At Advocate Christ Medical Center and Advocate Hope Children's Hospital, we understand that the sooner doctors have a diagnosis the sooner treatment can begin. That's why our imaging department offers state-of-the-art technologies 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And we are the only hospital on Chicago's south side to perform MRI, CT and interventional radiology for pediatric sedation cases.

Our twenty-five board-certified radiologists read more than 460,000 reports annually. We view images using the Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS) and offer patients the option of taking home a CD of their imaging procedure. Plus, we can provide final results within 24 hours via AutoFax.

The experienced nurses and dedicated staff at Christ and Hope provide personalized care by providing sedatives and medication, starting IVs, assisting in treatments, preparing patients for procedures, and helping patients recover.

With the exception of pediatric cases, appointments can be scheduled in as short a period as two days. We do welcome walk-ins. For the scheduling we recommend using our Central Scheduling Department at (708) 684.1000.

Free parking is available in the Imaging Center parking lot located next to the Imaging Center.
