Diagnostic Imaging in Madrid with Cutting-Edge Technology

Team led by Dr. Mª de los Desamparados Esteban Peris

The Diagnostic Imaging Department at Hospital Blua Sanitas Valdebebas combines state-of-the-art equipment with artificial intelligence to provide faster, safer, and more accurate diagnoses.

Through technological innovation, we enhance patient experience, reduce scan times, and optimize results in complex pathologies.

 

Advanced Technology for Precise Diagnosis

  • Hybrid operating room with interventional radiology – multifunctional suite for complex procedures.

 

  • Mammography with tomosynthesis, contrast-enhanced studies, and stereotactic biopsy.

 

  • High-end densitometry and ultrasound systems for comprehensive assessments.

 

  • AI-assisted imaging diagnostics, enabling early detection and preliminary analysis of pathologies.

 

Spectral Dual-Energy CT – Superior Accuracy Compared to Conventional CT

  • Higher image quality with improved tissue characterization.

 

  • Lower overall radiation exposure.

 

  • Advanced evaluation of tumors, hemorrhage, and calcifications.

 

  • Assessment of osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and liver steatosis.

 

  • Optimized diagnostic protocols for stroke, trauma, and kidney stones.

 

3T Magnetic Resonance Imaging – High Resolution and Enhanced Patient Experience

  • Ultra high-definition images with shorter scan times.

 

  • Greater comfort for claustrophobic and pediatric patients, including sedation protocols when needed.

 

  • Advanced applications: functional neuroimaging, tractography, and 4D FLOW cardiac studies.

 

  • Improved detection of subtle lesions with fewer artifacts.

 

Specialized Areas in Diagnostic Imaging

  • Body and cardiac imaging.

 

  • Oncologic imaging.

 

  • Musculoskeletal imaging and interventional procedures.

Treatments

 

 

Comprehensive Radiology Service

The Radiology Department offers the full spectrum of imaging techniques, including plain radiology, ultrasound, mammography, CT, MRI, fluoroscopy, interventional radiology and bone densitometry.

Our team of radiologists covers all diagnostic subspecialties, ensuring accurate and personalized evaluations:

  • Body Imaging (thoracic–abdominal): including urological, gynecological and digestive imaging, PET/CT and tumor assessment using RECIST criteria.

 

  • Cardiothoracic Imaging: coronary and cardiac anatomical studies, pre-interventional cardiac assessments, lung imaging, pulmonary nodule evaluation and lung cancer screening.

 

  • Breast Imaging: tomosynthesis with and without contrast, stereotactic biopsies, fine-needle aspiration (FNA), vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB), breast MRI, ultra-fast MRI and implant evaluation.

 

  • Musculoskeletal Imaging: including advanced interventional procedures such as radiofrequency ablation of bone lesions, percutaneous cryoablation of bone and soft tissue tumors (e.g., desmoid), interdigital neuroma treatment, ultrasound-guided hyaluronic acid injections for severe hip and knee osteoarthritis, ultrasound-guided therapies for musculoskeletal injuries (plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, trochanteric bursitis), ultrasound-guided barbotage for calcific tendinopathy and hydrodilatation for adhesive capsulitis.

 

  • Neurointervention.

 

  • Neuroradiology (head and neck): advanced studies including spectroscopy, perfusion, tractography, functional MRI, ASL, epilepsy and multiple sclerosis assessment, tumor evaluation, angiography, Parkinson’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.

 

  • General Interventional and Vascular Radiology.

 

  • Pediatric Radiology.
