GENERAL XRAY:
An x-ray uses electromagnetic ionizing radiation to penetrate structures within the body to produce an image. Our facility uses digital radiography instead of traditional photographic film. This new technology provides a decrease in patient's exam time, less cost due to no film processing, and reduces patient's radiation dose. The images are then interpreted by the radiologist and a report is sent to the ordering physician.

CT: Computed Tomography (CT)
This is an imaging modality that uses computer-processed x-rays that travel around the patient in a circular rotation to produce cross-sectional images of the body in different planes and dimensions. CT scans can aid in diagnosis, treatment, and staging of diseases and also as screening for preventive medicine. At Fulton County Medical Center a 64-slice CT scanner utilizes computer software that can create 3-D images, and perform vessel analysis for pre and post interventional procedures. A radiologist interprets the images and a report is sent to the ordering physician.
