Blood Conservation Program

The Blood Conservation Program allows patients to avoid the use of donor blood during medical and surgical procedures.

Blood Donation Services

Donating blood to help patients who need transfusions. You can donate blood every eight weeks.

Blood Tests

Blood tests can reveal numerous diseases and conditions.

da Vinci Robotic Prostate Surgery

This procedure incorporates a state-of-the-art robotic surgical system that helps your surgeon see vital anatomical structures more clearly and to perform a more precise surgical procedure through small incisions. For most patients this procedure offers substantially less pain and a much shorter recovery period.

The surgeon performs the operation by manipulating long hand-held surgical instruments inserted into the abdomen through small incisions.

Fluoroscopy

Fluoroscopy is an imaging technique commonly used by physicians to obtain real-time images of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope.

Intravenous Pyelogram

An intravenous pyelogram (IVP) is a type of x-ray that allows visualization of the kidneys and ureters after the injection of a contrast dye. The dye helps enhance the image on an x-ray film.

As the contrast dye moves into and through the kidneys, ureters, and bladder, x-rays taken at short intervals can capture its movement. A delay in the contrast dye moving through the urinary system may indicate an obstruction in the kidney’s blood flow or poor kidney function.

A radiologist can then assess the function and detect abnormalities of the urinary system. This test is usually ordered as one of the first tests in cases of suspected kidney disease or urinary tract disorders.

Pulse Oximetry

Electrodes used to monitor your pulse are attached to a part of your body like a finger, earlobe, or skin fold.

Skin Grafting

A surgical procedure by which skin or a skin substitute is placed over a burn or nonhealing wound to permanently replace damaged or missing skin.

Transcutaneous Oximetry

Transcutaneous Oximetry (TCOM2), or diagnostic oxygen study, is a non-invasive procedure which measures blood flow and oxygen tension levels to help predict the healing potential of a wound.

X-ray

An x-ray is a diagnostic test which uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones and organs onto film.
