The building’s bottom floor has the Siemens Smile spiral scanner, which can be used for daily scans of the brain, spinal cord, spinal column, and, if prescribed by a physician, computed tomography of the lungs, upper abdomen, and lower abdomen.

The examinations are performed with the application of non-ionic contrast agents. The minimum section thickness is 1 mm. in 0.75 sec.

The following examinations can be performed on the scanner (by body part):

• Lungs and thorax (chest): CT scanner can detect infections, tumors, dilation of blood vessels (aneurysms), metastases.
• Abdomen (abdominal cavity): CT scanner can detect pathological fluid collections, tumors, as well as some diseases of the urinary tract.
• Liver: CT scan can detect liver tumors, liver hemorrhages, and minor liver diseases
• Pancreas: CT is an extremely high-quality device when it comes to detecting tumors and inflammation of the pancreas (acute and chronic pancreatitis).
• Gallbladder and bile ducts: CT is used to detect the location and cause of a block in the flow of bile.
• Adrenal glands: CT is able to detect tumors of the adrenal glands
• Spleen: CT is used to evaluate injuries to the spleen.
• Spine and spinal column: CT can detect tumors, injuries, degenerative changes, deformities, herniated discs, and other spinal problems.
• Brain: Tumor tissue, edematous brain tissue, brain abscess capsule, hematoma, infarction, and calcifications can be distinguished.
