Expert Imaging To Give the Picture of Health

At AdventHealth Carrollwood, formerly Florida Hospital Carrollwood, you’ll find a wide range of imaging services, from X-rays to mammograms to advanced nuclear medicine. Using the latest imaging technology, we'll do our best to identify your health issue with precision and accuracy, because the first step toward recovery is understanding the problem.
Care You Need Close to Home
-
Diagnostic Imaging
Our diagnostic imaging services include a full range of tests and scans to accurately diagnose a wide range of health conditions. Our digital imaging technology allows doctors to access test results immediately so treatments can begin quickly.
-
Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine is a specialized area of radiology that uses very small amounts of radioactive materials that are given orally or through an IV. The radioactive materials transmit an image back to your provider that allows them to examine your organ’s structure and metabolic function.
-
Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive approach to treat a wide variety of medical treatments. Radiologists or surgeons guide catheters or wires to an affected area to deliver targeted treatment.

- Preparing for Your Upcoming Screening
-
Knowing what to expect reduces anxiety and increases confidence. We need to know what to expect too, so before your exam, we’ll discuss your medical history and allergies. We’ll even ask if you experience claustrophobia and take steps to make your screening process less cramped.
In preparation for some tests, you may need to change into scrubs or a gown, and we may ask you to remove any metal jewelry or electronic devices. In certain cases, you may need to fast for several hours beforehand. To help us get a clearer look at the inside of your body, we may ask you to drink a liquid called a contrast, or we may inject this intravenously. Following your test, your recovery period will be fairly short.
We’re here to guide you from start to finish. After your test, a board-certified radiologist will assess your images, delivering results to your doctor as soon as possible. If you have any concerns or questions, just ask. We’re here to ease your mind. To learn more about what to expect for your test, visit us or talk to your doctor.
