Radiology Services
Hamilton General Hospital's Radiology Department is available around the clock for emergency and diagnostic testing, including standard x-rays or fluoroscopic procedures like stomach or colon x-rays. The department also has state-of-the-art CT scan equipment, bone density machine and digital mammography. A mobile service provides coverage for ultrasound procedures, which include cardiac exams, and mobile MRI. Through its teleradiology system, HGH staff members utilize the expertise of Scott & White radiologists for in-depth review of images and consultation.
Digital Mammography
Hamilton General Hospital now offers digital mammography screenings on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Heather Bogan, RT R, performs mammograms at HGH.
Hamilton Healthcare System practitioners follow the American Cancer Society's recommendation that all women over 40 years of age receive an annual mammogram.
Most major health insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, have begun to cover the entire cost of an annual mammogram as a part of women's wellness for women over 40.
