At Fox Valley Imaging, our innovative facility functions cutting-edge imaging machines and trained, experienced technicians who will help to make your experience quick and relaxed. They are right there to answer any concerns you may have as well as to operate the imaging machines to give the finest services possible for you and your physician. Our services include:.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging method used in radiology to see internal structures of the body in detailed information. MRI utilizes the property of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body.
MRI scans are one of the safest of entire imaging examinations. The process does not require the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media utilized during an MRI has really low incidence of side effects. Today’s MRI scans provide your physician or specialist with a view of your body with almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center is proud to provide our patients the latest technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner generates high definition images having exceptional detail. Moreover the new technology cuts the scanning time in half, establishing the experience a lot more tolerable.
CT (Computed Tomography). X-ray computed tomography, also computed tomography (CT scan) or computed axial tomography(CAT scan), is a medical imaging procedure that uses computer-processed X-rays to provide tomographic images or ’slices’ of specific areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are utilized for diagnostic and therapeutic functions in various medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, popularly knowned as a CAT scan or CT Scan, gives today’s physicians with a relatively affordable imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects and also injuries. Using digital capture, a CT scan collects multiple X-ray images and constructs an image of the body from cross-sectional slices (or tomograms). Considering the X-ray beams are recorded from many different angles, there is even more details found and the absorption rate of the beams can provide useful data regarding the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a same dosage of radiation as a normal X-ray machine, a CAT scan brings visible images with near to a 100 times more clarity that can identify very subtle distinctions in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging method used for imagining subcutaneous body structures including tendons, muscles, joints, vessels and internal organs for possible pathology or lesions.
Digital 3-D and 4-D ultrasound develops images of soft tissue and internal organs by reflecting sound waves off the internal anatomic structures. In turn, our radiologists have additional information of a better quality to use for a successful diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging uses the latest technologies for digital ultrasound imaging to support the diagnostic process for physicians in several specialties including Obstetrics, Internal Medicines, Oncology, Gynecology, Orthopedics, Pediatrics, Urology and Cardiology.
Digital X-Rays. Digital radiography is a kind of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used instead of standard photographic film. Benefits such as time efficiency by means of bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transmit and improve images.
Digital X-Ray is the modern standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By utilizing digital technology the scan time is decreased dramatically and the repeat exposure is minimized. Digital images could be stored on a CD and sent with the patient. Unlike the regular x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and do measurements electronically. That implies more info for your treating physician.
Bone Density Scanning. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is a way of measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Two X-ray beams with different energy levels are intendeded for the patient’s bones. If soft tissue absorption is taken out, the BMD can be identified from the absorption of each beam by bone. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the most widely used and most thoroughly examined bone density measurement technology.
Echocardiography. Echocardiogram, commonly referred to cardiac echo or simply an echo is a sonogram of the heart. (It is not abbreviated as ECG, which in medicine commonly describes an electrocardiogram.) Echocardiography uses standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to develop images of the heart.
Echocardiography has become regularly used in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any considered or known heart diseases. It is one of the most widely used diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can bring a wealth of useful info, consisting of the size and shape of the heart (internal chamber size quantification), pumping capacity, and the location and extent of any tissue damage. An Echocardiogram can also provide physicians other estimates of heart function like a calculation of the cardiac output, ejection fraction, and diastolic function (how well the heart relaxes).
Video Fluoroscopy. Fluoroscopy is an imaging technique that uses X-rays to acquire real-time moving photos of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen among which a patient is placed. Although, latest fluoroscopes couple the screen to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera letting the images to be recorded and played on a monitor.
