Working together with specialised practioners, the Medical Imaging service has three main areas of work:

- Imaging techniques for women and children:

- Gynaecological and obsteric ultrasounds,
- Standard X-ray examinations, hysterography, mammography, pelvimetry, cystography…
- Scanner examinations, including by pelvi-scanner,
- MRI examinations (carried out by doctors from the Institut hospitalier Franco-Britannique at the Ambroise Paré Clinic in Neuilly).

- Emergency imaging for adults, children and newborns:

- X-rays (an operator is on site 24/7) with analysis of examinations carried out at night together with casualty doctors.
- Ultrasound staffare on call outside normal hours.

- Diagnostic imaging and screen:

Apart from the examinations already mentioned, the team is equipped to effect:
- guided biopsy punctures;
- injections under conventional X-rays or ultrasound in rheumatology;
- scanner imaging
as well as:
- Osteodensiometry to screen for osteoporosis;
- Digital mammographic screening;
- Screening for chromosomal anomalies in the first three months (ultrasound by a trained doctor)
and other techniques:
- panoramic dental scanners, dentascanner,
- specialised ultrasound, particularly for joints and contrast ultrasounds.

The medical team helps organise multidisciplinary staff to analyse some cases.

The Medical Imaging Service’s operations - Data collected by the different techniques are all digitalised and archived in the PACS system (Fuji Synapse). They are kept throughout a hospitalisation and are available for consultation by hospital doctors in respect of the rules of confidentiality. - Analysis of examinations is digitalised and added to dossiers with the permission of the radiologist. - For outpatients or patients from elsewhere, X-ray, ultrasound or scanner examinations are delivered on film or paper (or on a CD for the scanner) with a detailed report. The document is delivered immediately or later depending on the degree of emergency (never more than 48 hours) and archived on the PACS. - Appointments are arranged by the secretariat on each site or by telephone.
