CT Scans
Computed Tomography (CT) scans provide detailed cross-sectional images using low-dose radiation. Our advanced CT technology enables rapid, accurate diagnoses for conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and trauma. Board-certified radiologists interpret results with precision.
MRI Scans
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses powerful magnets and radio waves for detailed soft tissue imaging. Our Subtle-ELITE technology enhances image quality while reducing scan times, ideal for neurological, musculoskeletal, and cancer diagnostics.
Mammography
Digital mammography with SenoBright contrast enhancement detects breast cancer early, even in dense tissue. As #1 in breast cancer detection in the South, we combine AI analysis (Transpara) with expert radiologist interpretation for maximum accuracy.
Interventional Radiology
Office-based procedures like venous ablation and image-guided biopsies offer alternatives to surgery. Our specialists perform vascular access placements, pain management injections, and tumor ablations with precision, minimizing recovery time and discomfort.
DEXA Analysis
Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) measures bone mineral density to diagnose osteoporosis. This quick, non-invasive test helps assess fracture risk and monitor treatment effectiveness using standardized, ACR-accredited protocols.

Took my 83 year old momma to have a spine X-ray. She is disabled and has a lot of difficulty walking and getting up from a seated position. We walked in without an appointment and they never let us sit down. We were checked, the X-rays taken and out of the office in less than 20 minutes. Thank you to all four employees for your kindness and caring actions.

Lake imaging is completely unprofessional, I have never seen this level of incompetence before. I have been trying for days to get images and information for my ill patient, they are refusing to send us anything even though we have faxed them multiple requests. Their negligence is causing a delay in care, I will never recommend them to anyone. Specifically I am calling out Denise who is being an obstacle.

Lake Medical Imaging's quality of customer service is abysmal. Their wait times are ridiculous and even when you schedule an appointment they will have you sit in their hospital gowns out in public for upwards of 30-45 minutes. Additionally they tend to add charges to bills that are not expected and claim that they didn't know the charge would occur because "insurance" however since they collect your insurance information when they schedule you a month and a half earlier the charge should be known before the procedure. When you discuss it with the call center their response is "Thats just how it is".

Taitisha G. was so gracious & helpful in finding my doctors orders, getting me scheduled today without a prior appointment, and then scheduling my next test before I left. The reason this was above & beyond patient service was because I was told on the phone that LMI had all my orders which they didn't, that I didn't need an appointment but could just walk in but I was supposed to have an appointment, and that they opened at 8 am when in fact they opened at 7am.
My frustration quickly changed to gratitude when this young woman took time & care to correct everything. Because all this caused her extra work, I wanted to be sure management knew they have a very caring, as well as, competent employee in her. Thank you Taitisha!
