Memorial Health System Opens Diagnostic Center in Gulfport
GULFPORT, Miss. (January 13, 2025) – Memorial Health System is pleased to announce the opening of a new diagnostic center, conveniently located at 4320 15th Street in Gulfport. This center includes women’s diagnostic services as well as comprehensive diagnostic imaging services.
Memorial will continue to provide essential imaging and diagnostic tools to support women’s health, including 3D and 2D Digital Mammography (with CAD), DEXA (bone density), and Ultrasound services. Additional diagnostic imaging services include 1.5 Tesla MRI (Wide Bore MRI/Breast MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), and X-ray.
Memorial has installed the Aquilion™ PRIME 180 slice CT system, with AiCE AI software, from Canon Medical Systems at this location to provides faster exams at as low as reasonably achievable doses, while producing high-quality images required for accurate diagnoses. The Aquilion PRIME’s large bore opening offers a more spacious feeling for patients, while a higher table weight limit expands the range of patients who can be imaged.
Memorial has also installed the Vantage Fortian 1.5T MRI System, with AiCE AI software, also from Canon Medical Systems. The Vantage Fortian utilizes a suite of AI solutions to accelerate scans and enhance imaging quality, ensuring patients spend less time in the MRI scanner while still obtaining excellent imaging quality exams.
