Body Imaging

Body imaging radiologists specialize in interpreting exams and diagnosing diseases related to the chest, abdomen and pelvis.

Most common body imaging exams include:

  • Chest imaging of the lungs
  • Abdominal imaging of the liver, stomach, kidneys, colon, and pancreas
  • Pelvic imaging of the bowel, bladder, ovaries and uterus

Body imaging specialists often work closely with nuclear medicine radiologists in the follow-up, staging and treatment of cancers.

Specialists in Chest, Abdomen, and Pelvic Imaging

Body imaging specialists are experts in reading MRI, CT, Ultrasound, X-ray and Fluoroscopy.

About 20% of the physicians at Radiology Associates of North Texas specialize in body imaging, which means they completed an additional year of fellowship training.

This provides a rich knowledge base from which all our doctors can consult and collaborate on patient cases. Many of our body imaging physicians also perform less invasive procedures like image-guided biopsy and drain placement.

Common body imaging exams and procedures include:

  • MRI Enterography
  • CT Angiography
  • Coronary Artery Calcification Screening
  • MRI for Liver Cancer Staging
  • Image Guided Biopsy
  • Vascular (MRA)
  • Venous (MRV)
