Ancillary Services
Services utilized to support your physicians comprehensive care.
CT
medical imaging procedure that uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the body, providing a more comprehensive view of internal organs, bones, and soft tissues compared to a standard X-ray by taking multiple pictures from different angles and combining them using a computer to generate a 3D image; it's often referred to as a "CAT scan"
XRAY
a medical technique that uses a small amount of ionizing radiation to create pictures of the inside of the body by passing X-rays through the body, where different tissues absorb varying levels of radiation, resulting in a visible image on a detector, allowing doctors to see internal structures like bones and organs, most commonly used to diagnose bone fractures and identify abnormalities in dense tissues
DEXA
is a medical imaging technique used to measure bone mineral density (BMD), essentially assessing the strength and thickness of bones, primarily used to diagnose osteoporosis and monitor its progression by detecting low bone mass and potential fracture risk
Ultrasound
a medical diagnostic technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal body structures, allowing doctors to visualize organs, tissues, and blood flow without the use of ionizing radiation, making it a safe and non-invasive procedure
ECHO
also known as an echocardiogram or cardiac ultrasound, is a noninvasive procedure that uses sound waves to create images of the heart. It's a common test that can help diagnose heart conditions.
Nuclear Medicine (Cardiac Stress Test)
a medical diagnostic technique that uses small amounts of radioactive material, called radiotracers, to visualize the function of organs and tissues within the body, allowing doctors to diagnose diseases by observing how these tracers accumulate in specific areas, often providing information that cannot be obtained through other imaging methods like X-rays or CT scans
Laboratory Services
The analysis of patient specimens like blood, urine, or tissue samples, conducted in a dedicated area within the office to provide diagnostic information to the physician, aiding in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of medical conditions by utilizing specialized equipment and trained staff to perform various tests like blood chemistry, urinalysis, and rapid strep tests.
