-
Sziget Active screening
(Femina & Mennen)
-
Sziget Comfort screening
-
Sziget Comfort Plus
screening
-
VIP screening
Sziget Active (Femina
& Mennen):
The main aim of Sziget
Active screening is to prevent malignant tumors, which unfortunately afflict
more and more young people
every day or to diagnose them in the early, treatable stages.
These include leukemia
and cancers of the cervix, breast, thyroid, lymph nodes, prostate and testicles.
Our examination methodds
boast a 100 percent detection rate and cause neiter pain nor discomfort
(X-rays are not used) Every precaution is taken to ensure that instruments
that come into contact with
the test subject are used
once only.
Factors that increase
one's susceptibility to illnesses in later life are also examined. By measuring
cholesterol, blood sugar
and uric acid levels, we can help prevent the development of cardiac and
peripheral stenosis, diabetes
and joint complaints caused by gout. Ultrasound is used to examine the
bile
ducts and renal pelvis
to prevent calculous cramps and inflammation from causing sudden incapacitation.
Sziget Comfort screening:
Following a conventional
clinical examination, a chest X-ray and electrocardiogram (ECG) are taken.
Ulrasound is used to from
a picture of the epidermic tissue and of those organs that are susceptible
to
cancer, such as the thyroid
gland, breasts and testicles. In addition to examining the operation of
the
various organs and of
one's metabolism, including individual hormone levels, laboratory tests
check for
the presence of viral
infections and cancer cells. Particularly important are gynecological testing
for
women and urology examinations
for men.
This typeof screening
takes approximately one hour and a half to complete and is followed by
an
explanation of the results.
Sziget Comfort Plus
screening:
For clients over thirty
years of age or those with metabolic disorders, such as high blood sugar
or fat
levls, we recommend ECG
and blood pressure analysis(ergometry). This type of screenig adds 40
minutes to the length
of the basics (Sziget Comfort) screening.
V.I.P. screening:
If even the mildest gastric
or intestinal trouble is prolonged or recurs, or if blood is present in
the feces, the stomach and colon must be examined. V.I.P screening begins
on a Friday afternoon with primary
examinations followed
by preparation for the examination of the stomach and colon, to be carried
out
the following morning.
It is advisible, therefore, that clients remain in the institute overnight.
