Alpha Medical

Alpha Medical is Slovakia's established private healthcare network, offering a full spectrum of diagnostic services from its Bratislava IV flagship centre at Polianky 7. The clinic combines a comprehensive clinical laboratory with outpatient diagnostic imaging, making it a single-visit destination for preventive health assessment and symptomatic investigation. The CT imaging department provides cross-sectional studies of the chest, abdomen, and vascular system using modern multi-slice CT equipment. Self-pay prices are straightforward and published in EUR. CT of the chest covers the full thoracic cavity — lung parenchyma, mediastinum, and bony thorax — while abdominal CT evaluates the liver, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, and bowel. Contrast studies are available where clinically indicated; the radiologist advises on contrast necessity at the referral review stage. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring provides a non-contrast cardiac CT that quantifies calcified atherosclerotic plaque and stratifies cardiovascular risk using the Agatston method — a valuable preventive tool for adults aged 40 and over who wish to understand their cardiac risk beyond standard blood-based markers. CT angiography of the vascular system delivers contrast-enhanced three-dimensional mapping of the arteries when detailed vessel assessment is required. The centre operates Monday to Friday with extended hours to serve both referred and direct-access patients. Results and CD image copies are provided after examination; urgent findings are communicated directly to referring physicians. Alpha Medical holds contracts with major Slovak health insurers for covered referrals alongside self-pay access for patients who prefer to arrange imaging directly.
