McNairy Regional Hospital is dedicated to meeting your healthcare needs in diagnostic imaging. We want to continue to grow to meet your increasing needs.

Our Services Include:

• Helical CT: A specialized examination using a combination of x-rays and computer technology to produce cross-sectional images of the body giving detailed information for the diagnosis.
  
• Ultrasound: Utilizes high-frequency sound waves, which are reflected by tissue in the body. The sound is processed by a computer to produce an image. Common exams include: gallbladder, kidneys, vascular and pelvic exams, as well as obstetric exams.
  
• Nuclear Medicine: Nuclear Medicine is sometimes referred to as the “inside-out” x-ray, because it records radiation emitted from the patient’s body instead of passing through. Nuclear Medicine uses small doses of radioactive materials to create images of the patient’s anatomy.
  
• Mammography: Mammography is an x-ray procedure that uses low-dose radiation to create an image of breast tissue. This is the best way to detect breast cancer in women. Our mammography program is accredited by the American College of Radiology and certified by the FDA.
  
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging: MRI is a sophisticated diagnostic technique that uses a magnetic field, radio waves and a computer to generate detailed, cross-sectional images of the human body. Radiation is not used to produce these images. MRI is most commonly used to image the brain, spine, and thorax, vascular system and musculoskeletal system.

The professional staff of Radiologists and Technologists has received specialized training and certification, and they are committed to providing quality care in an environment that respects you needs.

In the event of an emergency, McNairy Regional Hospital is able to offer Radiologist coverage 24 hours a day including weekends and holidays due to the technology of teleradiography. This technology consists of Radiology images being “faxed” or sent through a computer to the radiologists. The radiologist can then interpret these exams without having to be present within the hospital.
