Imaging Services Available at KMC

X-ray:

• An x-ray exam produces pictures of the body’s structures. This procedure is often used to help identify and diagnose injuries or locate foreign objects in soft tissues.

CT scanning:

• A computed tomography (CT) scan is a diagnostic imaging test used to produce detailed images of the body’s organs, bones, soft tissues, and blood vessels.

Mammography screening:

• A mammogram is a low-dose x-ray used to examine breasts for cancer and other diseases. Early breast cancer detection can save lives, and an annual mammogram starting at age 40 is recommended for every woman. We offer digital mammography services, which produce clearer images and allow for easier transfer among medical professionals for multidisciplinary care.

Ultrasound:

• Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves to produce clear pictures of the body’s soft tissues and internal structures. This procedure does not use ionizing radiation and has no known harmful effects.
