However, where your physician needs additional clarity on an internal situation, medical imaging will provide valuable insight into the happenings. Here at Bellagio Family Medical, we offer patient-oriented medical imaging to help your health care provider diagnose your condition, understand your symptoms, and determine the right course of action. You should not be left in the dark when you need a scan. We tell you why it is necessary and what the results will do for you.
Medical imaging provides your health care professional with information that is not usually provided by a physical exam. The kind of medical imaging needed will determine what the doctor wants to see – organs, tissues, blood flow, injuries, and more.
Some important advantages include:
The process of medical imaging is done by using varied techniques for obtaining images or any type of visual data from within the body. This depends on your symptoms, medical history, and the body part your doctor wants to examine.
Medical imaging can be done by using sound waves as well as X-rays and medical technology in general.
The use of diagnostic ultrasound involves the generation of images using sound waves. Ionizing radiation is not required, hence it is possible to perform ultrasound examinations on various regions of the body.
In Bellagio Family Medical, diagnostic ultrasounds may be performed when more information is needed regarding a particular health issue.
The test that you require will depend on the purpose for the visit. Your healthcare practitioner will be able to determine the right imaging test and whether any preparation is required.
Medical imaging can assist in diagnosing various symptoms and health conditions. The correct test will depend on your symptoms, physical exam, health history, and area being imaged.
