Radiotherapy
Radiotherapy is also known as radiation therapy. Radiotherapy is a medical treatment using radioactive or ionizing rays. This treatment aims to destroy malignant cells (cancer). Along with other treatment techniques such as surgery and chemotherapy, radiotherapy can fight cancer. Radiation therapy for cancer is usually done externally with appropriate equipment or internally by introducing radioactive sources into the body.
Radiation is sometimes used to treat benign growths and other diseases.

Interventional radiology
Interventional radiology are minor procedures that are performed under image guidance by the radiologist.
examination
Bone densitometry (DEXA)
A bone densitometry is a measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) at various places such as the hip and spine and possibly the wrist or other bones. In this examination, we use a beam of very low intensity X-rays to make images of the bones. This allows us to measure the density of the bone and determine the extent of any osteoporosis.
examination
CT scan Cone Beam
A CT scan with the Cone Beam takes images of the sinuses, lower or upper jaw or face at a very low radiation dose.
examination
Cephalogramme
Using a special RX (Cone Beam) device that rotates around the face, X-rays are taken of the structures of the head. On this image, we can evaluate facial growth and development.
examination
CT examination chest (thorax)
In a CT (computer tomography) scan, we form an image of the chest using X-rays. The scanner makes sections of the chest (also called thorax).
