Cooper’s pediatric team are experts at conducting fluoroscopies with the lowest acceptable radiation, ensuring your child’s safety.
CT Scan
A pediatric computed tomography (CT) scan uses a combination of X-rays and a computer to create images of a child’s organs, bones, and other tissues to detect bone and joint issues, complex bone fractures, and tumors.
At Cooper, your child’s CT scan is conducted with speed, safety, short, and care by our pediatric experts.

Pediatric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) produces detailed images of organs, tissues, and structures inside the body without radiation so doctors can detect diseases and injuries.
Our specialists are skilled at helping children stay calm and comfortable during their MRI.

This safe, painless imaging exam uses sound waves to examine organs, allowing doctors to identify any existing conditions.
At Cooper, our expert pediatric radiology team conducts ultrasounds at each of our five South Jersey locations.
