REFERRER INFO
We will call the patient to organise their procedure. You will receive the results report within 48 hours post procedure either via Medical Objects or the email you provide below. Scans are clinically accurate, safe, painless and quick. They do not require you to remove clothing or exercise. Our metabolism scan is a breath test using a mask. BI-Spectroscopy involves 2 electrodes on each of your wrists/ankles. If safe to do so, 4 hours of avoiding food, exercise, caffeine/nicotine is required for both Metabolism Scan and TBNA (we will inform the patient of the procedure preparation). DEXA utilises a small amount of ionising radiation that is recognised as very safe (exposure is up to 50 times less than a chest xray and less than a domestic flight). For clinical guidance and results interpretation guides, please contact us on info@mntdiagnostics.com.au
