Women’s Imaging

Obstetric Ultrasound: West End Diagnostic imaging provides comprehensive care for all stages of fetal growth. We provide early examinations to assess the embryo and predict the expected date of delivery. The ‘11-14 week examination’ is done to evaluate the nuchal translucency thickness. The fetal anatomy survey is done at 18-22 weeks to evaluate the fetal parts and placenta for any abnormality.

Mammography: a low-dose X-ray technique used to visualize the internal structure of the breasts. Mammography is used to examine both non-symptomatic and symptomatic women.

Pelvic/Transvaginal Ultrasound: important examinations done on women of all ages. The most common indicators are bleeding abnormalities, pelvic pain, or the investigation of infertility.

Vascular Doppler

Carotid Doppler and Peripheral Arterial Doppler: less expensive, non-invasive methods used to determine stenosis in the peripheral arteries. You may hear the vascular sounds during the procedure, but that is normal.
Venous Doppler Acute DVT is the most common condition for which venous Doppler examinations are performed. You may hear vascular sounds during the procedure.

Men’s Imaging

Pelvic Ultrasound: male pelvic ultrasound examination requires the bladder to be full beforehand. After the technologist performs the examination, you’ll be asked to empty your bladder before a second exam.

Testicular Ultrasound: ultrasound of the scrotum is an important examination to assess the testes and surrounding structures. This test may be extended to the groin and pelvic region if an undescended testicle is in question.

Transrectal Prostate Ultrasound: the prostate is initially examined by the referring physician by digital rectal examination. If referred to West End Diagnostic Imaging, an ultrasound probe is covered with a condom and gel before being introduced into the rectum. The test will feel like an internal examination given by your physician.

General Imaging

Neck/Thyroid/Salivary: ultrasound of the neck is usually done to characterize a mass that your healthcare provider may have felt. Other imaging tests may be necessary depending on the results and any clinical findings.

Musculoskeletal & Soft Tissue: musculoskeletal ultrasound exams are used to examine joints and tendons for any tears or tendinitis. The majority of soft tissue abnormalities are typically first examined by ultrasound as a screening test. Other imaging studies may then be recommended by the radiologist if needed.

Bone Mineral Densitometry

Bone mineral densitometry (BMD) is a study that uses x-ray technology to determine bone mineral content. The lower spine or hips are often targeted to diagnose osteoporosis or osteopenia.

General X-Ray

X-rays are generally done to examine bones, joints, lungs, and the abdomen. These examinations involve exposing parts of the body to a safe amount of radiation. The radiographs are pictures taken on an X-ray film, which is analyzed by a radiologist and a report is given to the physician who requested it.

General X-Ray

X-rays are generally done to examine bones, joints, lungs, and the abdomen. These examinations involve a safe amount of radiation exposure to parts of the body to be examined. The radiographs are pictures taken on an X-ray film which is analyzed by a radiologist and a report is given to the physician who requested it.

Nuclear Medicine

Nuclear medicine is one of the most widely used methods for detecting early signs of heart, lung, liver, thyroid, bone, and kidney disease. It is also used for detecting infections and tumors. It uses traces of radiopharmaceuticals to assess your body. This substance allows special gamma cameras to view internal organs as they function.

Bone Mineral Densitometry

Bone mineral densitometry (BMD) is a painless procedure used to detect osteoporosis. The strength (or density) of the bones allows a radiologist to estimate any risks of fracture and to also allow for evaluation in follow-up BMD examinations, incluiding response to treatment.

General Imaging

Neck/Thyroid/Salivary

Ultrasound of the neck is usually done to characterize a mass that your healthcare provider may have felt. Other imaging tests may be necessary depending upon the ultrasound and any clinical findings.

Musculoskeletal & Soft Tissue

A musculoskeletal ultrasound examination is used to examine the rotator cuff for any tears or tendonitis. This examination is easy to perform, does not require a patient to stay still for a long period of time, unlike an MRI examination. Almost all soft tissue abnormalities can be easily examined by ultrasound and is, in many cases, the screening test ordered before other forms of examination

Men’s Imaging

Pelvic Ultrasound

West End Diagnostic Imaging provides Male pelvic ultrasound examination but it requires the bladder to be full beforehand. After the technologist performs the examination, you’ll be asked to empty your bladder before a second exam.

If referred to West End Diagnostic Imaging, an ultrasound probe is covered with a condom and gel before being introduced into the rectum. The test will feel like an internal examination given by your physician.

Prostate Biopsy

This biopsy is performed when cancer is suspected and if the patient has an abnormal serum PSA level. An ultrasound probe is covered with a condom and gel before being introduced into the rectum. The test will feel like an internal examination given by your physician. A relatively painless procedure done with no local anesthesia. The biopsy will be performed by the urologist and samples will be taken from the prostate.

West End Diagnostic imaging provides comprehensive care for all stages of fetal growth. This centre provides early examinations to assess the embryo and predict the expected date of delivery. The 11-14 weeks examination is done to evaluate the nuchal translucency thickness. The 18 week examination is done to evaluate the fetal parts and placenta for any abnormality.

Pelvic/Transvaginal Ultrasound ⯆

Pelvis and transvaginal ultrasound examinations are important examinations done on women of all ages. The most common indication is bleeding abnormalities, pelvic pain or in the investigation of infertility.

Hysterosonogram

This is a test designed to try to diagnose uterine or infertility problems. This test is not a treatment, but may help your doctor decide on a treatment plan. It is important to tell your doctor if there is any chance you might be pregnant since this test is not recommended if you are pregnant.

Barium Studies

Barium Swallows, Upper GI Series

A barium swallow is a test used to detect any abnormality in the pharynx or esophagus. An “upper GI series” is an x-ray test used to examine the upper digestive tract (the esophagus, stomach, duodenum). Liquid barium is given to coat the inside lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestine, allowing these organs to be visible on X-Ray.

Barium Enema

A barium enema is a test used to help detect any abnormality in the large bowel. This study is done to examine the Cecum, ascending, transverse, descending, sigmoid colon, and rectum. Barium, in a liquid form, is introduced through an enema tube through the rectum of the patient. The barium will coat the inside lining of the bowel allowing these organs to be visible on X-Ray.

Vascular Doppler

Carotid Doppler

This is a less expensive, non-invasive method used to determine stenosis in the neck arteries. A Doppler ultrasound detects the location and extension of atherosclerotic plaques, including minimal disease not causing changes in blood flow.

Peripheral Arterial Doppler

This is a less expensive, non-invasive method used to determine stenosis in the peripheral arteries. You may here the vascular sounds during the procedure, but that is normal.

Venous Doppler

Acute DVT is the most common condition for which venous Doppler examinations are performed. You may hear vascular sounds during the procedure.
