Diagnostic Imaging
Diagnostic Imaging uses advanced technology like CT, MRI, and X-ray to create detailed body images for disease detection and treatment planning. Our subspecialized radiologists provide expert interpretations for conditions ranging from fractures to complex neurological disorders. With locations across Charlotte, we offer quick access to high-quality imaging services that support accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans.
Interventional Radiology
Interventional Radiology delivers targeted treatments using image-guided techniques that avoid traditional surgery. We specialize in uterine fibroid embolization, varicose vein treatment, and cancer therapies with shorter recovery times. Our board-certified specialists use real-time imaging to perform precise procedures for vascular, neurological, and oncological conditions with reduced risk and faster healing.
Breast Imaging
Breast Imaging combines 3D mammography, MRI, and ultrasound for comprehensive breast health screening and diagnosis. Our fellowship-trained specialists detect abnormalities early with advanced technology and personalized care. We offer diagnostic evaluations, image-guided biopsies, and follow-up monitoring to ensure timely intervention and improved patient outcomes through early cancer detection.
MRI
MRI uses powerful magnets to create detailed soft tissue images without radiation exposure. Our centers employ state-of-the-art MRI technology for precise brain, spine, and joint evaluations. Radiologists with subspecialty training interpret scans to diagnose complex conditions affecting the nervous system, musculoskeletal structures, and internal organs with exceptional accuracy.
CT Scan
CT Scans provide rapid cross-sectional body imaging for urgent and routine diagnostic needs. We utilize low-dose protocols while maintaining high-resolution imaging for trauma assessment, cancer staging, and cardiovascular evaluations. Our technologists and radiologists work together to ensure efficient scanning and immediate interpretation for time-sensitive medical decisions.

Report
Dr. Nguyen and his team were fantastic during my consultation visit. They were so personable and fully explained everything in detail. They allowed time for me to ask any questions. The visit never felt rushed or as though I wasn't being listened to. I am fully confident in Dr. Nguyen's ability for my procedure.
