Imaging Services

X-ray Imaging

X-ray is one of the most commonly used imaging techniques, offering quick, non-invasive insights into your bones, organs, and tissues. Whether you need a routine chest X-ray, bone X-ray to assess fractures, or imaging for more complex medical concerns, X-ray imaging provides clear, fast results.

At Resurrection Medical Center, our X-ray services are used to:

• Diagnose fractures, sprains, and joint dislocations

• Detect signs of lung disease, such as pneumonia or lung cancer

• Identify heart and chest conditions

• Evaluate abdominal issues, including gastrointestinal problems

• Assess spinal health and identify bone-related issues

Our team ensures clear and precise results with minimal radiation exposure, always prioritizing patient safety.

Ultrasound Imaging

Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of soft tissues, organs, and blood vessels inside the body. Ultrasound is widely used due to its safety (no radiation exposure) and its ability to produce detailed images.

Common uses of ultrasound include:

• Pregnancy ultrasounds for monitoring fetal development

• Abdominal ultrasound to assess organs like the liver, gallbladder, and kidneys

• Cardiac ultrasound (echocardiogram) for heart evaluation

• Musculoskeletal ultrasound to assess soft tissue injuries, including tendons and ligaments

• Vascular ultrasound to detect blood flow issues and blockages

• Thyroid and pelvic ultrasound for routine screening and diagnosis

At Resurrection Medical Center, our experienced technicians use advanced ultrasound equipment to ensure high-quality images for your doctor to assess your condition accurately.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET)

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a powerful imaging technique that allows healthcare providers to visualize the metabolic activity of tissues and organs. It’s an essential tool for diagnosing and monitoring various diseases, including cancer, heart disease, and neurological conditions.

At Resurrection Medical Center, PET scans are used to:

• Detect and monitor cancer by observing metabolic activity in cancer cells

• Evaluate heart disease and assess the health of the heart muscle

• Diagnose neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and epilepsy

• Assess inflammation and infection in various parts of the body

Our state-of-the-art PET technology provides detailed images at the cellular level, allowing for precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

Other Imaging Services Available:

• CT (Computed Tomography) Scans
  CT scans combine X-ray technology with computer processing to produce detailed cross-sectional images of the body. CT is often used for diagnosing conditions such as cancer, internal injuries, and neurological disorders.

• MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
  MRI uses powerful magnets and radio waves to produce detailed images of soft tissues, joints, and organs. It’s commonly used to assess conditions affecting the brain, spine, muscles, and joints.

• Mammography
  Mammography is a specific X-ray technique used to detect early signs of breast cancer. Early detection through regular screenings can help improve treatment outcomes.

• Fluoroscopy
  Fluoroscopy provides real-time X-ray imaging, often used for evaluating barium swallow tests, joint injections, or catheter placements. It’s commonly used in procedures that require continuous imaging guidance.
