Ultrasound is the use of high-frequency sound waves to create images from within the body. By using these sound waves, images can be obtained of a variety of internal organs and structures. Ultrasound is utilized in studies of the major organs including the heart, blood vessels and in obstetrics where the unborn baby can be observed.

Our advanced, trained and credentialed team of ultrasound sonographers have years of experience with ultrasound imaging and work in conjunction with our board-certified radiologists to use a vast array of imaging procedures from the embryo to the elderly ensuring that they are providing our patients with the best possible medical care.

Exams and services offered include:

• All STAT reports available within minutes
• Abdominal
• Obstetrical
• Pelvis
• Small parts: testicle, thyroid and superficial anatomy
• Breast: Biopsy, wire localization, cyst aspiration, palpable lumps, breast pain and post mammogram investigation
• Fluid aspirations including paracentesis.

An echocardiogram is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic test that uses high-frequency sound waves (not detectable by the human ear) to produce moving images of the heart. An echocardiogram is performed to:

• Show the size and shape of your heart
• Determine how well your heart’s chambers and valves are working
• Show how well blood flows through your heart’s chambers and valves
• Pinpoint areas of heart muscle that aren’t contracting well because of poor blood flow or injury from a previous heart attack
• Detect possible blood clots inside the heart, fluid buildup in the pericardium (the sac around the heart), and problems with the aorta

We use state-of-the-art GE Discovery nuclear medicine imaging  dual scanner detectors, which decrease scanning time by 50%. We offer more than  20 different procedures including gallbladder, cardiac and bone. Hyperthyroidism therapy is available.

Healthcare providers use fluoroscopy for diagnostic purposes and visual guidance during certain procedures (known as interventional guidance).

Physicians use fluoroscopy for two main reasons:

• Diagnostic purposes
• As a guidance for certain procedures (needle guidance) also known as intervention by using fluor.

Some of the body systems visualized include:

• Cardiac
• Digestive
• Urinary
• Musculoskeletal
• Reproductive

Using state-of-the-art technology for metal artifact reduction, iterative reconstruction algorithms, adaptive collimation and countless integrated safety measures, we deliver the highest quality images while lowering radiation dose.

• Aquilion 160 Slice CT system: This advanced diagnosis imaging system revolutionizes patient care because it reduces diagnosis time for life-threatening diseases such as stroke and heart disease. The Aquilion CT system can scan organs including the heart, brain and others in seconds. This reduces exam time as well as radiation dose to the patient. It uses advanced AI technology for best image quality and reduces the dose to the patient. SEMAR (single energy metal artifact reduction) reduces metallic artifacts improving visualization of implants and supporting bones. We are excited to offer additional protocols for brain and dynamic joint CT.

MRI is one of the safest, most comfortable ways to obtain clear, detailed pictures of the inside of the human body without the use of X-rays, surgery, or biopsy. MRI scans are painless for the patient and offer such accurate images that physicians can often obtain as much information from the MRI scan as if they were looking directly at the tissue.

• Tesla 1.5 Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Capabilities include brain, spinal cord, and musculoskeletal imaging (soon to offer breast imaging).
