Children’s safety is our top priority. Our dedicated radiologists are trained in pediatric radiology and provide compassionate and personalized care to each of our patients. We use advanced imaging techniques and work closely with pediatric providers to determine the best way to diagnose a specific problem. We maintain the highest standards of care and patient safety. For exams that require radiation, special attention is given to minimize the radiation dose during a child’s exam without affecting image quality. We offer the latest in technology and equipment, and utilize a variety of imaging techniques, such as fluoroscopy, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and X-rays to accurately detect and diagnose disease.
