Diagnostic imaging services we offer
Our imaging specialists are here to provide you with a broad scope of services to make sure you get the most accurate diagnosis for your condition.
Computerized tomography angiography (CTA)
CTA is a type of test that combines a computerized tomography (CT) scan with a special dye to produce pictures of blood vessels and tissues in your body. Coronary CTA detects symptoms of coronary artery disease in patients who have had angioplasties, stents and bypass grafts.
Electroencephalogram
Electrophysiology involves monitoring the brain's electrical activity. Through an electroencephalogram, your doctor can diagnose seizures and assess brain function affected by certain conditions and diseases, such as a brain tumor or sleep disorder.
Interventional radiology
Interventional radiology is a specialized field that can function as a diagnostic tool, like other forms of imaging, but can also be used for treatment. In these cases, it allows less risk, pain and recovery time than other types of surgery.
Interventional radiology uses X-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and other imaging techniques to insert a catheter into the body, usually in an artery.
Cancer screenings
We partner with Sarah Cannon Cancer Institute to offer the most advanced screenings to diagnose various cancers. These exams include mammograms, CT scans, ultrasounds and MRIs. If you or a loved one receive a cancer diagnosis, we can connect you with the largest family of cancer specialists and care teams in Middle Tennessee for complete cancer care services.
