HISTORY



Imaging and Ultrasound Incorporated was originally opened at the Pine Medical Centre, Belleville, St. Michael by Consultant Radiologist – Dr Dalton Durant in 1983. The operation at that time consisted of a flouroscopy unit and an ultrasound machine.



In 1989 a second branch of the company was opened at Brigade House Medical Centre, The Garrison, St. Michael where the first private CAT scan was installed along with a Mammography unit and a general x-ray machine. As the business grew over the next few years both facilities were amalgamated in 1997 at a new location called the Annexe at the Pine Medical Centre where it remains today.



The Clinic is continually expanding and the new technology together with the constant upgrading of existing equipment; including the first digital imaging equipment and the first PACS system; it makes Imaging and Ultrasound Incorporated the most modern and comprehensive imaging unit in Barbados (read more about PACS).



Over 300 registered physicians in Barbados and other health care providers including FMH Emergency Clinic, Elcourt Clinic, Woodside Clinic and Bayview Hospital, Orthopedic and general surgeons and Polyclinics as well as many others have made  Imaging and Ultrasound Inc. their patient’s preferred diagnostic imaging provider.

The majority of patients (approximately 80%) leave our clinic with a CD within minutes of the completion of their study and the Radiologist’s report is then faxed or emailed or reviewed by their referring physician via the PACS system.
