SGMC Opens the Region’s First Free-standing Imaging Center and Women’s Imaging Center

PRESS RELEASE - The new Imaging Center and Women's Imaging Center at
South Georgia Medical Center opens for business on Monday, August 1,
2011. Services will cease at the former location of the SGMC Imaging
Center at North Oak on Friday, July 29 at 5 pm when that facility will
close.



The state-of-the-art new facilities are located in the SGMC
Professional Building at 2409 North Patterson Street and feature some
of the most advanced imaging equipment on the market.
"Our goal is to provide convenient, quality imaging studies for both
men and women," explains Teresa Tenery, RT (R), director of Medical
Imaging. "We are excited to have a separate facility that offers a
full range of imaging capability. Nearby parking makes it more
convenient, and since we are not working in emergency cases it will be
more efficient with quicker service."
Services offered in the new facility include: digital mammography, a
64-slice computed tomography (CT) scanner, ultrasound, bone
densitometry, digital X-ray including fluoroscopy, and the community's
only fixed-base positron emission tomography scanner with 64-slice CT
(PET-CT).

Our expert, licensed technologists and board-certified, local
radiologists deliver the highest quality results to ensure diagnostic
accuracy. By providing superior service in a caring and compassionate
manner, we make the imaging process simple and trouble free. We hope
to earn your trust and become the provider of choice for all your
diagnostic imaging needs.

The Imaging Center and Women's Imaging Center are the first
free-standing imaging facilities in Lowndes County and our region. The
Centers are open Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm.
