General Radiology is available for routine and emergency services. Fluoroscopy (live images) of body parts are particularly useful in visualizing the esophagus and colon to determine if any obstruction or malfunction.

Nuclear Medicine

Nuclear medicine is the use of very small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose disease. Nuclear medicine can provide accurate images that aid in the study of organs and tissues and how they work. The scans are safe with about the same risk as a common X-ray. Only tiny amounts of a short-lived radioactive material is used. It can help detect a wide variety of conditions, such as cancer, heart disease, arthritis and infection. Nuclear medicine services are provided by a mobile scanning service.
