Services
MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging uses advanced magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed cross-sectional images of internal organs and tissues. This non-invasive diagnostic tool excels at visualizing soft tissues, making it ideal for detecting abnormalities in the brain, spine, joints, and internal organs. Our ACR-accredited MRI facilities employ the latest technology to ensure high-resolution imaging while maintaining patient comfort through noise-reduction features and open-bore options for claustrophobic patients.
CT Scan
Computed Tomography combines X-ray imaging with computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional views of body structures. This rapid diagnostic tool effectively evaluates trauma injuries, detects tumors, and assesses cardiovascular conditions. Our CT scanners use advanced dose-reduction technology to minimize radiation exposure while maintaining diagnostic image quality, with specialized protocols for pediatric and adult patients.
Mammography
Digital mammography provides high-resolution X-ray imaging of breast tissue for early cancer detection. Our 3D mammography systems capture multiple images from different angles, allowing radiologists to examine breast tissue in thin layers. This technology improves cancer detection rates while reducing false positives, particularly beneficial for women with dense breast tissue. All mammography services maintain ACR accreditation for equipment and personnel standards.
Ultrasound
Diagnostic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs and blood flow. This radiation-free imaging modality evaluates abdominal organs, thyroid, vascular systems, and fetal development. Our vascular ultrasound services specialize in detecting deep vein thrombosis and arterial blockages, while musculoskeletal applications assess tendon and ligament injuries with dynamic imaging capabilities.
Bone Density
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measures bone mineral density to diagnose osteoporosis and assess fracture risk. This quick, non-invasive test focuses on hip and spine measurements using minimal radiation exposure. Our DEXA technology provides T-scores comparing bone density to young adult norms and Z-scores relative to age-matched populations, enabling precise monitoring of bone loss progression and treatment effectiveness over time.

Report
I have been getting mammogram images with CNY for several years now. I recently went in for my annual along with a sonogram. I reported some issues I've been having with one of my breast (some pain and drainage). The hope was the nurse as well as the doctor would recommend a follow up due to these concerns but they did not. The nurse handed me the paper with results that said the same thing it did for the 4 or 5 prior mammograms: "dense breast tissue" which is normal but continue with annual appointments.
But I felt that I needed to go to a breast center and so I asks how I could get my images sent; I was told to just have the doctor request them. And I'm so glad I did. A ductagram, MRI and biopsy later.the finding was definitely Brest Cancer. Glad I went with my feelings that some wasn't normal. CNY Diagnostics, you need to listen to your patients!

CNY Diagnostics has has terrible record keeping and sent a bill to collections within a month of altering it. My child went in for a scan in order to confirm the necessity for an appendectomy. My wife and I have insurance through our companies hers BCBS and Mine United Healthcare, the UHC is required to be put as primary due to my date of birth and some weird laws i don't understand. after the scan in May they billed only BCBS in June as the only insurance, this initially allowed BCBS to authorize payment as the child was covered. once receiving the bill and only having BCBS covered. contact was made to ensure UHC would be used as primary.
In October BCBS removed their payment because they should not be a primary insurance for the procedure. Before the end of October the bill was sent to a collections agency without ever having entered the insurance information for UHC or any other bill corrections. When addressing the billing department to their error I was met with hostility and abrasiveness with accusations that it was obviously it was our fault that this happened even with the obvious issues with BCBS.

Service during my visit was fine and staff were very nice. 8 months after the visit I find a $70 collections bill on my credit report. Apparently my insurance left a $70 amount unpaid. No problem, I could just pay that but since I had paid my copay how was I to know that I still had a balance after insurance. I did not get ANY bills from CNY Diagnostic Imaging. I cant pay a bill I dont know exists!
After 3 months it was sent to Simons collection agency who had been calling me for months. However Simons calls were an automated & vague message that sounded like spam calls that just said you have a unpaid bill with Simons. CNY Diagnostic had my correct address and Phone number yet this was the result. a $70 bill that I would have paid instantly had I know it existed instead becomes a negative mark on my credit report.

A busy office, but l was checked in soon after arriving; these folks are used to work-in patients and as such l waited about 15 min with 4 pts ahead of me. The technician was very friendly, empathetic, and efficient. I appreciate that she did not expect me to make small talk since l was wearing a paper mask--she knew l felt horrible and put me at ease. Procedure just a few minutes and they faxed the results *right* to my doctor upstairs. Highly recommend.
