At Fox Valley Imaging, our innovative facility features cutting-edge imaging machines and trained, experienced technicians who will help to make your experience fast and relaxed. They are right there to respond any questions you may come with as well as to operate the imaging machines to provide 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 applied in radiology to see internal structures of the body in detailed information. MRI uses the ability of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body.
MRI scans are one of the safest of all imaging examinations. The procedure does not need the use of ionizing radiation, and the contrast media used through an MRI has really low incidence of side effects. Nowadays’s MRI scans produce your physician or specialist with a view of your body from almost any plane. Fox Valley Imaging Center is proud to provide our patients the latest technology in MRI scanning. Our MRI scanner generates high definition images together with exceptional detail. Aside from that the new technology reduces the scanning time in half, making 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 technique 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 purposes in different medical disciplines.
Computed Axial Tomography, commonly called a CAT scan or CT Scan, gives today’s physicians with a relatively inexpensive imaging tool for the diagnosis of many different diseases, defects and also injuries. Using 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 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 close to a 100 times even more clarity that can identify very understated distinctions in your body tissue.
Ultrasound. Diagnostic sonography (ultrasonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used 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 creates pictures of soft tissue and internal organs by reflecting sound waves off the internal anatomic structures. Consequently, our radiologists have a lot more information of a better quality to make use of for a successful diagnosis. Fox Valley Imaging utilizes the most up-to-date technologies for digital ultrasound imaging to provide the diagnostic process for physicians in numerous specialties including Obstetrics, Internal Medicines, Oncology, Gynecology, Orthopedics, Pediatrics, Urology and Cardiology.
Digital X-Rays. Digital radiography is a type of X-ray imaging, where digital X-ray sensors are utilized instead of typical photographic film. Advantages include time efficiency by means of bypassing chemical processing and the ability to digitally transfer and improve images.
Digital X-Ray is the all-new standard in Diagnostic Imaging. By operating digital technology the scan time is decreased dramatically and the repeat exposure is minimized. Digital images could be saved on a CD and transferred with the patient. Contrary to the traditional x-ray we are able to manipulate the images and perform measurements electronically. That signifies 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. If soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, the BMD can be identified from the absorption of each beam by bone. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the most commonly 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 describes an electrocardiogram.) Echocardiography uses standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to develop 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 commonly used diagnostic tests in cardiology. It can supply a wealth of important info, 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 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 method 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 method, a fluoroscope consists of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen among which a patient is placed. Although, current 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.
