Mission statement

The mission of Health Village Imaging is to improve the quality of life in our community by providing comprehensive diagnostic services.

State-of -the-art Technology

Diagnostic Radiology
Digital X-ray system produces images of the skeletal system to detect fracture, arthritis, and displacement. X-ray is also used to detect various abnormalities in the chest or lungs. Fluoroscopy allows the radiologist to watch X-ray images “live” on a TV monitor. Fluoroscopy is often used to observe the digestive tract (Upper GI Series - Barium Swallow, Lower GI Series - Barium Enema or “BE”).

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Produces high-quality images of the brain, spine, joints and other organs to determine the severity of patient injuries and conditions. MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiography) is used to visualize blood flow in arteries and veins in different parts of the body.

Nuclear Medicine
Uses radioisotopes (radioactive pharmaceuticals) to study all systems of the body. Emphasis is on the functioning of organ systems, including the endocrine system, respiratory and cardiac system, digestive system, gall bladder, skeleton system and central nervous system. Also used to evaluate sources of infection and to localize tumors in the body.

PET/CT
PET/CT offers the very latest technology in cancer diagnosis and care. It combines the benefits of Positron Emission Tomography (PET), which can detect changes in cellular structure at the molecular level, and Computed Tomography (CT), which provides three dimensional images of bone and soft tissues.

Ultrasound
Used for evaluating the thyroid, pelvic and abdominal organs, heart and blood vessels and can help determine the source of pain, swelling or infection in many parts of the body. Ultrasound is also used during pregnancy to help monitor the growth and development of the fetus.
