Diagnostic services at Welbeck
Our lab partner, The Doctor’s Laboratory (TDL), provides Welbeck with tech-driven analysis of blood, stool, and urine samples with highly efficient turnaround times. We use the latest available AI and digital technologies across our various imaging modalities, including FerriScan, Brainkey, Amra Visceral Fat, SpringBok, Caristo Cari-Heart, HeartFlow and Cari-Plaque, to provide the most accurate results and diagnoses possible. With access to the latest iterative technology, we’re able to reduce radiation and contrast (DYE) doses, ensuring the highest quality diagnostic imaging at the lowest practical doses. We understand that having an MRI can be daunting, which is why we’re also working continuously to provide the best imaging with the least amount of time in the scanner. Where recommended, we also support image-guided procedures such as CT-guided spinal injections, colonic transit study, and CT colonoscopy.
