MRI
Because our primary goal has always been to deliver the highest quality care to our patients, we have an EXTREMITY MRI unit in our office.
Our Extremity MRI unit is dedicated to the study of the extremities and joints utilizing an open unit. The patient lies comfortably on an exam table with only the area of concern in the MRI unit. This eliminates any claustrophobia and is more comfortable for the patient than a full body MRI unit. It is also a virtually silent unit, eliminating the loud noise of the full body units.
Our MRI images are read by a Board Certified Radiologist, fellowship-trained in musculoskeletal radiology, to ensure the best treatment decisions for our patients.

Ultra Sound
North Shore Rheumatology is also able to offer its patients ultrasound exams in the office.
Ultrasound is real time, immediate evaluation of a patients' anatomy with little to no discomfort for the patient. Ultrasound is also used as a guide for needle placement during joint injections and fluid removal.
