Our Services

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

Radiology West Services

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan is a medical imaging procedure that uses x-rays to obtain thin slice images of the body. CT is used to investigate a wide variety of medical conditions in the brain, spine, chest, abdomen, pelvis and extremities.  

Fluoroscopy

Radiology West Services

Fluoroscopy can be thought of as a video x-ray. This usually involves the administration of a contrast medium (dye) into the body part of interest. The most common contrast for stomach, colon and small intestine is barium.

Digital Mammogram

Radiology West Services

This is an x-ray examination of the breast from several angles, in order to detect cancer. The breast is placed between plates and compressed while an x-ray is taken. The films are then assessed by a radiologist before the patient leaves the department.

Ultrasound

Radiology West Services

Ultrasound utilizes energy close to that of sound waves to look at the size and structure of body organs. Ultrasound gel is placed on the area to be examined and a probe is moved over the area to obtain the images. This procedure is performed by both sonographers and radiologists.
