Imaging Studies
We’re pleased to offer in-house ultrasound imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography. A small probe with gel is placed directly on the skin while high-frequency sound waves are transmitted from the probe through the gel into the body to make an image of internal body structures. Doctors commonly use ultrasound to view the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, liver, and other organs, or study a developing fetus. We also perform echocardiograms, which check how the heart’s chambers and valves are pumping blood through the heart. It uses electrodes to check heart rhythm and ultrasound technology to see how blood moves through the heart. It is commonly used to help diagnose heart conditions.
Our doctors may recommend and refer patients for additional imaging when needed. A computerized tomography scan (also known as CT or CAT scans), are a series of images taken from different angles around the body using X-rays and computer processing to make cross-sectional visuals of bones, blood vessels, and soft tissues inside the body. Images from these scans can provide greater detailed information than just an X-ray can do.
