The services of Casa di Cura Pio XI provide support activities for both inpatient and outpatient care, aimed at achieving an accurate diagnosis and establishing the necessary therapy.

Diagnostic Imaging, directed by Prof. Gianfranco Gualdi, is at the forefront in Italy thanks to the high professionalism of its radiological staff and the state-of-the-art equipment at its disposal.

    • Services are performed for inpatient and outpatient patients, guaranteeing the service from Monday to Friday, with waiting times of less than 2 days for non-urgent examinations.
    • The department is equipped to perform all types of examinations, including interventional procedures (biopsies, drainages, etc.), both elective and emergency, for both inpatients and outpatients.
    • An anesthesiologist is always present during the service for all examinations that require the administration of intravenous contrast agents or for examinations that must be performed under sedation.
    • Reporting is done jointly with the comparison of multiple professionals on each individual case and all exams are reported on the same day they are performed.
    • The Diagnostic Imaging service at Casa di Cura Pio XI relies on the collaboration of a staff composed of radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians with many years of experience and highly professional medical radiology technicians.
