Digital X-Rays

Digital x-rays use ionizing radiation to produce an image digitally, offering images of the abdomen, chest, extremities, head, pelvis and spine. Digital x-rays produce 80% less radiation than traditional x-ray technology, reducing patient exposure. Additionally, the digital x-ray images can be enhanced using computer software for easier viewing.

The procedure to implant a pacemaker does not require open heart surgery, and most patients go home within 24 hours. Before the surgery, medication may…

Robotic Ablation Using Stereotaxis Remote Navigation

Robotic ablation is the safer, more effective ablation for patients with heart rhythm disorders or cardiac arrhythmias. The system navigates to those areas of heart tissue responsible for the irregularity and inactivates them. This all happens without open-heart surgery. Robotic ablation offers the following benefits: Patients are exposed to up to 60% less damaging X-ray…
