Four imaging modalities, one visit.
Every ER Of Fort Worth location keeps hospital-grade imaging on-site, so a scan never means a trip to a separate center or a days-long wait for results.
CT scan
Detailed cross-sectional images in about 20–30 minutes, using low-radiation technology. Used for stroke symptoms, head injury, abdominal pain, kidney stones, chest complaints and trauma.
Digital X-ray
Computed radiography with immediate digital display and roughly 70% less radiation than traditional film. Evaluates fractures, joint injuries, pneumonia, foreign objects and rib or spine injuries.
Ultrasound
Non-invasive imaging for abdominal pain, gallbladder and kidney concerns, soft-tissue injuries, internal bleeding, vascular issues and pregnancy-related pain or bleeding.
Echocardiogram
Bedside imaging of the heart's chambers, valves and blood flow — used to evaluate heart failure, valve disorders, fluid around the heart and reduced cardiac function.
Come in for imaging if you have—
- —A head injury or possible concussion
- —A suspected fracture, dislocation or joint injury
- —Severe or persistent abdominal pain
- —Chest pain or shortness of breath
- —Pregnancy-related pain or bleeding
- —Suspected kidney stone or gallbladder attack

Gentle imaging for kids.
Children aren't treated like small adults. We use low-radiation CT settings, gentle positioning techniques, child-friendly ultrasound approaches, and private rooms where a parent can stay with their child throughout imaging.

No referral required

Every scan happens in a private room, with a parent or family member nearby when appropriate.
Frequently asked questions.
How long does a CT scan take?
Most CT scans take about 20–30 minutes from start to finish, including positioning. Results are typically ready for the ER physician to review within minutes.
Do I need a doctor's referral for imaging?
No. You can walk in 24/7 without an appointment or referral. Our ER physicians will determine what imaging, if any, is appropriate for your symptoms.
Is digital X-ray safer than traditional film?
Digital X-ray (computed radiography) typically uses about 70% less radiation than older film-based systems, while producing clearer images with immediate digital display.
Will insurance cover imaging done at the ER?
Yes, in most cases. We accept all major commercial insurance, Medicare and Medicaid. Self-pay pricing is also available. See our full insurance details.
Should I go to the ER or urgent care for imaging?
Most urgent care clinics only offer X-ray, if that. For CT, ultrasound or echocardiogram — or if your symptoms could be serious — a freestanding ER like ours is the right call.
