A cardiac MRI is an advanced imaging test that provides detailed pictures of the heart’s structure and function without using radiation.

It’s often used to:
- Evaluate the structure and function of the heart
- Diagnose cardiovascular conditions
- Aid in treatment planning for cardiovascular conditions
- Monitor the progression of certain heart conditions

Your doctor may recommend a cardiac MRI if you have unexplained chest pain, abnormal test results, or symptoms related to heart function.

A PET/CT scan combines two imaging technologies in one exam to give physicians a more complete view of tumors.

The CT scan shows detailed images of the body’s structure, while the PET scan highlights areas of increased metabolic activity, something often seen in cancer cells. Together, these images help doctors locate tumors, determine how far cancer may have spread, and evaluate how well treatment is working.

By combining both types of imaging, PET/CT provides more precise information for diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning.

In honor of Brain Awareness Week, we’re spotlighting the role of 3T MRI in brain imaging. This advanced technology produces clearer, higher-resolution images of the brain, allowing physicians to detect subtle abnormalities, monitor neurological conditions, and guide treatment with greater precision.

📊 Did you know? In 2022, less than half of women aged 50 and older without a diagnosis of osteoporosis (just 42.8%) reported ever having a DEXA scan — even though bone loss and fractures become more common with aging. Among women 65 and older, about 67.6% had received a scan, but many younger women at risk still aren’t being screened.

Early detection through a DEXA scan can identify low bone density before a fracture occurs, giving patients and providers a chance to take proactive steps to protect bone health. 🦴 Talk to your healthcare provider about whether screening is right for you.

Yes—depending on your risk factors.

While smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, it’s not the only one. Long-term exposure to secondhand smoke, radon, environmental pollutants, family history, or certain occupational hazards can also increase risk.
A low-dose Lung CT scan is a quick, noninvasive screening that can detect lung cancer at earlier, more treatable stages. If you have risk factors or concerns, a conversation with your doctor can help determine whether screening is right for you.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., and many people don't know they're at risk until symptoms appear.

A cardiac CT scan, including a calcium score test, can help detect plaque buildup in the coronary arteries early—often before you feel anything at all. This quick, noninvasive scan gives valuable insight into your heart health and can help guide next steps with your doctor.
This American Heart Month, take a proactive approach to protecting your heart. Early awareness can make all the difference.

We know the name can be off-putting, but nuclear medicine scans are safe, routine, and highly informative tools that help doctors see how your organs are working, not just how they look.

Here’s what to know:
- They use a very small amount of radioactive tracer, often less radiation than a CT scan.
- The tracer leaves your body naturally within hours to days.
- The scans are painless, noninvasive, and commonly used for the bones, thyroid, heart, and more.

These scans give doctors valuable insights and help detect conditions early.
