Our medical imaging department offers a wide range of therapeutic and diagnostic exams to service our outpatients, inpatients, and emergency patients.

On June 25, 2025, WRHN will no longer use lead aprons or shields for x-rays. This change in practice aligns with recommendations made by the Canadian Association of Medical Radiation Technologists, the Canadian Association of Radiologists the Canadian Organization of Medical Physicists and Safety Code 35.

We understand patients will have questions about this change. To address this, we have developed a poster and a list of FAQs that are available below.

We look forward to meeting your needs in an understanding and compassionate way. Please bring family member or friend with you if you would like extra support during your exam.

Our general x-ray rooms are open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and weekends from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for outpatients. We are staffed 24-hours a day to provide service for inpatients and the emergency department as needed.

Our dedicated team work together to provide a variety of community services. For more information on each service, please click on the links below. Except as noted, all of these services are provided at the Midtown Site at 835 King Street West in Kitchener. We are located on the second floor in the D wing (downstairs from the hospital's main revolving door entrance).
