You’ve Got Questions - We’ve Got Answers
You have questions, we have answers!
The team at Imaging Specialists interacts with patients daily, and patients often share the same questions and concerns. Imaging Specialists compiled those questions in one place in hopes that these answers will help others with scheduled imaging as well.
When will I get my MRI results? The answer for MRI is the results are available the next day. The Imaging Specialists radiologists examine the images and provide a detailed report to the referring provider, who then contacts the patient regarding the results.
Is my mammogram clear? The subspecialty trained radiologists at Imaging Specialists are on-site and personally provide mammography results. Unlike other imaging centers, if you need additional studies, we will do our best to perform the examination for you quickly—less waiting and worrying!
If a prior mammogram was at another facility, can I still come to Imaging Specialists? Absolutely! Go to www.imagingsc.com to find a convenient Women's Imaging form. Imaging Specialists can facilitate the transfer of prior mammography films.
Can I schedule my appointment online? Yes, you can easily schedule your appointment online.
Can I walk in for an X-Ray? Yes! However, patients do need an order in hand from a referring physician. Walk-ins are welcome, but it is recommended to call before arriving so the team can put the appointment on the schedule.
Does Imaging Specialists handle insurance authorization? The authorization team begins communication with the insurance company when the patient is placed on the schedule.
Can I choose to go to Imaging Specialists? ABSOLUTELY! Patients should be an advocate for their health and request to go to Imaging Specialists.
