LATEST TECHNOLOGY FOR BETTER DIAGNOSIS

We provide a full range of diagnostic services, based on the latest imaging technologies available.  Our services also include x-rays, CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, cath lab, sleep lab, eco vascular testing, and stress tests.

DIGITAL X-RAY

An X-ray is produced when a small amount of radiation passes through the body and is captured on film, video, or computer. These are some of the most common and useful diagnostic imaging tools available to physicians, used for everything from broken bones to gastrointestinal studies.

MRI SCANNER

An MRI uses a magnet linked to a computer to create detailed pictures of areas inside the body. Our machine allows for more precise diagnosis, better pre-surgical planning, and enhanced patient care. MRI allows evaluation of some bodily structures that may not be as visible with other diagnostic imaging methods. 

ULTRASOUND (GENERAL STUDIES)

Ultrasound is a test that bounces sound waves off tissue and organs and translates the sound waves into sonograms (pictures). Unlike x-rays and MRIs, it doesn’t use any radiation.

ULTRASOUND (CARDIAC IMAGES)

Ultrasound is a non-invasive technique that is used to generate real-time images of your body’s structures. Through a series of high-frequency sound waves, ultrasound technology allows for the visualization of blood vessels or joints throughout the body. Lower extremity vascular ultrasound is used to evaluate for deep vein thrombosis.

CT SCANNER (64 SLICE)

CT scans (computerized tomography scans) capture images from many different angles as X-rays are taken while rotating around the body. It is very useful when physicians suspect patients have medical problems not easily detected from a physical exam. After combining the images to form a three-dimensional view of a patient’s body, radiologists can evaluate the results and diagnose illnesses in a variety of areas like the spine, head, abdomen, and chest. Our 64-slice CT can capture images head-to-toe.

NUCLEAR MEDICINE CAMERA

Nuclear medicine allows physicians to evaluate organs, bones, and tissue from the inside out. Patients take a medication called a “radiopharaceutical” to emit trace amounts of radiation. The medicine may be injected, swallowed, or inhaled depending on the test. Computers can then record and track how that radiation moves through the body and is absorbed by tissue

ECP therapy

External Counterpulsation Therapy is a safe, non-surgical treatment procedure that delivers great clinical benefits to patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease. External Counterpulsation Therapy is growing in popularity due to the treatment being a low risk, non-surgical treatment at a fraction of the cost of other traditional invasive procedures.
