Approach to Care

About Radiology

Radiology Mission Statement: To provide quality and professional diagnostic services to all that we serve, through innovation and compassion.

TMC radiologist and teleradiology group work with our referring physicians to provide the highest quality diagnostic and innovative imaging services serving our community. The department is equipped with state-of-the-art imaging technology in all of its divisions and is staffed with experienced Radiology Technologists practicing in subspecialty areas of diagnostic imaging.

A Radiologist is a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing through the use of medical imaging techniques such as x-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound. Because some of these imaging techniques involve the use of radiation, adequate training in and understanding of radiation safety and protection is important.

TMC Radiology is committed to providing the highest level of imaging quality and radiation safety to our patients through our nationally accredited practices.
