Imaging/X-Ray Service | VA Portland Health Care | Veterans Affairs
Nuclear medicine also performs DaT SPECT/CT scans which are used to diagnose Parkinson’s disease much earlier than traditional methods. The Nuclear Medicine Division is also involved in Carbon 14 research with OHSU and works with interventional radiology in Y-90 liver tumor treatments.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Division
The MRI division has a GE 1.5T 450 wide bore MR scanner and soon will be installing a Siemens 3.0T VIDA big bore MR scanner.  The MRI division is on the leading edge of care with their pacemaker/ICD program, currently scanning patients with conditional and non-conditional pacemakers/ICDs with the support of an electrophysiologist Cardiologist on site.  The MRI division is also involved in traumatic brain injury (TBI) research and part of the center of excellence for multiple sclerosis research.
Interventional Radiology (IR) Division
The IR division has a Philips Biplane angiography unit and is installing a Canon Infinix-i 4D CT/Infinix-i sky angiography unit that allows them to perform a CT scan in the middle of an angiography procedure if they need more information, without moving the patient. 
The IR division is also at the forefront of oncology care performing CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of liver and renal neoplasms and was the 2nd VA in the nation to offer Yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) liver tumor treatments which is a minimally invasive treatment which can slow or cure liver cancer.
IR uses the Medivis SurgicalAR system, a breakthrough augmented reality surgical/interventional system that allows for a virtual reality fusion of a patient’s existing cross-sectional imaging data (CT, MRI) with the actual patient on the interventional table to increase understanding and precision of an interventional procedure.  
The IR division has been a leader in the limb salvage program with advanced angiography procedures to improve extremity blood flow, saving patients from amputation.  The VA Portland IR team is the first VA site to perform geniculate artery embolization for pain relief in a patient with end-stage knee degeneration who is not a candidate for a knee arthroplasty.
