Modern medicine depends on radiology and imaging services for establishing informed treatment plans. As a medical provider, you need resources that support your practice. Our facility provides accurate, dependable and convenient imaging resources for you and your patients.

Many clinicians consider fluoroscopy an antiquated tool, but CT scans can cause harmful side effects. Ultrasounds also have their limitations. Doctors need guidance on which test to recommend for diagnosing specific digestive conditions.
Over the past couple of decades, the clinical use of fluoroscopy has declined significantly. So, is it still an essential diagnostic modality? Many emerging physicians say, “No,” discounting it as a viable resource.
Radiology testing uses radiant energy to take pictures and visualize many body parts. Our radiologists use these tests to determine a diagnosis and evaluate treatment. Here are some of the tools and tests we use to help establish care plans for your patients.
Mammography is an X-ray used to detect and diagnose breast concerns. With equipment dedicated to these breast exams, we provide high-quality, low-dose radiation to evaluate breast problems, such as a lump, pain or nipple drainage.
Nuclear imaging is one of the least invasive and most detailed scans for diagnosing and monitoring various treatments. This safe and effective testing utilizes a radioactive tracer for clear visualization. A medical professional typically administers the tracer intravenously.
Your patients may be concerned about the terminology “nuclear” or “radioactive,” but patients need to understand that this test is safe, effective and has no side effects. Additionally, the amount of radiation administered is minimal. Common conditions that can benefit from nuclear imaging are the following:
After the tracer collects in the tissue, a radiation detector produces digital signals, which are stored on a computer and can be generated to film. Our facility is committed to establishing a safe environment, and our radiologists are available to answer any questions.
Computerized tomography, or CT scan, is a series of X-ray images that take pictures from different angles around the body. The cross-sectional images help our skilled radiologists visualize blood vessels, bones and other tissue. This efficient and convenient test allows for quick examination, especially when the patient is at risk of internal injury or trauma. CT scans help diagnose diseases and plan medical, surgical and radiation therapies.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses magnets and radio waves, processed by computers, to generate images. This noninvasive test utilizes a large, tube-shaped magnet to create cross-sectional images of organs, tissue and the skeletal system. Our knowledgeable radiologists often use this imaging tool for diseases that CT scans don’t detect.
An ultrasound, or sonography, produces high-intensity sound waves to visualize structures within the body. This safe and effective test does not use any radiation.
We often think of ultrasound during prenatal care. Besides monitoring the uterus, ovaries, and embryos during pregnancy, this test can be used for many other reasons.
Our well-trained and personable sonographers understand how to manipulate this technology and can put your patients at ease.
Our medical staff uses X-rays, or radiographs, for a wide range of injuries, diseases and disorders. Your patients can receive radiographs with or without contrast. Though this test uses a small amount of radiation, it is considered safe for all ages, including babies. However, pregnant women should avoid X-rays as they can harm the growing embryo.
Radiology testing has become commonplace for medical professionals. We depend on detailed imaging to make informed diagnoses and treatment plans. However, our team understands that tests can cause fear and anxiety for your patients. That’s why we’re committed to listening and providing compassionate care.
Our radiology specialists provide a wide range of imaging procedures. We aim to deliver detailed imaging to your practice while providing your patient with a kind and caring experience. Our radiologists and technologists are truly extraordinary.
