Wake Radiology’s contingent of body imaging specialists utilize sophisticated imaging equipment and powerful computer systems, once available only at large health centers, to identify disease processes at an earlier stage. Our comprehensive services offered in convenient outpatient centers include traditional X-ray and real time fluoroscopy, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET·CT). Our body imaging radiologists work closely with your physician or specialist to provide prompt reliable results.

Our ability to view the body’s internal structures and system functions has enabled our radiologists to detect and diagnose disease and illness earlier, in a non-invasive manner, leading to treatment and intervention with more successful outcomes.

Our twelve subspecialists in body imaging provide an unusually extensive depth of expertise that ranges from conventional techniques to advanced imaging protocols. Our computed tomography (CT) program employs stringent dose reduction guidelines for adult and pediatric CT exams and Wake Radiology proudly participates in the Image Gently initiative sponsored by the Alliance for Radiation Safety in Pediatric Imaging.

Wake Radiology conducts one of the largest body MRI programs in the region and our depth of expertise is well known. We offer convenient office locations throughout Raleigh, Cary, Garner, Wake Forest, and Chapel Hill with parking just steps away from check in. Our MRI centers offer extended evening and weekend hours and sedation is available upon request for adult patients who are claustrophobic.

Wake Radiology’s ultrasound section is staffed by highly qualified ultrasonographers with over 325 combined years experience. All of our ultrasonographers are registered by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS) in at least one of these areas of specialty; abdominal, OBG-GYN, breast, and vascular sonography. Ultrasound is used to diagnose disease and aid in guiding interventional procedures like breast and thyroid biopsies. 

There are many nuclear medicine imaging services available at Wake Radiology and this technique allows our radiologists to visualize organ function, and to diagnose and determine the extent of disease on a metabolic level. And, with the addition of our PET·CT center in Cary we have created a comfortable outpatient setting for a critical imaging procedure, once only offered in a hospital setting. 

At Wake Radiology, time is on your side. With multiple outpatient imaging centers, appointments are often available within hours or days of scheduling, and your physician will have our results quickly. Our responsiveness and communication allow physicians to remain the focal point of care. Combined with continuity of imaging over time and across imaging modalities, these are hallmarks of a high standard of care.
