A traditional 1.5T MRI is a widely used and reliable imaging technique for capturing detailed images of your body’s internal structures. The “1.5T” stands for the strength of the magnetic field, which provides excellent image clarity and is ideal for diagnosing a wide range of conditions, from brain and spinal issues to joint injuries and internal organ problems. This type of MRI is the gold standard for many physicians due to its proven effectiveness in delivering high-quality images that help them accurately identify and treat various medical conditions.

Our 1.5T traditional is equipped with fast scan technology, significantly reducing the time you need to spend in the machine by up to 48%. Shorter scan times mean you can get through the study more quickly and comfortably, while still providing unparalleled imaging detail.

An Open MRI is a common alternative to traditional MRI machines, especially for those who experience claustrophobia. The spacious design allows for easier positioning and flexibility, making it a more comfortable experience.

Despite its lower magnetic field strength, the Open MRI delivers accurate images for diagnosing a variety of conditions, including joint injuries, soft tissue abnormalities, and certain neurological disorders. This technology is perfect for pediatric, geriatric, and bariatric patients, ensuring that everyone can receive the diagnostic imaging they need without discomfort.

A 16-Slice CT scanner is a widely used and reliable imaging technique for capturing high-quality views of the body. This technology captures multiple images (slices) simultaneously, delivering detailed images in a short amount of time. The “gold standard” in CT imaging equipment helps assess conditions such as bone fractures, lung disease, and abdominal pain.

Ultrasound imaging, or sonography, uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of structures within the body. This technique is commonly used for monitoring fetal development during pregnancy, examining abdominal and pelvic organs, and assessing blood flow through vessels. Ultrasound is safe, non-invasive, and does not use ionizing radiation. It’s also helpful in guiding minimally invasive procedures, such as needle biopsies, and in diagnosing conditions related to the heart, liver, kidneys, and other organs

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) combined with CT scanning provides detailed information about the body’s metabolic activity and anatomical structures. This medical imaging technique is frequently recommended by oncologists, as it can detect cancerous cells and monitor the effectiveness of treatments. PET/CT scans are also used in cardiology to assess heart function and in neurology to evaluate brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy. The combination of PET and CT technologies offers a comprehensive view, enhancing the accuracy of diagnoses and treatment planning.

An Amyloid PET/CT combines positron emission tomography (PET) with computed tomography (CT) technology to provide detailed images of your brain by analyzing your amyloid plaques – where early signs of Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive conditions may appear. Your physician may recommend an Amyloid PET/CT to capture a comprehensive assessment of plaque build-up in the brain. Monitoring changes in your plaques can be a strong indicator of early stage cognitive decline, and show positive progression of a variety of therapies.

Pylarify PSMA PET/CT is an advanced imaging technique designed to detect and monitor prostate cancer, even at low PSA levels. This innovative approach combines PET/CT imaging with Pylarify (18F-DCFPyL), providing unmatched accuracy in identifying and monitoring prostate cancer cells which would otherwise go unnoticed. 

Angiography uses special dye in combination with another technique (MRI, CT, or X-ray) to visualize blood vessels and other parts of the vascular system. The images produced allow our radiologists to see the blood flow through your arteries and veins to identify signs of blockages, aneurysms, coronary artery disease, and other abnormalities.

Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry, or DEXA, uses low-dose X-rays to provide detailed images of your bones, usually the spine, hip, and wrist. This scan measures your bone mineral density and assesses your risk for osteoporosis or fractures. Early detection of low bone density allows for you and your doctor to manage any future risk by making lifestyle changes and starting proactive treatment plans..

Digital X-ray technology captures images of the inside of the body using digital sensors instead of traditional photographic film. This method provides clearer images with less radiation exposure, making it safer for you. Digital X-rays are commonly used to detect fractures, infections, and abnormalities in bones and soft tissues. They are also commonly used for chest examinations, and detecting conditions like arthritis and osteoporosis. The quick processing time of digital X-rays allows for fast review by our radiologists to confirm a diagnosis by your doctor.

A low-dose CT lung screening is an advanced imaging technique that uses a lower amount of radiation compared to a standard CT, making it ideal for routine lung screenings and monitoring. By identifying lung cancer at an early stage, your doctor can develop a custom treatment plan, leading to better outcomes and improved quality of life.
