What we do
World-Class Radiology Services
We work cohesively with the hospitals and referring physicians to provide the highest level of radiology services.
Our Difference
Our service is one of our biggest assets. San Luis Diagnostic Center has a highly skilled, efficient staff. Patients are pre-registered by phone or fax before their appointments. On the day of their examination, all they need to do is check in with the receptionist so that they can be directed to the correct area in our facility for their examination. We pride ourselves with our on time service record. 95% of our patients are seen within 5 minutes of their scheduled appointment time.
The advanced technology of our equipment allows us to offer the fastest examinations anywhere. A CT scan that might take 30-45 minutes on an older piece of equipment takes just minutes at San Luis Diagnostic Center. Our Siemens Ultra High-Field 3T, Open MRI, which has the shortest imaging times available, provides the most detailed images of the body ever seen! At San Luis Diagnostic Center we know how hard it can be waiting to find out the results of an examination. So once a patient’s examination is completed, our radiologist interprets the study that same day. If the physician has requested it, our radiologist calls him/her with the results. Otherwise, the report is sent to the referring physician electronically or by fax later that day.
Patients scheduled for an interventional procedure, such as a biopsy, first meet with our radiologist to discuss the procedure. This gives the patient an opportunity to ask questions and have any fears alleviated. We have a private consultation room specifically designed for this purpose.
X-ray
Radiography, known to most people as X-ray, is the oldest and most frequently used form of medical imaging. For nearly a century, diagnostic images have been created by passing small, controlled…
Arthrogram
An arthrogram is a diagnostic study of a joint space such as the shoulder, knee, or wrist using iodine contrast material.
Mammography
Mammography is a specific type of imaging that uses a low-dose X-ray system and high-contrast, high-resolution film to examine the breasts.
Bone Densitometry
Bone Densitometry is a non-invasive procedure in which your bone mineral density (BMD) is measured and compared against that of a normal population of people who are the same…
Interventional Procedures
Patients scheduled for an interventional procedure, such as a biopsy, you will first meet with a radiologist to discuss the procedure and obtain consent.
MRI
An MRI examination uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field rather than X-rays to provide remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal organs and tissues.
CT Scan
A CT scan is an X-ray examination that utilizes a scanner to produce a series of cross-sectional images of a selected portion of your body.
Ultrasound
An ultrasound (US), or sonography obtains images of inside the body through the use of high frequency sound waves.
Interventional Breast
Stereotactic breast biopsy is a less invasive alternative to open surgical biopsy, which removes an entire breast lump for microscopic analysis.
Hysterosalpingogram
A hysterosalpingogram (HSG) is an x-ray examination of the uterus and fallopian tubes. Patients are placed in a position similar to that of a gynecological exam.
