The Department of Radiology occupies 92,697 square feet of clinical space in Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. Newly remodeled space formerly occupied by the Emergency Department now houses sophisticated reading rooms, a lecture hall, and teleradiology operations. All are capable of performing both imaging and spectral, color, and amplitude Doppler flow studies.
All images are digital, and the section operates in filmless mode.
The section also is a major division of the Center for Medical Ultrasound , a nationally recognized ultrasound teaching facility with ongoing programs throughout the year. Dr. Neil Wolfman is the director of the radiology ultrasound course for the center. The PET Center , which includes a cyclotron and scanner, is utilized for both clinical and research applications. Most subspecialties have multifilm automatic view boxes as well as standard viewing equipment. Several areas have videotape units and computerized data storage units.
