    CT, MRI, blood tests and other examinations may require separate payment and scheduling.

Registration for International Patients

Registration procedures may depend on the department, appointment type and hospital campus. International patients should carry their original passport. Some self-service machines may not fully support foreign passports, so assistance from a staffed registration counter may be needed.

Service What to Prepare Practical Note
CT scan Doctor's request, previous reports and information about allergies when contrast may be used. Ask whether fasting, kidney-function testing or contrast preparation is required.
