MRI
MRI is an advanced technology that lets your doctor see internal organs, muscles, blood vessels, joints, tumors, areas of infection and more, without X-ray, surgery or pain. The MRI has no known harmful effects. Studies can range from 30-60 minutes. We can also perform breast MRIs. MRIs uses a strong magnetic field, but does not expose you to any radiation. There are no known harmful effects.

CT Scan
CT Scan produces a series of images and can detect conditions that do not show up on conventional X-rays. During the scan a thin beam of X-ray is focused on a specific part of your body such as the head, chest, liver, spleen, pancreas, adrenal glands, kidney or spine. CT scan of the body can take from 15 to 30 minutes depending on what type of test is ordered.
During some CT scans, contrast medium is used to highlight the blood vessels and/or organs of the body.
Equipment:
Sheffield Center - Siemens Somatom Emotion 16
Lorain Center - Siemens Somatom Sensation 64
X-Ray
X-rays are a form of ionizing electromagnetic radiation. Higher powered energies on this spectrum are ionizing because they have the energy to change the molecules they pass through. This is what makes these energies harmful unlike visible light and radiowaves. X-rays exist naturally but are created by our machines in a VERY controlled manner that allow our technologists to set exact technical factors that change depending on body part and/or the examination being performed. One of the many ways your dose of x-rays will be kept as low as possible, is to have the x-rays interact with a screen first. This screen gives off light proportional to the amount of radiation it receives. This light is what the film is exposed to, not the x-rays. This method requires much less energy to get an image.
