DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING SERVICES

FCS provides advanced diagnostic imaging, accredited by
the American College of Radiology, at many of our locations.
Diagnostic imaging provides a visual display of organs or tissues
that assist physicians in making treatment decisions. At many FCS
locations, we provide Computed Tomography (CT) scans, which
use x-rays to create cross-sectional images of the body, and Positron
Emission Tomography (PET) scans, which utilize nuclear medicine
imaging. T ese tests are used to accurately diagnose and identify
the stage of cancer, determine optimum treatment plan, and assess
response to treatment.
FCS is dedicated to ensuring that our patients have access to the
most advanced technologies that are available. In addition to the
American College of Radiology accreditation, our scanners have
the latest technologies to modify and track radiation doses per scan
to ensure maximum patient safety.
