Providing nationwide cardiac imaging services to private practices is our specialty. At Cardiac Imaging, our goal is to make state-of-the-art nuclear imaging equipment more readily available to physicians and their patients.
Cardiac PET Scan Availability Revolutionized
Cardiac Imaging specializes in the application of nuclear imaging technology in cardiac medicine. Our team has been working inCardiac nuclear imaging for over two decades, and through our work, we have established a unique way for physicians to obtain greater access to cardiac imaging in New York and across the United States.
Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) technology provides clinically advanced, accurate diagnostic testing for cardiac patients. This state-of-the-art scan technology outperforms SPECT and other imaging methods. With PET/CT, physicians can view incredibly detailed images of the heart and related biological processes.
PET imaging is also suitable for patients who have excess chest wall tissue, pericardial or pleural effusions, breast implants, and a high BMI. There is also less radiation exposure with PET than with SPECT imaging.
Rubidium PET Scans for New York Based Physicians
Cardiac Imaging is dedicated to providing highly advanced, reliable nuclear imaging technology to cardiac physicians, which is why we utilize the Rubidium-82 generator. This radiotracer has a physical half-life of 75 seconds. Combined with PET/CT imaging, Rubidium-82 provides a rapid image result allowing doctors to observe myocardial perfusion as well as the severity and location of any blockages and other abnormalities in the heart.
Clinical Performance
Our systems are equipped with the latest technology to provide the best imaging results possible, without compromising patient safety.
PET MPI is the current industry standard for diagnosing heart disease. We strive to provide physicians unparalleled access to this technology. Our PET and computed tomography (CT) combination systems also aid in diagnosing heart muscle damage after major cardiac events, impaired blood flow, dead tissue, and scarring.
These enhanced, non-invasive diagnostic solutions allow physicians to cultivate treatment regimens, and surgeons to map out safe, effective surgical plans. Since PET/CT depicts exactly what is happening inside the heart at the biological level, follow-up scans show whether or not a patient is responding to their current treatment protocol.
Accessible Cardiac PET/CT Services
Cardiac patients across the country can benefit from the diagnostic medicine afforded through PET/CT imaging. However, accessing these tests can be difficult for many people for various reasons. Cardiac Imaging’s goal is to eliminate this problem by making state-of-the-art PET imaging available to private practices throughout the U.S.
Patients are often hesitant to undergo testing where they have to travel to a different location or visit a different doctor, especially if they suffer from other coexisting medical conditions. It can also take a substantial amount of time before they are able to get an appointment. Patients may also be forced to obtain special permission or file additional claims with their insurance provider. For elderly and immunocompromised individuals, visiting a hospital to undergo testing can pose an unnecessary risk to their health.
This is why, as the nation’s leading provider of turnkey clinical molecular imaging solutions, we offer physicians the chance to upgrade their own practices with various PET/CT solutions.
Mobile Imaging
Our mobile PET imaging clinics are versatile, state-of-the-art facilities designed to bring diagnostic medicine directly to you. Not only do our mobile units come with the latest, consistently tested equipment, but the controlled environment reduces risk of exposure and contamination. Patients will also no longer have to schedule out-patient hospital appointments, or travel long distances to receive their scan.
Fixed-Site Imaging
Our fixed-site services allow you to enhance your private practice with innovative nuclear imaging technology. By investing in PET/CT equipment, you provide your patients with convenient access to life-saving diagnostic testing. Not only are you able to better monitor patient progress and provide more personalized treatment, you also gain access to unparalleled diagnostic technology that many other practices don’t offer.
When you work with Cardiac Imaging, we handle the entire build-out for your private PET/CT facility. From ensuring your staff undergoes adequate technician safety training and receives a certification with our rubidium provider, to the system installation, our team is here to help you through the entire process.
Whether you’re interested in our fixed-site imaging solutions, or our mobile clinics, Cardiac Imaging caters to physicians all across the country. Our goal is to make it simpler and easier for you to take care of your patients, build your practice, and provide safer access to life-saving diagnostic medicine.
