Medical Imaging Center

The 18,500sf Medical Imaging Center – which includes ultrasound, mammography, digital radiography, fluoroscopy rooms, and an MRI suite completes the ensemble of buildings that give Rome Memorial Hospital new faces on its north and east.

The Medical Imaging Center patient flow – from entry, to registration, waiting, changing and procedure spaces – is fit out with a carefully selected materials palette and natural finishes, creating a warm comfortable environment for the characteristically institutional atmosphere of an imaging department.

South-facing glazing, sunshades, and interior clerestory windows infuse the center with natural light that penetrates to the internal corridor. Skylights and frosted windows in the MRI suite provide positive distractions and relieve the claustrophobic effect. The use of organic shapes, fluid lines, natural wood finishes and indirect lighting to augment daylighting and create calming and healing environments for patients and staff.
