Raleigh General’s diagnostic imaging for inpatient and outpatient services combines the latest technology with the caring hands of our team of health care professionals. The Department operates with the direction of Radiologists who are physicians specializing in the diagnosis of disease by means of x-ray and other imaging examinations. For certain procedures, a radiologist will be present. All examinations are interpreted and reported by the radiologist to your physician to help in your diagnosis and treatment.
Our Imaging Services Department provides diagnostic imaging studies including routine x-ray studies (bone, chest, abdomen), PET/CT scanning, Ultrasound, Nuclear Medicine, Digital Mammography, MRI and CT Scanning.
A registered radiologic technologist who is specially trained in this field performs your x-rays.

One of our newest additions is our state of the art PACS (Picture Archive Communication System). This system gives us the capability of digitally capturing all of your studies and processing them for immediate verification and transmission to our Radiologist for viewing on a Diagnostic Workstation. Our PACS allows us to copy your studies to a CD for viewing by any referring physician or facility. The studies copied to CD will allow physicians to manipulate and change viewing preferences, making this a better diagnostic tool than printed films and saving you time when requesting copies of your studies.
