The new Memorial Joint Replacement Center, part of the Florida-based Memorial Healthcare System, is now open.

The Center is designed as a nursing unit for patients needing total hip replacements and partial to total knee replacements, but it also treats conditions such as arthritis and osteoarthritis of the knee and hip, according to a media release from Memorial Healthcare System.

A variety of diagnostic tests and imaging services to diagnose patients with debilitating joint condition or serious orthopaedic injuries—such as arthrograms, bone densitometry tests, bone scans, computed tomography scans (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and x-rays—are available.

Additional comprehensive treatment for the following joint diseases and conditions—avascular necrosis (osteonecrosis), gouty arthritis, hip arthritis, hip impingement, hip labral tear, inflammatory arthritis, knee arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and shoulder arthritis—can be obtained as well, per the release.
