Our licensed and certified team of technologists and Radiologist work together to provide physicians with critical medical information useful in diagnosing and treating disease and illness.

The new DI Center includes diagnostic radiology, CT, MRI, nuclear medicine and ultrasound. In addition, our state licensed mammography program provides a follow-up reminder and monitoring service. The PACS (picture archiving communication system) allows images to be transferred via the internet to the Radiologist and other physicians. Together these services eliminate the need to refer patients out of the area for anything other than specialized services provided by large medical centers.
