From Sports Radiology to Comprehensive Diagnostics
About Us — Who We Are, Why We Were Founded, and Who We Serve
We Started a Small Center.
MediRad was established in 2021 with a clear ambition: to bring to Slovakia top-tier musculoskeletal radiology, previously known only to patients abroad. We began in a single clinic at Teslova 33 and from day one, we focused on close collaboration with sports clubs and federations. A top athlete needs the same as any other patient—only faster. Rapid diagnosis, clear answers, and a return to training without weeks of uncertainty.
This approach remains with us after five years and hundreds of athletes helped back into the game through our clinics. Today, we serve top national representatives—Slovak Football Association, Slovan Bratislava, FC Spartak Trnava, BK Inter Bratislava, Slovak Volleyball and Handball Federations, National Sports Centre, SND Ballet—as well as patients who would never have imagined hearing about us for the first time through sports radiology. A mother with a child after a bicycle fall. A dancer with a torn Achilles tendon. A fifty-year-old who returned to tennis after twenty years of sedentary work—and his shoulder lets him know.
Our Team
Under the leadership of MUDr. Vladimír Neuschl, PhD., co-founder of MediRad, we built a small workspace into a reference center for musculoskeletal and sports radiology in Slovakia. In 2026, Forbes listed him among the most respected figures in Slovak medicine. He chairs the MSK Section of the Slovak Radiological Society and leads the professional and organizational work of our team.
Our team consists of experienced radiologists with European board certifications. Besides MUDr. Neuschl, we have MUDr. Péter Bábel as the expert guarantor, MUDr. Alexej Komarov – both top-tier specialists in MSK USG, and MUDr. Jitka Chatrnúchová specializing in breast diagnostics. We are gradually adding more colleagues in various subspecialties. Our standard is to consult every complex finding in detail—not out of formality, but because time, experience, and patience can catch things overlooked in routine practice.
Moving to BBC5
In early June 2026, after five years, we moved from Teslova 33 to a new address—Plynárenská 7C in the BBC5 complex. Not because we disliked the old premises, but because we outgrew them. The new space allows parallel operation of two USG clinics, various examinations, and a dedicated preparation area for CBCT. For patients, this means shorter waiting times and a smoother visit.
What We Do
CBCT NewTom 7G. In 2026, we installed the first whole-body CBCT in Central Europe. 3D diagnostics of joints, bones, jaws, and sinuses with 90-micrometer resolution and significantly lower radiation dose than conventional CT. Suitable for children and patients with implants.
Digital X-ray AGFA DX-D 300. Whole-body radiography on a modern digital device—rapid basic diagnostics for musculoskeletal injuries, lungs, and other organs.
Two USG Clinics. Sonographic diagnostics of the musculoskeletal system, abdominal organs, breasts, blood vessels, and peripheral nerves. We also consult external radiology findings when you need a second opinion.
Neurology Clinic. Back pain, musculoskeletal dysfunctions, and peripheral nerve diseases, with a special focus on neurological issues in athletes and post-injury patients.
Interventional Procedures under USG/CBCT Guidance. Ozone application for back pain (PRT—periradicular therapy), medication application for tendon and joint diseases. The needle is under imaging control throughout the procedure—targeting accuracy around 95% compared to 60–70% with classic blind application.
MediRad in Numbers
10,000+ patients examined • 4.9 / 5 from 1,407 reviews on Bookio
Who We Serve
For anyone needing precise diagnostics without weeks of waiting. For professional athletes and weekend runners alike. For a parent with an injured child afraid of radiation (our CBCT dose is orders of magnitude lower than conventional CT). For an older patient with arthritis, a woman needing a breast ultrasound, or a doctor referring a patient for a second opinion.
We also collaborate with companies to organize health days, preventive check-ups, and sports events—from breast USG screenings for prevention to sports diagnostics for clubs and teams, up to individual corporate packages.
