- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a strong magnet and radio waves to create detailed images of your organs and tissues. This helps physicians diagnose and monitor diseases and injuries. MRI machines look like a tunnel with openings at both ends. There is plenty of air and light inside the machine. During the MRI, you will lie on an ...

- Why Mount Sinai?
We perform high-resolution computed tomography (CT) scanning of all body areas. CT scans use X-rays and computer software to give doctors pictures of your organs, bones, and other tissues. It helps us see inside your brain, head and neck, spine, and chest, and allows us to examine your cardiovascular, abdominal, pelvic, genitourinary, and musculosk...
This procedure, also called DXA or DEXA, is the most advanced approach to measuring bone density. It is a type of bone mineral density (BMD) exam and tells us if you have osteoporosis. The test measures bone density in the spine and hip.
Our specialists are prepared to handle all emergency imaging needs, 24/7. We read radiological screening on all adult and pediatric emergency room patients anywhere in the Mount Sinai Health System. We interpret X-rays, ultrasounds, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. We work closely with all emergency room doctors...
High resolution MRI studies use a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to show cross-sectional images of your organs and structures. The procedure does not use radiation. MRI scans can take 30 to 45 minutes. We use an MRI to diagnose and treat concerns in the brain, head and neck, spine, chest, cardiovascular, heart, abdomen, pelvis, genitouri...
Being enclosed in a tight space for imaging testing can be uncomfortable. Our advanced MRI technology lets us scan your hand, arm, leg, or foot just by putting your limb inside the device. The technology, the Optima™ MR430s from GE Healthcare, produces very high-quality images.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scans use radioactive dye to produce 3D images of your tissues and organs. These scans help us see any changes in your cell function or disease. We often use PET scans together with CT or MRI scans. PET/CT imaging combines unique functional analysis with anatomical precision and the right low dose for each individ...
Ultrasound imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. This procedure helps us see how your internal organs are functioning and how blood flows through the blood vessels. Ultrasound does not use ionizing radiation (X-rays). We use ultrasound to diagnose conditions and guide biopsies. Most ultrasound examin...
X-rays create images of tissues and structures in the body. We use X-rays to diagnose conditions in the chest, musculoskeletal, abdominal, gastrointestinal and genitourinary X-ray studies. We also perform X-rays of the joints (called arthrography) and spine (myelography).
In addition to helping with diagnosis, our specialists also perform treatment procedures. We treat a variety of conditions, from liver and kidney disease to peripheral artery disease to benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Our two main approaches are: 1. Our interventional radiologyexperts specialize in minimally invasive, targeted treatments). We mo...
All imaging at Mount Sinai is supervised and interpreted by a team of specialists with many years of experience. You and your doctors benefit from the expertise of faculty who continue to contribute to the body of world knowledge in imaging through research and innovation. Our faculty regularly lectures at national and international conferences.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is defined by the National Institute of Health as a non-invasive procedure that uses powerful magnets and radio waves to construct pictures of the body. Unlike conventional radiography and Computed Tomographic (CT) imaging, which make use of radiation (X-rays), MRI imaging is based on the magnetic properties of ...
