Psychiatry

More and more people are interested in topics that start with ’psych-’, but sometimes people confuse what a psychiatrist does, and the differences between a psychologist and a psychiatrist. The main difference is in undergraduate education because a psychology degree can be obtained from the Faculty of Humanities of universities, while a psychiatry degree can be obtained as a professional examination following a general medical degree. Some psychologists take a clinical specialist psychologist exam, and they can then undertake training in a psychotherapeutic method. A psychotherapist can be qualified as a psychiatrist, but also as a doctor with other qualifications.

Endocrine and metabolic screening package for children

Disorders affecting the hormonal system and metabolism are diverse and widespread, making them among the most common health complaints in childhood. They can result in deficient or overactive glands (e.g. thyroid, growth), menstrual disorders during puberty, skin conditions (e.g. abnormal hair growth), weight control problems (e.g. insulin resistance, obesity, metabolic syndrome, or even abnormal leanness). Diseases not detected and treated in time - aside from cosmetic or aesthetic problems - can result in irreversible complications and associated diseases, such as central nervous system dysfunction, infertility, early atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, etc. Their detection, prevention and timely treatment is therefore essential in childhood/adolescence and requires a targeted, complex screening.   The screening package for children and adolescents involves a risk analysis in accordance with international medical guidelines, using a scientifically validated method and basic tests. Targeted examinations (laboratory and imaging) are then conducted to establish an accurate diagnosis or diagnoses. Lifestyle counselling and focused, individualized treatments are carried out according to any identified diseases or preventive conditions.

Hematology

Hematology deals with diseases of the hematopoietic and lymphatic organs, and one branch of it deals with disorders of blood clotting. Fortunately, severe hematopoietic diseases are rare, but abnormalities in blood counts are very common during routine blood sampling. Complicating matters is the fact that in Hungary, blood tests mean one thing in an everyday sense and something different in a medical sense. According to the vernacular, ‘complete blood count’ is the collective term for all tests performed on blood samples. However, doctors only mean a certain test: an examination of the blood's components, such as white blood cells, red blood cells, a platelet (thrombocyte) count and a few other parameters that are mainly indicative of the condition of the blood (for example hemoglobin, the hematocrit level, or the distribution of white blood cells). Quantitative changes in any of these can disturb the functioning of the body, whether the amount is higher or lower than necessary. It is also possible for several different cellular elements to increase or decrease simultaneously.

Hydrogen Breath Test

Hydrogen exhalation tests are a widespread gastroenterological examination method due to their simplicity and practicality. The examination is based on the fact that carbohydrates that are not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract are broken down by bacteria in the digestive system, accompanied by the formation of hydrogen, which enters the lungs through the bloodstream and enters the exhaled air.

Ultrasound Examinations

Ultrasound is in the domain of sound waves of a certain wavelength inaudible for human ears. The examination is harmless to the body and may be repeated without causing any side effects, thus widely used in diagnostics.

Pediatric cardiology

Heart disease in newborns, infants, and children is mostly congenital, but can also be acquired. The clinical presentation and course of congenital malformations can vary widely depending on the type of disease. Most of the abnormalities are mild and heal spontaneously or with medication, but they can also be very severe, with frightening symptoms that require urgent heart surgery or cardiac catheterization in the first days of life.

SKINBOOSTER HYALURONIC ACID FACIAL TREATMENT

The amount of hyaluronic acid produced naturally in our skin steadily declines from the age of 25, failing which the skin becomes dry and wrinkles appear. Fortunately, hyaluronic acid is replaceable, and when applied to the tissues it hydrates the skin from within, improving and rejuvenating its structure. The Skinbooster treatment is not intended for volume replenishment by traditional hyaluronic acid fillers but works its effect in the middle layer of the skin, normalizing hydration, thus making the skin radiant and smooth. It can be applied on the face, neck and décolleté, and even on the back of the hands.
