Swedish Medical Imaging
Swedish Redmond Medical Imaging is staffed by physicians from Radia. Our team acts as an engaged, complementary partner to ensure patient-focused care comes first.
Additionally, all of our imaging departments are accredited by the American College of Radiology (ACR) in recognition of their demonstration of and commitment to quality diagnostic imaging. Each of the imaging modalities goes through a rigorous testing process every three years to validate this commitment and renew their accreditation. Along with that, we complete daily and monthly checks to ensure compliance with our quality standards. The ACR is the "Gold Standard" for quality in the imaging world.
While radiology services can accept orders only from a licensed provider, we would be glad to answer any questions you might have.

Computed Tomography CT
A CT scan uses x-rays and computer technology to take multiple views of the inside of the body. Compared to regular x-rays, a CT scan can take clearer images of organs, bone, soft tissue, blood vessels and other parts of the body.
-
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
MRI uses radio frequency waves and a strong magnetic field rather than x-rays to provide remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal organs and tissues. MRI is a valuable tool for the diagnosis of a broad range of conditions.

Ultrasound
An ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging technique that uses inaudible high-frequency sound waves emitted through the body to create an image of your internal organs on screen.
