AV Scan Diagnostics offers High-Resolution CT (HRCT) of the chest on the Fujifilm Supria CT scanner, with iterative reconstruction to help keep the radiation dose low. All chest CT scans are reported by our panel of sub-specialty radiologists, and our team includes a radiologist with Chest Radiology Fellowship training.
HRCT of the chest provides detailed visualisation of the lungs, airways, pleura, mediastinum and chest wall — essential for diagnosing interstitial lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis, COVID-19 sequelae, lung nodules and many other conditions.
Chest X-Ray is a fast, low-dose overview — useful for initial assessment but can miss subtle lung changes.
Plain CT Chest gives cross-sectional images of all chest structures including mediastinum and lymph nodes.
HRCT uses thin-slice high-resolution images specifically targeting the lung parenchyma and airways — the most sensitive test for interstitial lung disease and fibrosis.
The Fujifilm Supria uses iterative reconstruction (Fujifilm Intelli IP) to help produce diagnostic-quality images at a low radiation dose, with settings adjusted to each patient's body size — following the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle. All CT studies at AV Scan are processed through Fujifilm's Synapse 3D platform for 3D reconstruction and quantitative analysis.
