Diagnostic Imaging Services in Central Valley (may vary by location)
- Biopsies – involve taking a sample of body tissue for an examination under a microscope.
- Bone densitometry (DEXA) – uses low-energy X-rays to help doctors scan a patient’s forearm, hip and lower back.
- Breast Imaging - ACR Breast Centers of Excellence, a trusted facility that has proven its commitment to delivering the highest quality, most coordinated, and patient-focused breast cancer care available, backed by rigorous standards and expert teams.
- 3D Tomosynthesis– uses special types of X-ray to create a detailed view of the breast and help doctors detect breast cancer.
- Stereotactic Breast Biopsy
- Breast Ultrasound
- Biopsy and Breast Cyst Aspiration
- CT/CTA scan – uses computers and rotating X-ray machines to capture cross-sectional images of various body parts and internal organs such as the brain, abdomen, chest, head, heart knee, shoulders and spine. A CT scan can also create images of the bones, blood vessels and soft tissues. A CTA uses CT scan and the injection of a dye to create images of blood vessels in the neck and head.
- CT Perfusion - uses CT scan and the injection of dye to create images of the brain tissue.
- Digital X-ray – a modern X-ray variant that uses 80% less radiation than the traditional X-ray in creating images of the body’s internal organs and bones.
- Fluoroscopy – like an X-ray movie or an X-ray in motion that captures moving body structures in detail to help diagnose various types of illnesses.
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) – uses an electromagnet, radio waves and a computer to produce detailed images of internal organs and body parts. Doctors commonly request an MRI to get a detailed view of the brain, abdomen, bones, spine, pelvis and joints.
- MR angiography – a detailed MRI of the blood vessels that helps diagnose diseases in the blood vessels supplying the brain, kidneys, legs and lungs.
- MR Perfusion - a detailed MRI of the brain tissue that helps diagnose diseases in the brain.
- Nuclear Medicine - shows how organs function using injected radioactive tracers, revealing biological processes (like blood flow or metabolism) with high sensitivity, while a CT scan uses external X-rays to show detailed anatomy (structures and shapes
- Positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan – uses both PET and CT in one machine. This type of exam gives doctors more information about the structure and function of cells and tissues in the body.
- Ultrasound – creates images of internal organs using high frequency sound waves. e offer various types of ultrasound such as abdominal, pelvic, obstetrical and vascular ultrasound.

Advanced Imaging Treatment Solutions
- Interventional Radiology and Neuro Interventional Radiology
- Chemoembolization – delivers cancer treatment directly to the tumor through the blood supply.
- Embolectomy - removal of blood clots, noninvasive treatment for acute ischemic stroke.
- Embolization – blocks abnormal blood flow or abnormal organ function, such as:
- Uterine artery embolization to treat fibroid tumors in the uterus.
- Arterial embolization of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms and brain bleeds.
- Radiofrequency ablation – enables more precise cancer treatment.
- Thrombolysis – helps dissolve blood clots.
