Your brain is your body’s command center—shaping how you think, move, and experience the world around you.

During , we’re highlighting how advanced imaging helps physicians better understand brain health. MRI and CT scans can help detect changes in the brain, evaluate neurological symptoms, and assess conditions such as stroke-related complications.

Specialized MRI studies, such as NeuroQuant analysis, can even help physicians identify very early changes in brain structure, which may provide important insight when evaluating memory or cognitive concerns.

At Jefferson Radiology, we provide high-quality imaging and physician expertise to support informed decisions about your brain health. Learn more about our ACR-accredited MRI and CT locations here: jeffersonradiology.com/your-visit/locations-directions/

Your kidneys work hard for you every day — but most people don’t think about them until something feels wrong.

is a reminder that understanding your kidney health is vital. A renal ultrasound is often one of the first steps in evaluating kidney concerns. It can help detect stones, cysts, swelling, and assess blood flow.

When it comes to your health, informed answers matter. At Jefferson Radiology, ultrasound exams are performed using advanced technology, captured by certified sonographers, and interpreted by sub-specialized radiologists.

If your provider recommends imaging, we’re here to support your next step. Learn more about our ultrasound services: jeffersonradiology.com/service_type/ultrasound

Men’s health deserves a conversation.

Many men assume frequent bathroom trips, urgency, or waking up multiple times a night is just part of getting older. Often times, these symptoms can be caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It’s not something you have to life with.

At Jefferson Radiology, Dr. Grant Yanagi, along with our team of expert interventional radiologists, performs Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE) — an advanced, minimally invasive, image-guided procedure designed to help reduce urinary symptoms caused by BPH and may be able to offer you relief from symptoms that are affecting your life.

We work closely with each patient’s urologist or specialist to determine if PAE is the right option. If you, or someone you love, are experiencing ongoing urinary symptoms, take our quick symptom survey to see if you may be eligible for a consultation at jeffersonradiology.com/pae-patient-survey

Take our quick survey to see if you might benefit from Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE). Finding some relief from urinary symptoms starts here.

Even after working at a cancer center for 19 years, Yolanda was still hesitant to get a mammogram based on unpleasant memories of her own mother’s cancer journey. After she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she became close with her cousins Charlotte and Chartell, who were also diagnosed with breast cancer around the same time. Yolanda now advocates for people to get screened for cancer, stressing that a cancer diagnosis doesn’t mean it’s the end and that it’s worth it to be here for your loved ones and yourself. As a community imaging partner, Jefferson Radiology supports breast cancer awareness and provides mammograms at eight locations in Hartford County. Learn more at jeffersonradiology.com/.
