River Radiology has a Newtom 5G Cone Beam CT, a specialist CT machine. Like all CTs it uses x-rays but an examination on the Cone Beam CT uses only 10% of the radiation delivered by a routine Fan Beam CT!

Our Cone Beam differs from the more commonly available dental machines; patients lie down on a moving table to be scanned, this means we can scan elbows, wrists and hands, knees, ankles and feet, and even the cervical spine (neck). The Cone Beam also gets wonderful high resolution scans of face, sinuses, teeth and temporal bones (inner ear).
