Fluoroscopic Procedures / Barium Studies

Fluoroscopic procedures are performed by a radiologist who uses real time xray imaging to make images of a part of your body in various positions, often after you drink some contrast material or have some contrast infused into your rectum or bladder. The procedures are generally painless and take anywhere from 30 to 120 minutes. Fluoroscopy is performed in the main department on CMP4.

Computed Tomography (CT) Scan

CT scan technology has advanced over the years and is an increasingly powerful and effective tool in the diagnosis and treatment of countless injuries and diseases. A CT scan uses special X-ray equipment to produce multiple images or pictures of the inside of the body and a computer to join them together in cross-sectional and three dimensional views of the area being studied. During the scan, a thin beam of X-ray is focused on a specific part of your body.
