Computed tomography (CT) scans: These produce detailed images of the body, providing information about the internal organs, 骨头, and soft tissues and with computer generated assistance create cross-sectional (“slices”) images of body tissues and organs that are used to diagnose diseases and disorders.

骨密度(DEXA):  A Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) test is a bone density study used to determine whether or not you have osteoporosis or low bone mass.

超声心动图(回声): An ECHO uses sound waves to create a moving picture of your heart, and is much more detailed than a standard X-ray without any exposure to radiation. It is an 超声波 video used to diagnose various heart diseases by evaluating the heart’s size, 收缩强度, areas of muscle weakness, 阀的功能, and the accumulation of fluid.

Interventional radiology (IR): Interventional radiology uses specialized imaging techniques to guide cardiologists and radiologists in performing catheter based diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures. IR allows for minimally invasive treatment of nearly every organ system and combines multiple imaging modalities, 比如x射线, CT, 超声波, 和核磁共振.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): The wide bore MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to obtain images of your body in greater detail, which helps differentiate between normal and abnormal tissue.  
Nuclear medicine: It uses radio-pharmaceuticals to diagnose a variety of diseases. Nuclear Medicine scans available include bone, gallbladder/liver, heart, lung, renal, and thyroid.

Positron emission tomography (PET) scan: This is a nuclear medicine imaging technique which provides important information about many conditions affecting the heart, 大脑或其他器官. PET images are different than those from conventional imaging, 比如x射线, CT, 超声波, or MRI because they contain information about tissue function.

立体定向: A recent mammogram may show an abnormality or tiny calcium deposits, called micro calcifications, 在你的胸中. Only a biopsy can determine if that abnormality is cancerous or benign (noncancerous). Stereotactic biopsy is a diagnostic tool. It is a nonsurgical way to obtain the tissue sample needed to make a conclusive diagnosis. Two digital X-ray images of 乳房 tissue are taken at different angles. A computer uses the images to locate the abnormality and calculate precise coordinates. Then the computer guides the physician in placing the needle at the correct target area. A Stereotactic Breast Biopsy is the most accurate, efficient and minimally invasive biopsy technique today.

超声: These examinations are non-invasive and painless, and are performed with the use of a probe that emits sound waves, making an image from the reflection of the sound waves. Diagnostic 超声波 is performed for a wide variety of indications, 包括通用, 乳房, 血管, 还有回声超声波.

血管的研究: Vascular exams are used to evaluate your arteries and veins. With Doppler 超声波 we can examine the anatomy.

x射线: An X-ray (or radiographic) image is produced by sending a small amount of radiation through the body. An X-ray can be used to image 骨头, as well as organs and other tissues within the body.
