Diagnostic imaging

Our hospital offers diagnostic imaging for emergency patients, inpatients and outpatients.

Types of tests

We provide the following types of tests:

  • computed tomography (CT scans): a detailed look inside any part of your body
  • echocardiography: a look at your heart activity using sound waves
  • fluoroscopy: a look at your body structures and systems in motion
  • general radiography (X-ray): a look inside your body, for example, at bones and organs
  • magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): a look at the structures inside your body
    • We are the only facility in Alberta to offer sedation for adults whose conditions make it difficult for them to be still during an MRI.
  • nuclear medicine: a look at how your organs or tissues are working
  • ultrasound: a look at organs, blood vessels and tissues using sound waves

What to bring to your test

  • two pieces of government-issued identification (such as your healthcare card and driver’s license)
  • a requisition from your doctor

Wait times

We see patients with the most urgent medical needs first. You may need to wait longer than expected for this reason.

We acknowledge that what we refer to as Alberta is the traditional ancestral territory of a diversity of Indigenous peoples and home to Treaty 6, 7 and 8. We recognize and give thanks to the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations, all who continue to grace these lands and all future generations. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude.
