• Identifies subtle lesions that may be missed by the human eye
• Automatically measures prostate volume
• Highlights suspicious areas for more confident interpretation

This means no changes to your scan experience, but a smarter, more data-driven analysis behind the scenes—providing your physician with deeper insights for earlier and more accurate diagnosis.

With Cardiac MRI, we can actually visualize a beating heart in real-time—evaluating how well it pumps, identifying damage, and measuring blood flow with remarkable precision.
Unlike CT scans or X-rays, MRI uses no radiation and excels in soft tissue contrast, making it ideal for:
🔍 Visualizing the heart muscle
🔍 Checking for scarring or fibrosis
🔍 Measuring chamber volumes and ejection fraction
This level of detail helps cardiologists tailor treatment to each patient’s specific needs.

🔊 MRI Safety Week is here! 🔊
At Tower Saint John’s Imaging, we’re spotlighting the importance of hearing protection during MRI scans — a crucial part of patient and staff safety.
🎧 Quick Facts:
MRI machines can generate noise levels up to 130 dB — that’s jet engine loud.
Hearing damage can begin at 85 dB, with levels over 120 dB posing immediate risk.
Proper hearing protection can reduce that exposure by as much as 28–30 dB(A).
🛡️ Whether you’re undergoing an MRI or working in the scan room, protecting your hearing matters.
Let’s stay informed and stay safe — this week and every week.

🎗️ Early Detection Saves Lives: The Key to Better Breast Cancer Outcomes 💖
Did you know? Detecting breast cancer early can significantly improve surgical outcomes and increase survival rates. When diagnosed in its early stages, treatment is often less invasive and more effective, giving patients the best chance for a full recovery.
🔍 Why Early Detection Matters:
✔ Higher survival rates – Early-stage breast cancer has a 5-year survival rate of over 90%
✔ Less aggressive treatment – Smaller tumors may require less extensive surgery and lower-dose therapies
✔ Better surgical outcomes – Surgeons can more precisely remove cancer while preserving healthy tissue
💡 How Can You Stay Proactive?
✅ Schedule regular mammograms – The gold standard for early breast cancer detection
✅ Perform monthly self-exams – Know your body and report any changes to your doctor
✅ Prioritize your health – If you have a family history, ask about additional screening options
At Tower Saint John’s Imaging, we offer advanced 3D mammography and breast imaging services to help detect cancer at its earliest, most treatable stage.

MRI vs. CT Scan: What’s the Difference?

When your doctor orders an imaging test, you might wonder: MRI or CT scan? Here’s how these two essential technologies compare:
🔹 CT Scan (Computed Tomography)
✔ Uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images
✔ Best for bones, lungs, and detecting internal bleeding
✔ Fast and widely available – often used in emergency situations
✔ Commonly used for fractures, tumors, and lung conditions
🔹 MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
✔ Uses strong magnets and radio waves instead of radiation
✔ Ideal for soft tissues, nerves, and the brain
✔ Provides highly detailed images but takes longer than a CT scan
✔ Commonly used for brain disorders, spinal issues, and joint injuries

Which One Do You Need? 🤷‍♂️
Your doctor will recommend the right scan based on your symptoms and medical condition. Need advanced imaging? Tower Saint John’s Imaging offers both MRI and CT scans with expert radiologists to ensure accurate diagnoses.

🧠 Amyloid PET Scan: A Game-Changer in Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis 🧠

Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease is key to better management and care. Amyloid PET scans are revolutionizing how we assess cognitive decline by allowing doctors to visualize amyloid plaque buildup in the brain—one of the primary indicators of Alzheimer’s.
🔬 What is an Amyloid PET Scan?
An Amyloid PET scan uses a specialized tracer to detect abnormal protein deposits in the brain, helping differentiate Alzheimer’s from other memory-related conditions.

💡 Why is it Important?
✅ Earlier and more accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s
✅ Helps distinguish Alzheimer’s from other dementias
✅ Aids in personalized treatment planning and clinical trials
At Tower Saint John’s Imaging, we are committed to providing state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging to support neurological health. Advanced imaging technologies like Amyloid PET scans offer crucial insights for early detection, helping patients and their families navigate their healthcare journey with confidence.
