All HealthVision Xi staff are qualified, experienced and accredited sonographers, equipped with state of the art portable ultrasound scanners. We offer a prompt reporting service and access to a secure database containing useful statistical and audit data.
HealthVision Xi can provide customised services to meet client needs as well as training of medical personnel to perform ultrasound screening examinations such as Carotid IMT assessment.
Our core service is cardiovascular screening including ECG, Carotid IMT, Carotid Duplex, Aneurysm Scans and Echocardiography which we offer direct to self paying patients. We typically make use of consulting or treatment rooms at GP practices. This arrangement is mutually beneficial, providing added revenue to the practice along with an enhanced service to patients. Additional benefits to the practice include earlier detection of potentially life-threatening diseases resulting in improved patient outcomes and significant cost savings.
