🚨 Did You Smoke for Years? You May Qualify for a FREE Lung Cancer Screening! 🚨

Lung cancer is the #1 cause of cancer-related deaths, but early detection can save lives. If you meet these criteria, you may qualify for a low-dose CT scan (LDCT) at no cost through Medicare or insurance:

✅ Age 50-80
✅ Smoked at least 20 pack-years (e.g., 1 pack/day for 20 years)
✅ Currently smoke or quit within the last 15 years

This quick, painless scan takes just minutes—but it could save your life. LDCT is a specialized CT scan that uses low-dose radiation to create detailed images of your lungs, detecting cancer earlier than a standard X-ray. Most insurances, including Medicare, fully cover this screening.

💙 Call your doctor today to ask about a referral! If you qualify, your screening could be covered at no cost.

📍 Novello Imaging in Traverse City offers LDCT lung screenings. Have questions? Call us at 231-714-4306 or visit NovelloImaging.org

Bones not feeling quite right?!?

X-rays can give your doc a quick look inside! 🩻 Think of them as a superpowered scanner that reveals hidden clues! The X-ray machine sends a tiny burst of energy through your body. Some "rays" bounce back and a special detector catches these "rays" and creates a picture.

Denser stuff like bones show up white on the image, while softer tissues like muscles appear gray. This helps doctors find any important findings they might need to fix!

👨‍🔬

FUN FACTS

Early adopter: X-rays were discovered in 1895, making them one of the oldest and most widely used medical imaging technologies
Accidental discovery: They were actually discovered by accident by German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen, who named them "X-rays" because the nature of the rays was unknown (X being the mathematical symbol for an unknown variable).

Superhero sight: Unlike our eyes, X-rays can see through flesh and soft tissue, revealing only bones on the image. This makes them perfect for spotting fractures and breaks.

Seeing through walls (almost!): Low-dose X-rays are sometimes used by security personnel to inspect luggage or packages for hidden objects.

Space explorers: X-ray technology is even used in astronomy to study the composition of distant stars and galaxies!

Ever seen those amazing pictures of babies before they're born? That's an ultrasound, also called a sonogram!👶

Unlike X-rays, it uses sound waves instead of radiation. 🔊Imagine tapping your tummy with your fingers – an ultrasound is like that, but with super powerful sound waves that bounce off your organs and tissues.

A computer then translates these echoes into a clear image,📸 especially useful for seeing soft tissues like muscles💪, organs, and even developing babies! Pretty neat, huh?



Fun facts

Bat-like vision: Ultrasound technology works similarly to how bats "see" in the dark. They emit sound waves and listen for echoes to navigate their surroundings.
More than just babies: While ultrasounds are famous for prenatal imaging, they're also used to examine many other organs and tissues like the heart, liver, kidneys, and even blood flow.

Ever wondered how doctors get those cool pictures of your insides without X-rays? That's an MRI! 🔍It uses powerful magnets and radio waves to create detailed images of your organs and tissues.

Imagine a long giant donut machine 🍩 - you lie down on a table that slides into the center of the ring. That's where the strongest magnetic field is, so that's why the part of your body they're looking at goes there. The machine picks up signals from your body and a computer turns those signals into a clear picture. 📸Pretty neat, huh? Our MRI machine is a wide bore, with a 4-foot-wide table, the MRI machine is open at both ends. #

Fun facts!

Not just for bones: MRIs can see soft tissues like muscles, ligaments, and even the brain in great detail. This makes them super useful for diagnosing a wider range of conditions.
Musical magic: The clicking and knocking sounds you hear during an MRI scan are actually caused by the radio waves interacting with the magnetic field. It's kind of like a magnetic symphony!
