Diagnostic Radiology
Diagnostic radiology uses imaging technology to diagnose patients and recommend treatment options.
Medical Imaging at Wellstar
Wellstar imaging uses leading technology to ensure accurate, reliable answers that lead to the most effective treatment. X-ray is just one of many types of non-invasive imaging techniques used by Wellstar diagnostic radiologists to discover the cause of illness and injury or monitor a patient’s condition. These specially trained doctors also use ultrasound, CT, MRI and nuclear medicine scans to obtain high-quality images of the inside of the body. Diagnostic radiology is also an effective way to screen for cancer of the breast and lungs.
Our team-focused diagnostic radiologists partner with other physicians and surgeons to understand and treat the cause of illness and relieve your symptoms. Some diagnostic tests require patients to ingest a compound to produce a clear image, others require anesthesia and a scope.
