Imaging
Morton Plant Hospital offers a full range of diagnostic imaging services on both an in-patient and out-patient basis. Our experienced team of radiologists is board-certified and many are sub-specialized in the areas of cardiology, neurology, oncology, orthopedics and women’s health.
The following BayCare imaging centers reside on the Morton Plant Hospital campus, offering a full-range of outpatient medical imaging services and exams:
New services offered at Morton Plant Hospital:
- Functional MRI - Functional MRI is a type of physiological MRI used to help physicians understand which part of the brain handles critical functions such as thought, speech, movement and sensation. We use this technology to provide our neurosurgeons with important data prior to performing surgery of the brain. Learn more about The Neurosciences Institute.
- Spine Hardware Suppression MRI - Until now, patients with spine fusion devices have not been able to receive a MRI because the metal often obscures the image by casting a magnetic “shadow”. Morton Plant Hospital is pleased to announce that we now offer a new MRI sequence that digitally removes artifact for those patients with spine fusion devices. Ask your physician if you are a candidate for this new procedure.
- Minimally Invasive Interventional Procedures - The latest medically advanced image-guided interventional procedures for cancer, cardiac, neurological and vascular disorders are available at Morton Plant Hospital. Interventional procedures are minimally invasive which minimizes risk of infection, improves recovery time, and reduces hospital stays.
