Accomplishments

June 2003: DIS expands services at Hub Plaza, installing the GE LightSpeed CT Scanner, DEXA and GE Signa Infinity 1.5T MRI scanner. Hub Plaza is the only center in the area to offer open and high-field MRI services at one convenient location.

August 2002: DIS opens Women's Imaging Center, a $2 million, 8,000 square-foot addition to Robinwood Medical Center. The state-of-the-art technology includes mammography, DEXA, stereotactic and ultrasound-guided biopsies, and the first 4-D Ultrasound in the area.

June 2002: DIS opens a new center at Hub Plaza on Eastern Boulevard featuring Ultrasound, General Radiology, and the premier GE Signa OpenSpeed .7T MRI scanner, providing high image quality and speed. DIS is the only provider in Hagerstown to offer the .7T, the most powerful open scanner available.

June 2001: DIS introduces Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanning for diagnosis and staging of cancer. Previously, many Hagerstown patients traveled as far as Baltimore or Washington, D.C. for this service.

April 2001: DIS installs the first multi-detector Computerized Tomography (CT) in Hagerstown, capable of providing faster scans and advanced scanning techniques. The speed of the unit improves imaging quality and patient comfort.

February 1999: DIS introduces the Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS) when less than 10% of the nation had it available. This filmless interpretation and storage of all digital studies greatly improves image management, report turn around time, image availability for physicians and the team approach to care.
