Klamath Falls, Ore. — Sky Lakes has installed a new advanced fluoroscopy imaging system designed to make procedures faster, safer, and more comfortable for patients.
What Fluoroscopy Does
Think of it like an X-ray that plays like a video instead of snapping a single photo. Doctors use it to watch how your body moves in real time — how a joint bends, how you swallow, how a catheter tracks through a blood vessel. That live view helps them catch things a still image might miss.
Who Benefits From Fluoroscopy
Fluoroscopy is used for a wide range of everyday procedures, including swallowing and digestive studies, joint evaluations, pain injections, and catheter placements. It’s especially common for kids, older adults, and anyone whose care needs precision guidance.
How This New System Helps Patients
- Lower radiation exposure using dose‑saving technology
- More comfortable positioning with a height‑adjustable table
- Radiation‑free positioning, improving safety
- Clearer images for faster, more accurate diagnosis
“This upgrade is about giving our patients a safer, more comfortable experience while improving the precision of the care we provide,” said Krissy Holmes, Sky Lakes Diagnostic Imaging Director.
Sky Lakes continues to invest in technology that enhances patient safety, comfort, and access to high‑quality medical imaging.
