Specialist Center

Medical Imaging Center
The newest addition of a 64-slice CT, gives fast & clear 3D imaging for accurate detection of hidden problems of internal organs. The newest total body & breast MRI, enable our doctors to make early diagnosis of difficult diseases.


Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment Center
Our high-tech single & multi-person chambers for hyperbaric oxygen therapy, with specially designed respirators, empower our doctors to treat diseases related to oxygen deficiency or carbon monoxide poisoning, with outstanding efficiency.

Definition of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy:
The patient breathes 100% oxygen intermittently while the pressure of the treatment chamber is increased to greater than one atmosphere absolute (atm abs). Current information indicates that pressurization should be at least 1.4 atm abs. This may occur in a single person chamber (monoplace) or multiplace chamber (may hold 2 or more people). Breathing 100% oxygen at 1 atm abs or exposing isolated parts of the body to 100% oxygen does not constitute HBO2 therapy.

Approved Indications (Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society):
The following indications are approved uses of hyperbaric oxygen therapy as defined by the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Committee.
1. Air or Gas Embolism
2. Carbon Monoxide Poisoning, Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Complicated by Cyanide Poisoning
3. Clostridal Myositis and Myonecrosis (Gas Gangrene)
4. Crush Injury, Compartment Syndrome, and other Acute
Traumatic Ischemias
5. Decompression Sickness
6. Enhancement of Healing in Selected Problem Wounds
7. Exceptional Blood Loss (Anemia)
8. Intracranial Abscess
9. Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections
10. Osteomyelitis (Refractory)
11. Delayed Radiation Injury (Soft Tissue and Bony Necrosis)
12. Skin Grafts & Flaps (Compromised)
13. Thermal Burns


Radiation Therapy Center
Our department is equipped with the most advanced image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) system, which is capable of providing real-time 3D CT images, helps to target tumors with sub-millimeter accuracy while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. With this sophisticated machine, we can deliver more precise and delicate treatments to mark a new generation of cancer care.


Nuclear Medicine Center
The current nuclear medicine can discover disease processes early --usually before symptoms appear--providing diagnostic information in neurology, cardiology, hemaoncology, surgery, orthopedic surgery, pulmonary medicine, gastroenterology, nephro-urology, endocrinology, pediatrics, infectious disease and other medical conditions.


Heart Center
The Heart Center is composed the departments of cardiology, catheterization room and cardiovascular function lab.

Our services include evaluation and treatment of coronary heart disease, hypertension, congestive heart failure, valvular disease, arrhythmia, dyslipidemia, congenital heart disease, and aortic diseases.

Cardiac Catheterization Room is equipped with PHILIPS ALLURA XPER FD10/10 which offers patients the examination of coronary artery disease. We also have temporary pacemakers, which can be implanted in case of emergency. Additionally, Cardiac Catheterization Room is equipped with one intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP).

There are 6 attending physicians in the department of cardiac and 4 of whom are qualified instructors of adult cardiology. Other crews include 2 nursing specialists, 3 catheterization lab. members, 4 members of cardiovascular function lab.

Our team provides 24-hour primary coronary intervention for patients of acute myocardial infarction.

*Ultrasound Room
