Imaging Center

HMU Imaging Center

At Houston Metro Urology we provide imaging services that complement the specialty of urology. For those conditions that urologists treat, the imaging modalities of a CT Scan, Ultrasound, and Dexa Scan provide the best information necessary in order to make a diagnosis; one that can promptly be assessed and treated. Our Imaging Center is within our Cancer Center, which is located at 4223 Richmond Avenue; just inside Loop 610. Our team of board-certified radiologists, who are located on-site, are constantly, throughout each day, interpreting the studies, providing our urologists with immediate feedback, both verbal and written, as to their findings. The close collaboration of the physician team only serves to address the needs of our patients in a more timely manner.

When Our Urologists Recommend PSMA PET/CT Scans for Prostate Cancer

At Houston Metro Urology, our urologists recommend PSMA PET/CT scans for patients with prostate cancer when precise imaging is crucial for diagnosis, staging, or treatment planning. This advanced scan is particularly beneficial for individuals with high-risk or recurrent prostate cancer, as it can detect cancer spread more accurately than traditional imaging methods. By identifying even small or previously undetected lesions, the PSMA PET/CT scan enables our specialists to tailor treatments more effectively, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes.

To provide this cutting-edge diagnostic tool, Houston Metro Urology collaborates with the Houston Diagnostic and PET/CT Center, ensuring our patients have access to state-of-the-art imaging technology. This partnership allows for the seamless integration of advanced imaging into our comprehensive urologic care, supporting our commitment to personalized and effective treatment strategies.
