Procedures

More details in Health Resources .

Barium Swallow  This Xray can help diagnose swallowing or gastrointestinal problems.  Patients swallow a barium solution to make abnormalities more visible on Xray.

Bone Density Screening  This low-energy Xray helps diagnose osteoporosis. Scans of the lower back, hip, or forearm measure the amount of calcium in bones.

Breast Biopsy (Stereotactic)  This procedure uses Xrays to find breast tissue to be removed for study under a microscope. It may prevent the need for an open, surgical biopsy. .

Digital Mammography  An advanced technology, digital mammograms have proven more effective in screening women over 50 and those with dense breasts.  Digital mammograms also are more portable and easily transmitted.  A computer-aided detection  (CAD)  system adds more capabilities to detect abnormalities.

Mammography  Xrays of the breast are important tools to detect breast cancer as early as possible. Ê

CT Scans  Computed tomography combines Xrays and computer scans. The result is a detailed picture that can show problems with soft tissues, organs and bones.

Fluoroscopy  This Xray obtains real-time images of the body's internal structures.  In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists of an Xray source and fluorescent screen.

General X-rays  An Xray uses a small amount of radiation to create images of bones and organs.

Interventional Radiology  A radiology subspecialty in which minimally invasive procedures are performed using image guidance to diagnose or treat illness. 

MRI Magnetic resonance imaging provides detailed pictures of the inside of the body using strong magnets and radio wave.

Nuclear Medicine   A nuclear medicine scan uses a small amount of radioactive material and a special camera to create pictures of organs and bones.

Ultrasound  This imaging test uses sound waves to form pictures of the body's interior.
