Missouri Baptist Sullivan Hospital is pleased to announce the opening of a new Outpatient Imaging Suite. This area houses mammography, bone density and ultrasound services with much larger, updated rooms for a better overall patient experience. The hospital is adding another ultrasound machine, which will be its third imaging system. A new bone density machine also will replace the current system.
“After six months of construction, we’re extremely excited to launch the new Outpatient Imaging Suite,” said Travis Little, radiology manager at Missouri Baptist Sullivan Hospital. “This is the first phase of several upcoming changes to the Radiology/Imaging department and the first of several upcoming changes to our campus. By moving our mammography, bone density and ultrasound services to this new space, we’re allowing for future expansions in the current radiology department. This is to support the continued rapid growth and demand for radiology/imaging services that we’ve has experienced over the last several years.”
The upcoming second and third phases of the radiology expansion will include a second computed tomography (CT) scan machine scheduled to be available by the end of 2023. These new areas will expand the hospital’s capabilities for patients, providing them with the extraordinary service and care expected from Missouri Baptist Sullivan and BJC HealthCare facilities.
