At Fox Valley Imaging, our up-to-date facility features cutting-edge imaging machines and trained, experienced technicians who will serve to make your experience fast and comfortable. They are there to respond to any questions you may have as well as to operate the imaging machines to give the best services possible for you and your physician. Our services provide:.
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 utilizes the property of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body.
MRI scans are just one of the safest of all imaging examinations. The process does not need the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media utilized through an MRI has really low incidence of negative effects. Today’s MRI scans give your physician or specialist with a viewpoint of your body from almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center prides to offer our patients the most up-to-date technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner generates high definition images with exceptional detail. Moreover the new technology trims 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 utilizes computer-processed X-rays to provide tomographic images or ’slices’ of particular areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are used for diagnostic and therapeutic uses in different medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, widely called a CAT scan or CT Scan, gives today’s physicians with a fairly inexpensive 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 constructs a picture of the body from cross-sectional slices (or tomograms). Considering the X-ray beams are captured from many different angles, there is even more information found and the absorption rate of the beams can provide valuable data pertaining to the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a same dosage of radiation as an ordinary X-ray machine, a CAT scan gives visible images with near to a 100 times much more clarity that can identify very understated distinctions in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging method operated for picturing subcutaneous body structures consisting of tendons, muscles, joints, vessels and internal organs for possible pathology or lesions.
Digital 3-D and 4-D ultrasound develops 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 make use of for a successful diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging works with the most advanced technologies for digital ultrasound imaging to provide 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 form of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used rather than typical photographic film. Advantages such as time efficiency by means of bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally move and enhance images.
Digital X-Ray is the latest standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By using digital technology the scan time is reduced dramatically and the repeat exposure is minimized. Digital images could be stored on a CD and sent with the patient. Not like the common x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and execute measurements electronically. That implies more details 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 with different energy levels are intendeded for the patient’s bones. When 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, often referred to cardiac echo or simply an echo is a sonogram of the heart. (It is not abbreviated as ECG, which in medicine commonly refers to an electrocardiogram.) Echocardiography uses standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to produce images of the heart.
Echocardiography has been regularly utilized in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any speculated or known heart diseases. It is one of the most widely used diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can supply a wealth of helpful 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 many 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 technique that uses X-rays to get real-time moving photos of the internal structures of a patient with 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 enabling the images for being recorded and played on a monitor.
