Radiology, also known as imaging services, is an area of medicine that enables physicians to "see" inside the human body in order to diagnose and monitor disease. The first step in addressing medical concerns, whether it's a broken bone, a spinal injury or a suspected tumor, is to find its precise location within the body, accurately measure it and provide a "roadmap" that guides physicians during treatment.
Whether it's preventing or treating an illness, imaging servicess erves as a critical healthcare tool. The staff of Regional West's imaging services includes board certified radiologists, registered radiologic technologists, registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, technical aides and administrative staff. Working within their respective areas, the staff performs and interprets exams in a timely manner, providing physicians and their patients with accurate results as quickly as possible.
At Regional West, we are able to ensure that our patients receive the diagnostic testing they need without traveling too far from home, combining the highest level of technology with the convenience of a community hospital. The scope of our services include: Multi-slice computed tomography (CT) scans, 1.5 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diagnostic X-ray, positron emission tomography (PET) services, ultrasound, mammography, nuclear medicine, interventional radiology and bone density testing.
