25.01.2022 Dementia affects close to half a million Australians. This number is set double in the next 25 years. Many Australians will start experiencing the impact of dementia amongst their own family and friends in the coming years. Diagnosis is usually made by taking a thorough patient history, laboratory tests and physical examination. Brain scanning techniques such as CT or MRI scans can be used in certain cases to look for causes and monitoring changes in the brain. #dementiaactionweek #worldalzheimersday #brainscan #ctscan #mriscan

17.01.2022 Today is World Osteoporosis Day. Approximately 924000 Australians (3.8% of the population) have reported low bone mineral density. Osteoporosis makes people's bones more fragile and easily injured by a simple fall, movement, even a sneeze. Synergy Radiology conducts bone density scans, the gold-standard for measuring bone density and diagnosing osteopenia and osteoporosis. This simple scan measures the density of your bones, usually at the hip and spine, and it takes approximately 10-15 minutes.
