The Radiology department in Nuuk is Greenland's main radiology department, and we perform conventional radiological examinations, ultrasound, CT, MRI, fluoroscopy, mammography, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.
The entire radiology area is fully digitized, and all radiographs taken on the coast are automatically transmitted to the radiology department in Nuuk, and all clinicians throughout Greenland can view radiographs/descriptions on their computers via Sectra, as well as there is a direct link to the Capital Region, specifically Rigshospitalet.
MR and CT coronary descriptions are provided by Rigshospitalet, and we also have mammography teams from Denmark to perform these approximately every 6 weeks. We have daily drop-in times for patients from the health center.
We receive acute patients from the emergency room daily, and we examine traumas from all over Greenland. We also collaborate with TMC for descriptions of radiological examinations.
The department performs approximately 17,000 examinations per year, including about 3,500 CT scans, 1,200 MRI scans, and about 2,000 ultrasound examinations.
