OUR SERVICES
Our Technology
Shire Radiology sites use the latest digital x-ray technology. Our x-ray system is state of the art hospital grade DR-Longtail system currently used at Westmead children’s hospital because of its extremely low dose radiation.
This technology allows images to be captured at high-resolution. The digital images are then able to be remotely viewed, analysed and reported on by radiologists. This speeds up the process and provides a better experience for both patients and healthcare professionals. We have an on call radiologist at all times, and can have a radiologist report on the x-rays within 48 hours.
Chiropractic X-Rays
Shire Radiology’s team are chiropractic radiology specialists. We can provide quality diagnostic support and deliver you clinically relevant, detailed radiology reports that identify any biomechanical abnormalities.
Chiropractors are then able to use these reports to assist in developing patient management plans that help to enhance patient outcomes.
General X-Rays
Shire Radiology is able to provide general radiology services (for example, x-raying suspected broken bones). We accept referrals from all registered health professionals such as GP's, medical specialists, Chiropractors, Physiotherapists and Podiatrists. We also have an onsite health professional who can refer patients for imaging in most cases if you do not have a referral.
We Bulk Bill
We use HICAPS technology at our clinic. This ensures that our clients can claim their benefit on the spot with only one swipe of their medicare card or private health fund card, and then only a gap payment is required. This means there is no hassle queuing up at your local branch.
