Admirals Cove Foundation has announced a gift of $5 million to support
Jupiter Medical Center’s Center for Imaging. Often referred to as
the lifeblood of the hospital because it is essential for all clinical
departments, the Center for Imaging assists Jupiter Medical Center’s
world-class physicians in diagnosing, preventing and treating diseases.
The Center for Imaging provides imaging scans to nearly 100,000 patients
annually and features state-of-the-art imaging technology. With this announcement,
it will now be referred to as the “Admirals Cove Foundation Center
for Imaging.”
“We are grateful to the Admirals Cove Foundation for their commitment
to advancing the world-class health care we provide at Jupiter Medical
Center,” said Amit Rastogi, MD, MHCM, President and CEO of Jupiter
Medical Center. “Imaging is a critical step in the detection, prevention
and treatment of diseases, and we are proud to provide the highest quality
testing in our region, and with this gift, we always will.”
The Admirals Cove Foundation Center for Imaging features a full range of
state-of-the-art diagnostic radiology services, including 3T MRI, PET
CT, CT, ultrasound, x-ray, mammography and coronary CT angiography. Notably,
Jupiter Medical Center is one of only a few facilities in the region to
offer the most advanced 3T MRI, which operates at a strength twice as
powerful as a traditional MRI and offers more scanning options to help
with the difficult diagnosis of complex conditions. The Center’s
highly skilled team includes diagnostic radiologists, vascular and interventional
radiologists, and neuro-interventional radiologists.
“Jupiter Medical Center was built for the community and by the community,”
said Traci Simonsen, Chief Philanthropy Officer of Jupiter Medical Center
Foundation. “We are grateful for our neighbors, especially those
who make up the Admirals Cove Foundation, who have supported our growth
over the years. Their continued support ensures we will always be able
to provide world-class care.”
“Admirals Cove Foundation is deeply committed to making an impact
on education, health and social services in Palm Beach County,”
said Rebecca Divine, Executive Director of the Admirals Cove Foundation
“We are proud to support Jupiter Medical Center as they continue
to grow and ensure that best-in-class care is close to home. We hope this
gift reminds the community about Jupiter Medical Center’s available
services, especially those in the Imaging Center, which can help prevent
diseases.”
The Admirals Cove Foundation Center for Imaging department has been accredited
by the American College of Radiology (ACR) in MRI, Breast MRI, CT, PET,
Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound. ACR accreditation is recognized as the
gold standard in medical imaging. Jupiter Medical Center has also been
certified as an “Image Wisely” facility for Radiation Safety
