This unit examins the functional characteristics of the body organs by injection atomic material, and then imaging the part to be examined after a period of 10 minutes to 3 hours for complete absorption of the atomic material. We also offer POSITRONIC Emission Tomogrophy CT. The most uptodate in equipment diagnosis.
MegaScan is the first specialized institution representing the private sector since 1966. It works in the field of diagnostic and radiographic imaging. It was established by the pioneer of diagnostic radiation in Egypt, Prof. Dr. Mohamed Hafez Sherif, Professor of Diagnostic Radiology and Chairman of the Egyptian Radiation Association.
MEGA SCAN is the first to provide multiple radiology scans for Egyptians and the Middle East region as a whole.
• In 1975, the introduction of the first CT scan in Egypt in the branch of Bab al-Luq – Downtown,
• 1995, introduced the first Magnetic Resonance system in Egypt
• In 2006, Mohandseen branch was opened with the latest open magnetic resonance imaging system
• 2016 Opening of Sheikh Zayed Branch with the latest equipment in Egypt

* Preparation of computerized CT scan on the abdomen and pelvis
1 - abstain from foods that make up the gases the day before the examination such as: vegetables, fruit, soft water, dairy products and eggs.
2 - Allow to eat: pasta, rice, chicken or boiled meat.
3. Gastrografen is taken with 6 cups water as follows:
The initial dose is 12 hours before the test.
The second dose is 6 hours before the test.
The third dose is 3 hours before the test.
4 - Fasting 6 hours before the examination.
5 - Attendance before the date of examination in half an hour.
6 - Bring the previous tests and radiation, if any.
The injected dose in the patient does not pose a risk to the patient's health under normal circumstances. However, there are precautions to be avoided, as in the case of pregnant women, where radioactive material may be a real danger to the fetus, especially in the first months of pregnancy. It should be noted that the patient is the same source of radiation, and this may continue for several hours after the end of the examination (sometimes for 24 hours), in these cases advised not to contact the patient for long periods during those hours, so as not to contact relatives without radiation unnecessarily.
