- Emergency CareFOLLOW-UP INFORMATION FOR THE PATIENT: All the “x-ray dye” will probably have been excreted through your bladder prior to your leaving our office. There should be no latent affect from the injection. However, although they are extremely rare, delayed reactions have been documented. If you experience any difficulty breathing, hives, nausea, irritation at the injection site or other unexplained discomforts, please contact our nurse immediately (569-9745). If any of these conditions occur after office hours, you should go to the Emergency Room. Explain that you had x-rays of your kidneys and were injected with 100 cc’s of non-ionic Isovue contrast material.
- UltrasoundThe only ultrasound that has the coherent image formation, which is the ability to produce twice the information in half the time utilizing full echo formation without additional non-image fillers. The Sequoia also has other advanced and exclusive features that offers an unprecedented amount of new information. With this powerful tool we can now routinely see anatomy and physiology not seen with conventional ultrasound. the Acuson Sequoia 512 enables more accurate and consistent visualization of subtle tissue contrast differences and remarkable blood flow assessment.
- MRIOpen MRI scanners have been developed for people who are anxious or obese or for examination of small parts of the body, such as the extremities (knee, shoulder).
- RadiologyThe field of radiology was originally oriented on using X-ray radiation for imaging of the body. Current radiology is not limited to X-rays; it also uses magnetic fields, radiation and sound waves. Radiology can be used both for diagnostic purposes, as well as a form of treatment for some diseases.
- X-Rays
- Computed TomographyPROCEDURE EXPLAINED: The patient lies on his/her stomach on the x-ray table. Following preliminary ‘scout’ films of the specific area of the spine to be examined, the Radiologist will cleanse the area over the spine and insert a needle into the spinal column under fluoroscopic control. A tube will be attached to the needle through which the x-ray dye will be injected into the spinal fluid. X-rays are then taken of the area of concern and the patient will have a CT Scan of the spine before being allowed to leave the office. Our Nurse will give the patient specific instructions for at-home care following the exam.
