At Fox Valley Imaging, our innovative facility functions cutting-edge imaging machines and qualified, experienced technicians who will assist to make your experience quick and comfortable. They are there to answer any concerns you may come with as well as to operate the imaging machines to give 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 picture internal structures of the body in detailed information. MRI utilizes the ability 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 necessarily need the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media utilized through an MRI has very low incidence of side effects. Today’s MRI scans produce your physician or specialist with a view of your body with almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center prides to provide our patients the most up-to-date technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner produces 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 method that utilizes computer-processed X-rays to provide tomographic images or ’slices’ of particular areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are utilized for diagnostic and therapeutic functions in different medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, popularly called a CAT scan or CT Scan, gives today’s physicians with a reasonably inexpensive imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects and injuries. Making use of digital capture, a CT scan gathers several X-ray images and develops an image of the body from cross-sectional slices (or tomograms). Since the X-ray beams are recorded from many different angles, there is even more information obtained and the absorption rate of the beams can provide important data pertaining to the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a similar dosage of radiation as a normal X-ray machine, a CAT scan gives visible images with close to a 100 times more clarity that can identify very understated distinctions in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging method utilized 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 creates images of soft tissue and internal organs by reflecting sound waves off the internal anatomic structures. In turn, our radiologists have a lot more information of a better quality to utilize for an effective diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging utilizes the newest technologies for digital ultrasound imaging to support the diagnostic process for physicians in many 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 instead of common photographic film. Advantages such as time efficiency through bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transmit and enhance images.
Digital X-Ray is the new standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By using 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. Not like the typical x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and conduct measurements electronically. That signifies more info for your treating physician.
Bone Density Scanning. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is a method of measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Two X-ray beams with different energy levels are aimed at the patient’s bones. If soft tissue absorption is taken out, the BMD can be determined from the absorption of each beam by bone. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the most widely used and most carefully examined 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 utilizes standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to create images of the heart.
Echocardiography has been consistently used in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any considered or known heart diseases. It is one of the most widely utilized diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can provide a wealth of helpful information, 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 provide 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 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 among which a patient is placed. Although, modern fluoroscopes couple the screen to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera letting the images for being recorded and played on a monitor.
