For our young patients, we offer the entire spectrum of high-quality imaging diagnostics with modern technology, divided into the following different radiological modalities:

• X-ray and fluoroscopyThe rooms of the pediatric clinic are equipped with X-ray and fluoroscopy facilities.
• Sonography (in the rooms of the pediatric clinic); the head of the pediatric radiology department is an instructor (level II radiology) of the German Society for Ultrasound in Medicine (DEGUM) and has DEGUM level I (pediatric sonography).
• Bone density measurement (on the premises of the Institute of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology) using a modern dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) device.
• Computed tomographyIn the rooms of the Institute of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, a modern, very fast 256-line computer tomograph (2 x 128 lines in "dual source" technology with 2 X-ray tubes and 2 detectors) with optimized exposure of X-rays is available.
• Magnetic resonance imaging with 1.5 and 3 Tesla devices in the rooms of the Institute of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology.
