International Scanning Centres

Scanning Centres

As well as the usual MRI, CT and PET scans some of these centres offer specialised scans giving non-invasive diagnosis of a range of conditions, some of which have only recently become available. This is a new feature for MHL and we shall be building our representation and extending the range of centres and scans offered over the coming months.

Private medical centres

Whether you are concerned about an existing problem or want a scan as a precautionary measure there are now many private scanning centres available which will offer this service.

We currently have information on scanning and diagnostic centres in the following countries

For information on the difference between MRI, CT and PET scans visit the Types of Scan page

Whether you need a referral or not will depend partly upon the type of scan and partly upon medical practice or law in your country, but the centres can advise on this.

MHL promotes leading specialist medical centres around the world and these offer three main services to international patients:

Diagnosis

Second opinions

Treatment

For any of these you are likely to need scans in digital format. CyberKnife® centres in particular require very recent scans (within the last three weeks for cancer) to make their assessments.

Centres may ask you to post them your scans on a CD and many now allow direct upload by internet.

Europe

Middle East and Asia

All correspondence will be between the patient (or doctor) and the individual centre and MHL will not be a party to this. We recommend that patients should seek qualified medical advice before attending for diagnosis or treatment.
