At Fox Valley Imaging, our up-to-date facility features cutting-edge imaging machines and trained, experienced technicians who will help to make your experience fast and comfortable. They are there to respond to any concerns you may have and also to operate the imaging machines to give the finest services possible for you and your physician. Our services have:.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging method used in radiology to see 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 just one of the safest of all imaging examinations. The procedure does not necessarily require the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media used 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 is proud to provide our patients the newest technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner generates high definition images together with exceptional detail. Aside from that 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 uses computer-processed X-rays to develop tomographic images or ’slices’ of specific areas of the body. These cross-sectional images are used for diagnostic and therapeutic uses in various medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, commonly called a CAT scan or CT Scan, provides today’s physicians with a reasonably affordable imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects as well as 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 much more details found and the absorption rate of the beams can give useful data regarding the thickness of tissue and the condition of bones. Using a same dosage of radiation as an ordinary X-ray machine, a CAT scan provides 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 visualizing 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 more information of a greater quality to make use of for a successful diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging uses the most advanced 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 kind of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are used rather than regular photographic film. Advantages such as time efficiency by means of bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transmit and enhance images.
Digital X-Ray is the modern standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By operating digital technology the scan time is lessened dramatically and the repeat exposure is minimized. Digital images could be saved on a CD and forwarded with the patient. Not like the typical x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and conduct measurements electronically. That means more details 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 having different energy levels are intendeded for the patient’s bones. When soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, the BMD can be figured out from the absorption of each beam by bone. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the most widely utilized and most thoroughly examined bone density measurement technology.
Echocardiography. Echocardiogram, usually 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 form images of the heart.
Echocardiography has become regularly used in the diagnosis, management, and follow-up of patients with any suspected or known heart diseases. It is one of the most commonly used diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can bring a wealth of helpful information, consisting of the size and shape of the heart (internal chamber size quantification), pumping capacity, and the location and extent of any tissue damage. An Echocardiogram can also give physicians many other estimates of heart function like 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 obtain real-time moving images of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists 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 to be recorded and played on a screen.
