Musculoskeletal/ Neurological Imaging

MMI radiologists are focused on the health of our patients, from head to toe—literally. Our subspecialized physicians who focus on neurological imaging and musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging, respectively, work hand in hand on a daily basis with primary care physicians, surgeons, sports medicine and orthopedic specialists, neurointerventional specialists, neurologists, and others to provide a coordinated, informed, effective approach to patient care.

Neurological imaging subspecialists use a variety of techniques to obtain images of the structure and function of the brain to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions such as stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, headaches, MS, and brain tumors. Neurological imaging procedures include MRI, PET, CT, and spectroscopy.

Musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging radiologists focus on diagnosing bone and joint abnormalities, including orthopedic, rheumatologic, and traumatic conditions. Through advanced imaging technologies, MMI’s MSK subspecialized radiologists are also able to study the anatomy and function of the soft tissue surrounding bones and joints, allowing them to directly observe these areas as the patient moves in a real-time. By specializing in musculoskeletal imaging, these physician experts are capable of focusing on additional nuances related to orthopedic and sports medicine injuries. MSK imaging subspecialists utilize a variety of procedures depending on a patient’s needs, including include MRI, CT, ultrasound, x-ray, fluoroscopy, and even 3D imaging.
