Imaging remain one of the best tools for helping patients understand their health by providing a detailed look inside the body.
But can this technology be used to prevent health issues before they develop?
These thoughts lead to the development and fine tuning of preventive imaging / radiology .
We have initiated preventive radiology / imaging at Pulse ,the first of its kind in this region to help our community detect disease early on.
Preventive imaging focuses on testing for a specific disease in hopes of detecting it early,( i.e. before the individual notices changes ) for more effective treatment.

One of the key ways to prevent osteoporosis is to screen for it. ,
At Pulse Radiology, we support recommendations by the National Osteoporosis Foundation that women age 65 and older and men age 70 and older undergo regular bone density screening tests.
Beyond age, there are other risk factors which reduce the screening age to 40 years .
These include race, body type and a number of lifestyle factors, ranging from exercise and diet to drinking and smoking.
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA or DEXA) bone density scanning is recommended as the most accurate method available for the diagnosis of osteoporosis, as well as an accurate estimator of fracture risk.
Those who test positively for low bone density should be screened every one to two years to ensure osteoporosis medication is working properly.
Pulse Radiology stands with guidelines from the American College of Radiology, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network, the Society of Breast Imaging and additional health organizations that recommend annual breast cancer screening at age 40.
Such recommendations are further supported by a recent landmark mammography study published in Cancer, the official journal of the American Cancer Society, which looked at 3 D mammography with tomosynthesis screening over 40 years. The study found that women who were screened lowered their mortality risk by 60 percent within 10 years and 47 percent within 20 years
Pulse Radiology - Breast Imaging Section provides expert mammography, breast ultrasound and breast MRI.
3 D mammography with tomosynthesis screening remains the gold standard for early diagnosis of breast cancer.
