The King’s Daughters Radiology Department is one of the busiest areas of the medical center, performing more than 200,000 procedures each year. These include:
- MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
- CT scans (Computerized Tomography)
- PET scans (Positron Emission Tomography)
- X-rays
- Nuclear Medicine
- Mammography
- Ultrasound
These tests are performed for outpatients and inpatients, using advanced equipment for the clearest, most accurate images. Radiology tests provide highly detailed views of different areas of the body to help make diagnoses and track treatment progress. Most radiology tests are minimally invasive or noninvasive and are completed quickly. Test results are read by radiologists, who interpret them for referring physicians and other healthcare practitioners.
