Queensland X-Ray

We are pleased to announce the opening of our new fully comprehensive practice at the SCURSS Health & Wellness Centre, a state-of-the-art medical precinct, in Mount Gravatt. Queensland X-Ray’s additional location reflects our commitment to provide greater access to advanced imaging examinations in a community setting for patients and referring doctors. It has been a pleasure working with Belnic Constructions to create an environment where our patients feel comfortable and welcome from the moment they enter Queensland X-Ray. #radiology

Every June, National Scoliosis Awareness Month highlights the need for education, early detection and awareness about scoliosis and its prevalence. An EOS scan can be particularly useful for patients with scoliosis, a condition involving curvature of the spine, or other conditions requiring regular or repeated X-ray exams. The technology allows us to capture life-size full-body images of your skeleton in 3D, in your natural standing position and provides a detailed scan in less than 20 seconds. To gain a further understanding of how EOS works, watch this video: https://buff.ly/4brLBpj Your doctor will be able to determine whether you would benefit from having an EOS scan. #ScoliosisAwarenessMonth #EOS

Dr Rajalakshmi Ramesh joined Queensland X-Ray as a consultant radiologist in 2024 and is currently completing a fellowship in neuro, spine, head and neck radiology. When asked what her motivation was for undertaking a fellowship with Queensland X-Ray, Dr Ramesh explained: “The neuro, spine, head and neck radiology hybrid fellowship program at Queensland X-Ray provides me with the opportunity of further cultivating my subspecialty interests in challenging and stimulating environments in both hospital-based and community branches. I can gain further proficiency and excellence in both neuroradiological image analysis and interpretation, whilst also augmenting my general radiology qualifications. Queensland X-Ray is at the forefront of neuroimaging and will ultimately complement my ambitions for career progression in the field of diagnostic neuroradiology.” For more information about our fellowship opportunities visit: https://buff.ly/3D276wX To read Dr Rajalakshmi Ramesh’s biography, visit https://buff.ly/3Qohw12
