Cardiac Imaging
As a specialty hospital, the majority of imaging services offered at Deborah are designed to aid in the diagnosis of heart, lung, and vascular conditions. Our facility is accredited by the IAC in the areas of vascular testing, nuclear cardiology, and echocardiography. All cardiac imaging scans are evaluated by a subspecialized heart-focused radiology technician.
The imaging center is open to patients of our Hospital as well as the general public, and offers accessible and affordable imaging and radiology services in a warm, patient-friendly environment.
Whether you’re already working with a physician or prefer that we connect you with a Deborah cardiologist, the process is seamless.
