At Fox Valley Imaging, our modern facility functions cutting-edge imaging machines and trained, experienced technicians who will serve to make your experience fast and comfortable. They are right there to respond any concerns you may have and also to operate the imaging machines to provide the best services available for you and your physician. Our services provide:.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique applied in radiology to visualize internal structures of the body in detail. MRI uses the ability of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body.
MRI scans are just one of the safest of entire imaging examinations. The procedure does not require the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media utilized through an MRI has really low incidence of side effects. Today’s MRI scans give your physician or specialist with a viewpoint of your body with almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center prides to provide our patients the latest technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner shows high definition images together with exceptional detail. Moreover the new technology cuts the scanning time in half, making 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 provide tomographic images or ’slices’ of certain areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in different medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, commonly called a CAT scan or CT Scan, provides today’s physicians with a fairly affordable imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects and also injuries. Using digital capture, a CT scan collects several X-ray images and creates a picture of the body from cross-sectional slices (or tomograms). Since the X-ray beams are captured from many different angles, there is even more information obtained and the absorption rate of the beams can provide important data regarding the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a similar 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 detect very understated distinctions in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique utilized for imagining 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 additional information of a greater quality to make use of for an effective diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging works with the newest 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 type of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used instead of ordinary photographic film. Benefits include time efficiency by means of bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer and enhance images.
Digital X-Ray is the new standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By using digital technology the scan time is lessened dramatically and the repeat exposure is minimized. Digital images could be stored on a CD and emailed with the patient. Not like the traditional x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and perform measurements electronically. That implies more details 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 having different energy levels are aimed at the patient’s bones. If soft tissue absorption is taken out, the BMD can be figured out from the absorption of each beam by bone. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the most commonly used and most carefully studied bone density measurement technology.
Echocardiography. Echocardiogram, commonly referred to cardiac echo or just an echo is a sonogram of the heart. (It is not shortened as ECG, which in medicine usually knowns as an electrocardiogram.) Echocardiography uses standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to produce images of the heart.
Echocardiography has been regularly used in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any believed or known heart diseases. It is one of the most widely used diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can provide a wealth of important info, featuring 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 other estimates of heart function including 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 get real-time moving photos of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest method, a fluoroscope is composed of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen among which a patient is placed. Although, modern fluoroscopes couple the screen to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera allowing the images to be captured and played on a screen.
