"Bone Densitometer" DEXA Scanner

DEXA is an abbreviation for "Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry". This is a special x-ray procedure that determines the strength of your bones. Bone strength is assessed by measuring the bone density so a DEXA scanner is sometimes called a "bone densitometer." Other means of assessing bone strength are also available but a DEXA scan is currently the most accurate method and it uses the lowest amount of radiation (a standard chest x-ray exposes you to 10 times more radiation than a DEXA scan). The DEXA scanner at AOC is the most complete bone assessment tool ever devised.

Altaire Open MRI
AOC is very proud to have the latest in MRI technology. The Hitachi Altaire is the most sophisticated and strongest open magnet on the market. At first, it is common for many patients to have misgivings about undergoing an MRI procedure. You may be nervous about the feeling of confinement, or the length of the procedure, or whether any discomfort is involved. But, with education, many patients discover that Hitachi Altaire Open MRI is spacious and quiet, providing superior images with minimum disturbance. Some have even been known to fall asleep during the exam.
