At Fox Valley Imaging, our modernized facility functions cutting-edge imaging machines and qualified, experienced technicians who will help to make your experience quick and relaxed. They are right there to answer any concerns you may come with as well as to operate the imaging machines to give the finest services possible for you and your physician. Our services have:.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to see internal structures of the body in detailed information. MRI makes use of the property of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body.
MRI scans are one of the safest of all imaging examinations. The procedure does not necessarily need the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media used during an MRI has really low incidence of side effects. Today’s MRI scans give your physician or specialist with a viewpoint of your body from almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center is proud to offer our patients the newest technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner produces high definition images with exceptional detail. Aside from that the new technology reduces 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 method that utilizes computer-processed X-rays to generate tomographic images or ’slices’ of specific areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in different medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, popularly knowned as a CAT scan or CT Scan, gives today’s physicians with a reasonably affordable imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects and also injuries. Making use of digital capture, a CT scan gathers multiple X-ray images and constructs a picture of the body from cross-sectional slices (or tomograms). Since the X-ray beams are recorded from many different angles, there is much more information obtained and the absorption rate of the beams can give useful data pertaining to the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a same dosage of radiation as a regular X-ray machine, a CAT scan brings visible images with close to a 100 times much more clarity that can detect very understated differences in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging method operated for visualizing subcutaneous body structures consisting of tendons, muscles, joints, vessels and internal organs for possible pathology or lesions.
Digital 3-D and 4-D ultrasound produces pictures of soft tissue and internal organs by reflecting sound waves off the internal anatomic structures. In turn, our radiologists have more information of a greater quality to utilize for an effective diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging works with the most advanced technologies for digital ultrasound imaging to sustain the diagnostic process for physicians in numerous specialties including Obstetrics, Internal Medicines, Oncology, Gynecology, Orthopedics, Pediatrics, Urology and Cardiology.
Digital X-Rays. Digital radiography is a type of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used instead of typical photographic film. Advantages consist of time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transmit and improve images.
Digital X-Ray is the all-new 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 forwarded with the patient. Compared to the traditional x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and conduct measurements electronically. That means more information for your treating physician.
Bone Density Scanning. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is a means of measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Two X-ray beams having different energy levels are aimed at the patient’s bones. When 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 generally 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 shortened as ECG, which in medicine usually knowns as an electrocardiogram.) Echocardiography utilizes standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to form images of the heart.
Echocardiography has gotten consistently used in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any suspected or known heart diseases. It is one of the most widely utilized diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can give a wealth of useful information, consisting of the size and shape of the heart (internal chamber size quantification), pumping capacity, and the specific location and extent of any tissue damage. An Echocardiogram can also give physicians many 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 method that uses X-rays to acquire real-time moving images of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope is made up of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen between which a patient is placed. Although, current fluoroscopes couple the screen to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera allowing the images to be recorded and played on a monitor.
