The Abington
Advantage
As a large, diverse, multi-specialty practice comprised mainly of sub-specialty, fellowship trained radiologists, we offer a comprehensive suite of diagnostic imaging, women’s imaging, and interventional radiology procedures.
Diagnostic
Imaging
Diagnostic imaging is used by radiologists to examine a patient’s internal organs and structures to determine the existence of a medical condition. These exams utilize a variety of imaging technologies that can use x-rays, magnetic fields, and ultrasound together with computers to produce images from which a diagnosis can be made.
The type of imaging procedure or technology used depends upon a patient’s symptoms and the part of the body being examined.

Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology utilizes diagnostic imaging procedures and combines them with a variety of techniques to treat tumors, blockages, bleeding, pain and other conditions. In these minimally invasive procedures, radiologists deliver therapeutic medication by injections or catheters using diagnostic imaging procedures to guide their placement. Interventional imaging offers an alternative for surgery for certain conditions, usually eliminating the need for hospitalization. CT scanning is a technology that is commonly used in interventional imaging.
