3D/4D Ultrasound 

Broadway Radiology now offers 3D and 4D ultrasound scanning.  See the Information Sheets tab for more information.

CT Colonography

Broadway Radiology nows performs CT Colonography. 

Sometimes called a ‘”virtual colonoscopy”, this is a new minimally-invasive test which may reduce the need for more invasive traditional colonoscopy. 

The main reason for performing CT Colonography is to screen for polyps and other lesions in the colon.  Some polyps may grow and turn into cancers and the goal is to detect these in their early stages before cancer has a chance to develop.

Image Access for Referrers

Palmerston North X-Ray now allows secure access to it's image database for approved referring practitioners.  See the Referrer Information tab for more details.
