radiology department
X-ray facility section
A radiology department is the section of a hospital or medical facility where diagnostic imaging is performed—X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, ultrasounds, and similar procedures.
Radiologists and technicians work here to capture and interpret images of the body's interior: The ER sent him to radiology for a chest X-ray.
Often shortened to just radiology: She's down in radiology.
