IMAGING SERVICES FOR ELMHURST PATIENTS

 
 
 

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is useful for diagnosing many conditions. It is safe and noninvasive, and helps NYSI to uphold its mission of treating patients with comfort. The digital radiology department allows the radiologist to analyze images for bone and soft tissue anatomy. NYSI diagnostic imaging provides individualized care as well as state-of-the-art diagnostics.

 

The professionals at NYSI in Elmhurst, NY, use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to aid in the diagnosis of different issues. It’s a noninvasive and safe procedure that gives us an accurate diagnosis. *  The radiologists in our digital radiology department use this technology to analyze the images of bone and soft tissue anatomy. NYSI advanced diagnostic imaging gives us the opportunity to correctly assign personalized care to our patients.

New York Spine Institute uses technologically advanced diagnostic imaging: a high field short bore 1.5T MRI system and Digital Radiography (DX) x-ray for our patients in Elmhurst, NY.
