What is Movember?

Throughout the month of November men are encouraged to grow their mustaches to raise awareness and spark conversation for men’s health issues, particularly prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health.

Get routine exams and screenings. Ask your doctor how often you need to be examined. Ask about screening tests for certain diseases and conditions, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, sexually transmitted infections, and certain types of cancer such as prostate and colon.

When it comes to lung scans, people often think MRI and CT are the same thing — but they actually serve very different purposes!

Here’s the breakdown 👇

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging):
• Uses magnets and radio waves — no radiation!
• Great for viewing soft tissues, blood flow, and inflammation.
• Used less often for the lungs (since air doesn’t show well on MRI), but can be helpful for chest wall, heart, and vascular imaging, or tumor evaluation.

CT (Computed Tomography):
• Uses X-rays to create detailed 3D images of the lungs.
• Excellent for spotting nodules, scarring, COPD changes, or pneumonia.
• Often used for lung screening, especially in smokers and high-risk patients.

In short:
CT = best for seeing the structure of your lungs.
MRI = best for seeing tissue and function in other chest or heart areas.

📆 This November, during COPD Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness about lung health and the imaging tools that help diagnose and manage it.
Breathe easier — knowledge is power! 💙

Spring Hill MRI Work-O-Ween 2025 was a great success. So much fun and laughter was had by staff and our patients.

We wish everyone a Happy and Safe 🎃 👻
