain and spinal cord to the muscles giving you movement and feeling.
- Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS) is a non-invasive, painless brain stimulation treatment that uses direct electrical currents to stimulate specific parts of the brain for 20-30 minutes to provide the proper treatment for your brain.
