X-Ray
About this service
The University Park Health Center’s Radiology Department is one of a few college health center’s to provide
digital radiography. Sharing a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), with the Health Consultation Center 2 (HCC2) on our Health Sciences Campus, diagnostic images are collected, stored, managed and accessed
through the use of computers and communication networks.
Digital radiography consistently provides excellent image quality in a shorter period of time. X-ray dosage is
minimized and patient waiting time is shorter.
Utilizing this service
