New York City-based Mount Sinai Queens has opened a new outpatient imaging facility at the 140,000-square-foot Mount Sinai Queens Ambulatory Pavilion. Mount Sinai Imaging is part of the hospital's $175 million expansion plan and the latest addition to the largest new medical construction in Queens in recent years.
The new imaging center offers the latest diagnostic equipment, including PET and CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, X-ray, mammography and bone density scans. All images are read by fellowship-trained, board certified radiologists who also serve on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
The Mount Sinai Queens Ambulatory Pavilion also houses the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Emergency Department, featuring a separate pediatric emergency area, cardiac and critical care resuscitation rooms, and bariatric- and dialysis-capable treatment rooms. The new 20,000-square-foot emergency department is nearly five times the size of the former emergency room facility. The new building will also be home to Mount Sinai Doctors, a new multispecialty physician practice, and new state-of-the-art operating rooms.
