Advanced Imaging and Diagnostics Center
The 64-slice CT Scanner at the Advanced Imaging and Diagnostics Center at Harbour View isn’t the only reason growing numbers of doctors and patients in southeastern Virginia are choosing the center for their testing needs.
The coordination of diagnostics with Harbour View’s services and physicians is a big plus. Things that work together, work better for your health. For instance - digital mammography staff are recently qualified in advanced diagnostic techniques, underscoring the Bon Secours Millie Lancaster Women’s Center’s commitment to breast health.
And of course, there is the technology.
State-of-the-art screening and diagnostic procedures are made possible by innovations in technology.These tools provide physicians the clearest possible picture of your health.
MRI: The 1.5 tesla MRI unit provides radiologists with detailed images to help provide your physician with the best information to treat your medical condition. The Imaging Center’s open bore MRI lets us examine larger patients and those with anxiety more comfortably.
CT Scan: The 64-slice CT scanner has revolutionized imaging with its ability to capture images of the body’s fast-moving, dynamic processes. In fact, it can scan the whole human body in ten seconds. Soon, it will be used to perform non-invasive cardiac CT angiography, allowing Hampton Roads cardiologists to see into the deepest recesses of a patient’s heart as the device creates a three-dimensional picture.
Ultrasound: 3-D ultrasound with gynecology, cardiology and cancer detection. We also offer Peripheral Vascular Lab (PVL) studies. The advances in the Ultrasound lab are particularly valuable to Bon Secours breast health program.
Diagnostic X-ray: Our X-ray equipment delivers exceptional image quality. Fluoroscopic imaging – real-time, movingX-rays – give us the ability to examine the upper digestive system and the lower colon.
In addition to the Imaging technology found in our labs, Harbour View also offers first-rate laboratory services and additional colorectal testing in the Endoscopy Center.
