Arthrography
Arthrography is the radiographic examination of a joint after the injection of a dye-like contrast material and/or air to outline the soft tissue and joint structures on the images.
-
Barium Studies
Images of the bowel and colon are also used to diagnose inflammatory bowel disease, a group of disorders that include Crohn?s disease and ulcerative colitis.
-
Bone Density Studies
CT Bone Density testing is used most often to diagnose osteoporosis and risk for fractures.
-
Cardiac Nuclear Medicine
Cardiac nuclear medicine tests are indicated for individuals with unexplained chest pain or chest pain brought on by exercise to permit the early detection of heart disease.
-
Cardioscan
For people at risk for heart disease, Cardioscan is a non-invasive way to detect a serious heart condition
-
CT and Ultrasound Guided Biopsy
A biopsy is examined by a pathologist for abnormalities, such as cancer.
-
CT Angiography
CT (computed tomography) angiography (CTA) is an examination that uses x-rays to visualize blood flow in arterial vessels throughout the body, from arteries serving the brain to those bringing blood to the lungs, kidneys, and the arms and legs.
-
CT Scan
Computed tomography, sometimes called CAT scans, can more easily diagnose problems such as cancers, cardiovascular disease, infectious disease, trauma, and musculoskeletal disorders.
-
Echocardiography
An echo can detect the two main problems that affect heart valves, stenosis and regurgitation (also called insufficiency).
-
Intravenous Pylegram (IVP)
The IVP exam can enable the radiologist to detect problems within your urinary tract resulting from kidney stones; enlarged prostate; internal injuries after an accident or trauma; tumors in the kidney, ureters, or urinary bladder; and other changes.
-
Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA)
MR angiography (MRA) utilizes MR technology to detect, diagnose and aid the treatment of heart disorders, stroke and blood vessel diseases.
-
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
MRI is the most sensitive exam for brain tumors, strokes, and certain chronic disorders of the nervous system such as multiple sclerosis. In addition, it is a useful means of documenting brain abnormalities in patients with dementia.
-
Mammography
Mammography plays a central part in early detection of breast cancers because it can show changes in the breast up to two years before a patient or physician can feel them.
-
Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine assists physicians in diagnosing diseases, such as analyzing kidney function, determine presence or spread of cancer and evaluating bones for fracture, infection, arthritis or tumor.
-
Ultrasound
Ultrasound imaging is a useful way of examining many of the body's soft tissues, including the heart, liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, kidneys, blood vessels, breast, and bladder.
-
Upper GI
An upper GI procedure is done to observe digestive function or to detect abnormalities such as ulcers, tumors or inflammation of the esophagus, stomach and proximal small intestine.
-
Virtual Colonoscopy
A virtual colonoscopy allows doctors to look at hte colon to detect polyps and colorectal cancer.
-
Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCU)
A voiding cystourethrogram (VCU) is an x-ray examination of the bladder and lower urinary tract to check for a condition known as vesicoureteral (VU) reflux.
-
X-Ray
Bone x-rays can determine bone density, texture, erosion, and evaluate the joints for diseases such as osteoarthritis. Pneumonia, heart failure, pleurisy and lung cancer can be diagnosed or suspected on a chest x-ray.
