Cape Radiology, formerly Dr Tuft & Partners Inc., is a private radiology practice located in Cape Town, South Africa. The practice is primarily based at Mediclinic Constantiaberg, with several smaller centres nearby. Cape Radiology has 12 radiologists and employs over 100 people.
Our core focus is patient centricity, accuracy, proficiency, and care – striving for the best health outcome for those we serve.
Our radiologists are highly skilled general radiologists with individual subspecialty expertise in neuroradiology, musculoskeletal imaging, cardiac radiology, breast imaging, endometriosis imaging, gastrointestinal / body imaging, interventional radiology and others…
We offer all modern imaging modalities: 3T and 1.5T MRI, MDCT, high resolution ultrasound imaging, colour Doppler ultrasound, DXA (bone density), the full range of conventional radiography, and a dedicated breast imaging centre.
Specialised screening services include breast screening (mammography, breast tomosynthesis and breast MRI), low radiation dose lung screening, virtual colonoscopy and non-invasive coronary angiography.
Cape Radiology has joined a consortium to provide PET-CT (merged Positron Emission Tomography and CT scanning) in Cape Town at The Cape PET-CT Centre.
How We Work
Cape Radiology is a fully digital practice, using an Online PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System).
This means that all examination images are digital and are uploaded and stored on our secure PACS servers. From there, they are (or can be) electronically sent to our referring doctors and the hospital we service.
Radiologists use an advanced 3D analysis and visualisation tool to assist with reporting CT and MRI studies. This 3D technology brings a high level of quality and efficiency to viewing patients’ images.
Radiologists’ reports are attached to the images, allowing doctors to view both the image and the report easily and in parallel.
Linked to the PACS is our radiology information system (RIS). All patient information is stored on the RIS which facilitates seamless entry and retrieval of patient information. It is also the system through which to coordinate workflow.
By combining the best people, the most advanced systems and equipment, and a unified ideology, we ensure efficient and consistent excellence and care.
