Imaging & X-ray · Benin City, Edo State
A clearer look inside.
X-ray and ultrasound imaging on site, supporting diagnosis across the whole hospital. Your scan happens where your doctor works, so results move quickly, and someone who knows your case sits down with you to explain what the images show.
Overview
Imaging that answers a question.
A scan is only useful if it answers the question your doctor is asking. That is how imaging works here: your clinician orders the study, the imaging team performs it on site, and the result goes straight back into your chart. Whether it is a chest X-ray for a stubborn cough, an X-ray after a fall, or an ultrasound of the abdomen or a pregnancy, the scan serves the treatment.
Because imaging sits inside the hospital, it supports every other service: general medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, and the emergency room. There is no carrying films across town and no waiting days for a report to travel back. Available studies grow over time, so for a specific scan, call the front desk and they will confirm current availability.
You never leave decoding a report alone. Your clinician reviews the images with you, explains what was found and what was ruled out, and connects the result to the next step in your care, whether that is treatment, a repeat scan later, or simple reassurance.

Have your scan

Review the results
The images and report go to your clinician, who sits with you, explains what they show, and agrees the next step with you.
Common questions
Good to know.
Is an X-ray safe?
Modern X-ray equipment uses low doses of radiation, and a single study is considered very safe for most people. Tell the team if you are pregnant or think you might be, so they can choose the safest approach, which is often an ultrasound instead.
Do I need an appointment for a scan?
Scans ordered during a visit usually happen as part of that visit. For a standalone scan or one requested elsewhere, call the front desk first: they confirm availability and book you a time.
Do I need to prepare before an ultrasound?
Some scans need preparation, such as a full bladder for certain pelvic scans or a fasting window for some abdominal scans. You will be told exactly what to do when the scan is booked.
Can I bring scans done elsewhere?
Yes, please do. Previous images and reports help your clinician compare, see what has changed, and avoid repeating a study unnecessarily.
How much does a scan cost?
Prices depend on the study. The front desk confirms current rates and any HMO or insurance cover before your visit, so you know the cost before the scan happens.
