Types of Radiology Exams

X-Ray is a test that creates a 1-dimensional image of a body part. Our hospital uses the latest digital radiography technology that helps us obtain highly detailed images with less exposure to radiation.

Computed tomography (CT) uses X-rays to create hundreds of images of a body part being scanned. These images can then be reconstructed and displayed in several different angles or in three dimensions. For these exams, you will be asked to lie very still on a special table that moves you through the CT machine. Some studies require preparation and may include the use of an oral and or an intravenous (IV) contrast.

Ultrasound does not use radiation. Instead, like sonar, directed sound waves bounce off of structures in your body and that information is converted into an image. Some studies require preparation and special instructions the day prior to your exam.

Mobile MRI WMH has partnered with Monida Shared Imaging to bring MRI service to Harlowton! This mobile MRI is a state-of-the-art GE 1.5 Tesla Signa Voyager Wide Bore 33 channel scanner housed in an advanced mobility medical coach. The wide bore allows us to scan heavier patients without them feeling so claustrophobic while in the scanner. The service will be available every other Tuesday afternoon.

The following studies cannot be performed in the mobile MRI: Breast, Cardiac, Injections of joints, patients that have stents less than 6 weeks old, patients with pacemakers, and anyone that requires anesthesia. All other imaging studies of the shoulder, spines, knees, brains, and abdomen can be scheduled at your convenience.

Cardiac Monitoring includes electrocardiograms (EKGs) and Holter monitors.

  • EKGs: An EKG is a medical recording of the electric impulses from the heart. These are transmitted to the cardiologists at Billings Clinic for interpretation.
  • Holter monitors are an extended duration heart monitor. This monitor stays attached to you when you go home and continuously monitors your heart while you go about your normal day.

Imaging available 24/7 for emergency room patients.
