Mammography
Flushing Hospital provides comprehensive mammography screening services in a private and comfortable environment. Procedures are performed by board-certified and sub-specialty trained radiologists, as well as experienced technologists. Mammograms are instrumental in breast cancer prevention and early detection.
Nuclear Medicine Technology
Nuclear medicine technology is a type of medical technology that uses very small amounts of radiopharmaceuticals to diagnose and treat diseases. Our specialists can identify abnormalities in the body, such as the early stages of a disease or organs that are not functioning properly. Nuclear medicine is safe and painless.
Ultrasound
Diagnostic ultrasound imaging services are performed in a modern, private, and comfortable setting. During your visit, a trained technician or doctor moves a device called a transducer over parts of your body. The transducer uses sound waves to obtain images of organs and tissues inside the body. Ultrasound imaging has many uses, including viewing a fetus and diagnosing medical conditions.
Vascular Laboratories
The team of professionals at our Queens radiology center specializes in evaluating vascular disease through diagnostic testing. Ultrasound technology is used during this process to help the technician or doctor determine if there are any abnormalities or obstructions in the flow of blood in the arteries or veins.
Diagnostic X-ray imaging services involve a painless and non-invasive tool used by physicians to help diagnose abnormalities such as broken bones, pneumonia, foreign objects, or tumors in the body.
Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose or treat diseases. Board-certified radiologists use imaging, such as X-ray or MRI, to advance a catheter into the body to detect or treat conditions such as peripheral arterial disease.
