Radiology, or medical imaging, is used to help diagnose conditions and diseases within the body. At Facey, we utilize digital radiology systems which are both better for the environment and provide faster results to our radiologists for review. They also emit less radiation than traditional film radiology systems and reduce the cost of care. Radiology technologists are responsible for performing the various radiology exams. They get formal training in various types of programs, lasting from one to four years. They may have more study or training to specialize in a certain area, such as ultrasound. Radiology technologists are certified by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Image readings are performed by independent contracted radiologists.
