Radiology - Mammography

Bokran Won, MD, Director

The Breast Imaging Center, located in the Doctors Office Center, is self-contained and adjacent to, but separate from the rest of the radiology department. Patient care is comprehensive, with physical examination and instruction in breast self-examination included. If required, ultrasound of the breast can be performed at the time of mammography. Special procedures such as needle localizations, fine-needle aspirations, and stereotactic biopsy are also provided. The design of the suite is attractive, allowing patients to be evaluated promptly, efficiently, and with the greatest attention to privacy.

To accommodate the procedure, the division has been specially designed with a full-sized operating room adjacent to the radiation therapy room. The radiation therapy room is equipped with a million volt linear accelerator. The Division also has a radiation therapy simulator equipped with fluoroscopy for treatment localization and a hyperthermia unit.

Radiology - University Heights Advanced Imaging Center

The University Heights Advanced Imaging Center features a GE Discovery LS PET/CT Scanner and a Siemens MAGNETOM Allegra 3T MRI system.

The PET (positron emission tomography) scanner facilitates accurate, non-invasive diagnosis, staging, and treatment of cancer, and identification of diseases of the heart and central nervous system.

Investigative studies and extensive clinical practice have demonstrated that PET is the most sensitive test to detect and stage malignant conditions including: Solitary Pulmonary Nodule, Lung Cancer, Head and Neck Cancers, Colorectal Cancer, Esophageal Cancer, Melanoma, Lymphoma, and Breast Cancer.

Combining PET with CT provides greater accuracy for the scanning, thereby reducing overall scan duration and patient discomfort, and allows performance of a diagnostic CT exam during the same patient visit, if needed.

The Siemens MAGNETOM Allegra 3T MRI system is the Ultimate Brain MRI Machine and includes innovative features for state of the art imaging.
