More than 30 imaging rooms in six unique suites
Entirely designed for the comfort, convenience and privacy of patients and their families, six distinct suites offer more than 30 imaging rooms for CT scans, MRIs, X-rays, ultrasounds, nuclear medicine, SPECT/CT nuclear medicine and non-invasive cardio-pulmonary imaging.
And, additional imaging equipment is located in the Emergency Department—so emergency patients don’t have to be moved to a different floor of the hospital for an X-ray, CT scan or ultrasound.
