Hot Springs Radiology Services has provided historic Hot Springs and the surrounding communities with diagnostic imaging and minimally invasive interventional imaging procedures for more than 80 years. The subspecialized radiology practice serves two health systems and four hospitals with subspecialty diagnostic imaging, including neuroradiology, musculoskeletal radiology, body imaging, women's imaging, interventional radiology, and nuclear medicine. In addition to serving hospitals associated with the Lifepoint and Common Spirit health systems, Hot Springs Radiology Services staffs radiology departments at two independent hospitals in the Hot Springs area.
The Hot Springs Metropolitan Area (pop.100,000) is southwest of Little Rock and adjacent to Hot Springs National Park, the first and smallest jewel park in the National Park system. The nearby Ouachita Mountains are known for beautiful lakes, hiking and biking trails, and naturally heated springs. Several historic bathhouses have attracted visitors seeking the restorative properties of thermal waters since the late 18th century. Hot Springs also is known as the birthplace of baseball's spring training and has hosted many Major League greats including Babe Ruth, Cy Young, and Jackie Robinson.
