Our Services

We have recently introduced two new ultrasound clinical applications that incorporate the latest advancements in technology: Elastography to assess liver fibrosis, and contrast-enhanced ultrasound of liver masses.

This technique allows doctors to evaluate fibrosis in the liver while simultaneously assessing the liver with regular ultrasound to check for masses and other abnormalities.

• Noninvasive, image-guided elastography of the liver can accurately detect liver fibrosis, allowing patients with chronic liver disease to be safely monitored and avoid the risks associated with liver biopsy.
• We are also investigating elastography of lesions to determine if this technique can be used to differentiate between benign and malignant lesions.

• This method can determine the risk of developing cancer or recurrence of a tumor in at-risk patients with cirrhosis, or those who have been treated with chemo or radiofrequency ablation for liver tumors.
• A relatively noninvasive procedure, this provides an alternative to the more invasive and costly computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams.
• We also perform many other services, such as:
• Fine-needle aspiration of the thyroid, parathyroid, and soft tissue masses
• Thyroid and parathyroid imaging
• Lymph node mapping prior to thyroidectomy, and screening for metastatic disease after a thyroidectomy
• Musculoskeletal ultrasound for ligament and tendon tears and joint abnormalities
• Evaluation of the anal sphincter and rectal cancer staging with transrectal ultrasound using the 360° Endorectal Probe
• Gynecological ultrasound, including first-trimester imaging, ovarian cancer screening, sonohysterography (ultrasound of the uterus), HyCoSy (ultrasound of the fallopian tubes), and other gynecologic imaging exams
