The Radiology and Imaging Department consists of seven
divisions, providing a full range of services at both AnMed Health
campuses. The department is a great place for radiological professionals.
With the installation of PACS, or Picture Archiving Communications System,
nearly every area of Radiology captures images digitally and shares them
electronically throughout AnMed Health, giving physicians and staff
instant access to images even at remote locations. This innovative
technology has brought representatives from numerous hospitals and medical
centers to AnMed Health in an effort to duplicate the success of our PACS
program. |

The Conventional Radiology
Department Conventional Radiology performs plain film radiography,
fluoroscopic gastrointestinal studies, intravenous pyelography, arthrography and
myelography. Radiographic equipment includes digital fluoroscopy units,
multifunctional diagnostic radiography units with tomography and dedicated chest
units. Radiographic suites are also located in the Emergency and Surgical
departments. Mobile X-rays and fluoroscopy units are available for bedside
examinations.
The Magnetic Resonance Imaging Department The AnMed
Health North Campus uses a GE 1.5 T Horizon and a new GE Ovation open magnet for
imaging, while AnMed Health Medical Center uses a GE 1.0 T Horizon for excellent
image quality and scanning speed.
The Medical Sonics Department The Medical Sonics
Department uses sophisticated ultrasound systems, including Acuson and GE
Imaging-both with color flow and Doppler capabilities-to perform routine
sonography, vascular duplex Doppler imaging with color flow, breast sonography,
ultrasound guided biopsy, small-parts evaluation and uterine sonohysterograms
and other general, obstetrical and urological procedures. The angiography suite
features an open-system and two high-field strength scanners.
The Computerized Tomography Department The Computerized
Tomography Department uses GE Light Speed and CTi systems at AnMed Health
Medical Center to produce optimum scans in minimal time, while the AnMed Health
North Campus uses a GE Light Speed system. Interpreting physicians in this area
include radiologists and neurologists.
Women's Diagnostics Women's Diagnostics was the first
facility in the state to have an all-digital mammography system.
Mammography-interpreting specialists and registered technologists provide
diagnostics and interventional services, following state, federal and American
College of Radiology (ACR) guidelines. The Diagnostic Centereatures three
digital mammography machines, a breast MRI and MRI-guided biopsy technology.
The Nuclear Medicine Department The Nuclear Medicine
Department features the latest technology in nuclear imaging. The AnMed Health
Cancer Center uses an ADAC camera for imaging. There nuclear medicine
specialists perform bone scans and total body iodine scans, plus new
lymphoscintigraphy, sentinel node localization and Positron Emission Tomography
(PET).
AnMed Health Medical Center diagnostic imaging equipment includes
Picker SPECT 3000 and 2000 systems, a single-head large-field camera and a
mobile imaging camera. An aggressive quality-assurance program ensures state and
federal regulatory compliance.
The Radiologic Technology Program The Radiologic
Technology Program, AnMed Health's two-year, accredited, hospital-based program,
trains students to operate today's most modern multiple-imaging
modalities-preparing them to become the skilled radiologic technologists of
tomorrow. Click here to learn
