🧠 This National Stroke Week, we're here to remind you of the critical role that radiology plays in stroke diagnosis and management. Across our network of Capital Radiology, FMIG and Direct Radiology, our team is equipped with CT and MRI technology to support rapid stroke assessment.

Stroke Foundation recommends the F.A.S.T. test as an easy way to remember the most common signs of stroke. Using the F.A.S.T. test involves asking these simple questions:
1. Face: Check their face. Has their mouth drooped?
2. Arms: Can they lift both arms?
3. Speech: Is their speech slurred? Do they understand you?
4. Time: Is critical. If you see any of these signs call 000 (triple zero) straight away.

A stroke is always a medical emergency. Keep looking at your family, friends and colleagues - it could save their life.
