Medicentres pioneered the use of Computer Aided Medical Screening systems. Data from Medical History, Examination and Screening Tests are computer processed and provide printouts with graphical representation of results and overall medical fitness given as a percentage score. This system makes the medical report far easier to understand, high-lighting avoidable health-risks, and in some-cases provides early detection of medical problems.
