Radiology

• Advanced technology: We have the most sophisticated imaging equipment available and are constantly developing and investing in cutting-edge technology. All of our equipment is specially designed in a way that makes your child comfortable and safe.
  
  
• Environment: Our fun decor, knowledgeable staff and dedicated child life specialists help make your child's experience as enjoyable as possible. Age-appropriate distraction techniques such as video goggles, music and lighting, are used to help ease anxiety.
  
  
• Pediatric sedation and anesthesia: A team of experts, including a pediatric anesthesiologist, may provide sedation or anesthesia if needed. This team will ensure the safety and comfort of our patients.
  
  
• Safety: Some types of imaging studies require the use of radiation. We tailor our equipment and procedures to keep radiation exposure as low as possible to achieve the best high-quality images, using Image Gently® guidelines. We are the pediatric imaging experts of Arkansas. In the USA we are known as one of the leading experts in low dose radiation techniques for children. In some cases, we can avoid radiation altogether by using other imaging methods such as ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
  
  
• Special care and pediatric specialty expertise: We provide special care so that each patient can have the highest quality images and the most accurate diagnoses. Our radiologists specialize in the imaging of pediatric diseases.

Computerized Nuclear Medicine

Computerized Nuclear Medicine is a special examination that takes pictures to see how well your organs function. These pictures take longer than x-rays and require your child to be very still.

Computerized Tomography (CT)

A CT scan is a set of pictures that show the inside of the body. A CT scan can be used to look at any part of the body.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

MRI is a test that uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to take pictures of the inside of the body.

Interventional Radiology

Interventional Radiology is a team that performs procedures through a stick in the skin guided by an x-ray to diagnose and treat vascular and non-vascular disorders.
