Imaging services

Imaging exams allow radiologists (imaging specialists) and physicians to view structures and activity within the body. This is vital for diagnosis but also for treatment, to ensure your care plan is working as it should.

Our medical imaging services

With modern imaging tools, our physicians can gain a clear picture of your body's internal structures. In some cases, our image-guided tools can even prevent the need for certain surgeries.

Inpatient and outpatient diagnostic imaging

The field of medical imaging now encompasses a number of services. We provide imaging on an inpatient and outpatient basis, including:

  • Computerized tomography (CT) — Uses a series of X-rays to create a 3D image of a part of the body and allows our physicians to detect signs of an injury or disease
  • Fluoroscopy — Uses X-ray to create footage of internal structures of the body in motion and helps physicians look at the heart vessels, bowel, bones, joints and muscles in more detail
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) — Uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce images of tissue and internal organs that help physicians diagnose conditions, such as spinal cord injuries, heart disease and blood vessel damage
  • Nuclear medicine— Involves a gamma radiation detecting camera and tiny amounts of radioactive tracer material that allow physicians to view images of the body and detect, monitor and treat diseases
  • Ultrasound — Uses sound waves to produce images of the body, called sonograms, and allows us to view and monitor internal structures of the body without radiation
  • X-ray — Involves a small amount of radiation to produce a picture of an area inside the body and allows us to detect infections and orthopedic conditions, such as broken bones and dislocated joints

We are proud to be accredited by the American College of Radiology for our CT, MRI, nuclear medicine and ultrasound services.

Heart imaging

Diagnostic testing is key to quickly and accurately identifying heart conditions. We offer the following cardiac imaging procedures to help detect heart disease in its earliest stages:

  • Echocardiogram
  • Electrocardiogram
  • Magnetic resonance angiography

Neuroimaging

Our neurology programs use a variety of imaging procedures to diagnose complex conditions affecting the brain, spine and nerves. Neuroimaging procedures we perform include:

  • Carotid duplex ultrasound
  • Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)
  • Extracranial ultrasonography
  • Transcranial doppler
  • Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)
  • Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE)
