Genitourinary Radiology (GU)

The Abdominal Division of the Department of Radiology, part of the University of Michigan Health System, offers the full range of imaging services to evaluate known or suspected disorders of the abdomen and pelvis, which are read and interpreted by board-certified, fellowship-trained experts, who specialize in this type of radiology. 

The Genitourinary (GU) Radiology subdivision performs the standard contrast examinations, including excretory urography, cystography, voiding cystourethrography and retrograde urethrography. Hysterosalpingography is performed in conjunction with faculty from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, with the images interpreted by radiologists in the Abdominal Division.

The Genitourinary (reproductive organs and the urinary system) Radiology subdivision performs the standard contrast examinations, plus hysterosalpingography (a type of x-ray exam of the uterus and fallopian tubes) performed in conjunction with faculty from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Our studies and protocols make sure our patients receive the lowest dose of radiation required for their study. And, having the very latest equipment allows for studies to be done quicker, which also lowers radiation exposure. We are also 100% digital, which means we are more efficient, can provide faster turnaround time getting reports back to physicians, and all medical personnel has access to the images.
