Procedures Offered

Calcium ScoringExpand

Calcium Scoring Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the #1 killer of men and women in the United States. And it can remain completely asymptomatic for decades. Fortunately, a 10-minute noninvasive Calcium Scoring screening exam uses CT technology to detect the amount of calcified (hardened) plaque in your coronary arteries – and determine your risk for […]

Nuclear Medicine ScansExpand

What are Nuclear Medicine Scans? Nuclear Medicine is a subspecialty within the field of radiology. It includes diagnostic imaging studies that demonstrate body anatomy and function. The images are based on the distribution of a radioactive substance given to the patient, either intravenously, by mouth or inhaled into the lungs. Generally, radiation to the patient […]

Uterine FibroidsExpand

Uterine Fibroids are the most common form of noncancerous uterine tumors, affecting 25 – 40% of American women. While not life-threatening, fibroids can cause significant discomfort and heavy menstrual bleeding. Fortunately, hysterectomy is no longer the only option. Charlotte Radiology’s interventional radiologists can perform a minimally invasive procedure called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) that can provide significant and lasting symptomatic relief without compromising fertility.

PET ScanExpand

PET Scan Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a diagnostic examination most often used to detect cancer. It’s also used to determine whether a growth is malignant (cancerous) or benign (noncancerous), evaluate the progression of disease, and assess the effects of clinical therapies. During a PET scan, a radioactive substance is administered to the patient. It […]

Computed Tomography (CT)Expand

Computed Tomography (CT) CT is a noninvasive test that’s able to generate internal images of the body to help physicians accurately diagnose – or rule out – injuries or diseases. CT is often used to determine the cause of unexplained pain, dizziness or shortness of breath, or to further evaluate areas of interest found in […]

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)Expand

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) MRI uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and computers to produce detailed images of the body’s internal structures. It’s a safe way for doctors to get an inside look at the body’s bones, organs and tissues – without using radiation. It may be used to help diagnose or monitor treatment […]

X-rayExpand

X-Ray X-rays, or radiographs, are the oldest and most commonly used form of medical imaging. During an X-ray, X-ray beams pass through the body to create images of the body’s internal structures, helping physicians to diagnose and treat medical conditions. X-ray beams pass through the body to create black, white and gray photos. Dense materials […]

UltrasoundExpand

General Ultrasound Ultrasound produces images of soft tissue and organs in the body by using sound waves that generate a real-time image. Ultrasound can detect diseased or damaged tissues, locate abnormal growths and identify a wide variety of conditions, enabling your radiologist to make a quick and accurate diagnosis. Ultrasound uses a transducer (wand-shaped device) […]

Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA)Expand

Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the most common heart disease in the US. Caused by plaque buildup in the wall of the arteries that supply blood to the heart, CAD can be life-threatening – particularly because it can go undetected if no symptoms are present. CT imaging can be used to […]

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)Expand

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Deep Vein Thrombosis is a serious medical condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the body’s major deep veins (typically in the legs or pelvis), leading to blockage of blood flow. The result is significant discomfort and risk of serious health complications, like pulmonary embolism […]

VaricocelesExpand

Varicoceles A varicocele is a cluster of enlarged veins in the scrotum that causes blood to accumulate and increased pressure in the veins. Approximately 10% of all men have varicoceles, with the highest occurrence in younger men. Also, approximately 30% of infertile men have varicoceles. Varicoceles are treated with embolization, during which abnormal veins are […]

Pelvic EmbolizationExpand

What is Pelvic Congestion Syndrome? Pelvic congestion syndrome arises from enlarged varicose veins in the pelvis. The condition is similar to varicose veins in the legs. In both, the valves that help blood return to the heart against gravity do not close properly. As a result, blood flows backwards and pools in the veins, which […]
