X-rays,
MRI, CT Scans, Ultrasounds are all forms of imaging tools used to establish
a diagnoses, ascertain problems or document your progress.
Our facility makes use of X-rays, an energy form that is cast through the
body to project a shadow on special film. Because of the sensitivity to
radiation, special care is taken to minimize exposure. For that reason we
use:
-
High speed film
-
Lead shielding to protect sensitive body parts
-
Automatic electronic timing
-
Special filters to further reduce energy
-
State-of-the-art equipment
-
Regular inspection and maintenance of equipment
