We perform thousands of procedures every month, which gives us the experience to provide you with the best possible care. Each case is meticulously reviewed by our physicians, and we strive to make your experience as pleasant as possible. All of our radiologists are listed below, along with their areas of interest and training.
- Emergency CareWhen seconds count, our highly trained specialists shine. Our radiologists quickly diagnose a multitude of medical problems, including life threatening conditions using tools such as X-rays and CT. The radiologists provide the emergency room doctors with the information they need in order to develop the best treatment plan.
- Electrocardiogram
- Pelvic Pain
- Internal Medicine
- Endoscopy
- Lung Cancer
- Thyroid
- UltrasoundBreast Ultrasound at the ProMedica Breast Care revolves around the high-end breast ultrasound machines. Breast ultrasound is useful in helping diagnose breast abnormalities revealed on a mammogram or detected during a physical exam.
- MRIOur team of dedicated Cardiac Radiologists is specialized in a variety of heart imaging techniques – MRI, CT and PET. Cardiac Imaging is used to diagnosis and facilitates management of many heart conditions. The images allow the evaluation of the size and condition of your heart chambers, valves, and blood vessels, as well as other structures that effect the operation of your heart, such as the pericardium. With this information, your cardiologist can plan your course of treatment or evaluate the progress of an existing treatment.

- MammographyAllows radiologists to examine breast tissue one layer at a time. Breast tomosynthesis is a new technology in the fight against breast Cancer, provides the radiologist with more information to find cancers that are otherwise buried in breast tissue and reduces the need for additional imaging. Traditional mammography is flat or two-dimensional (2D), the images can be hazy, and this makes it hard to detect early signs of cancer. Breast tomosynthesis, 3D mammography uses high-powered computing to convert digital breast images into a stack of very thin layers or “slices”—building what is essentially a “3-dimensional mammogram”. During the examination, the low dose X-ray arm sweeps in a slight arc over the breast, taking multiple breast images in just seconds. A computer then produces a 3D image of your breast tissue in one millimeter layers. Now the radiologist can see breast tissue detail in a way never before possible. Instead of viewing all the complexities of your breast tissue in a flat image, the radiologist can examine the tissue a millimeter at a time. The tissue is more visible.
- Computed TomographyOur eight musculoskeletal specialists are skilled in multiple imaging techniques to diagnose your problem, including traditional x-ray, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with attention to the skeleton, ligaments, muscles, tendons and joints. We are dedicated to offering the most advanced imaging techniques to offer unprecedented accuracy in diagnosis. For more information please visit RadiologyInfo.org.
- ChemotherapyWhen venous access is required for such procedures dialysis, long-term chemotherapy or antibiotic therapy, various types of central lines can be placed by your Interventional Radiologist. Similarly, when GI access is required as in patients with certain types of esophageal or gastric cancer, feeding tubes may be placed. www.sirweb.org/patients/gastrostomy/

- Cyst
- LesionsBreast Ultrasound does not use ionizing radiation found in x-rays, but high-frequency sounds waves to produce images. Ultrasound is employed to evaluate the composition of breast lesions, especially when an abnormality is not seen on a mammogram but only felt as a lump. We can also use ultrasound to further characterize lesions seen initially only on MRI. ( http://www.arrs.org/pressroom/info.cfm?prID=383 ). Two breast ultrasound certified technologist are available to assist the radiologist at the BCC.
