Diagnostic mammography of 1 breast is a detailed imaging test that allows doctors to closely examine a specific area in the breast. It's often used when a routine screening reveals an abnormality. This test can help identify any unusual changes or issues.

Fluoroscopic guidance for central vein access device insertion or removal is a procedure where a special X-ray, called a fluoroscope, is used to help accurately place or remove a device in a central vein. This device aids in delivering medications or collecting blood samples.

A chest X-ray, 1 view, is a quick, painless test that produces images of the structures within your chest, such as your heart, lungs, and blood vessels. It helps in diagnosing conditions like pneumonia, heart problems, or lung cancer. You'll stand in front of a machine that emits X-rays, which pass through your body to create the image.

This procedure involves injecting a special dye, called contrast, into your lower spine. The contrast helps create clearer images of your spinal canal during imaging tests. It aids in identifying any abnormalities or issues more effectively.

Fluoroscopic guidance for spine or back muscle injection is a procedure where a special X-ray technology, called fluoroscopy, is used to help accurately place the needle for an injection in the spine or back muscles. This ensures precise delivery of medication to the targeted area.

Ultrasonic guidance for blood vessel access is a medical procedure where sound waves are used to create images of your blood vessels. This helps doctors to accurately locate and access the vessels for treatments or tests, ensuring safety and precision.

A breast biopsy with locating device placement involves taking a small sample from an unusual growth, using ultrasound for precise targeting. This sample is studied for any abnormal cells. A locating device is also placed to mark the area for future reference.

The insertion of a tunneled central venous tube is a procedure where a thin, flexible tube is placed into a large vein, usually in the neck or chest. This tube allows healthcare providers to give medications, fluids, or nutrients directly into your bloodstream over a longer period.

A CT scan of the lower spine with contrast is a non-invasive imaging test that uses X-ray technology and a contrast dye to create detailed pictures of your lower spine. It helps in diagnosing conditions like herniated discs, fractures, or tumors.
