Diagnostic Imaging is a term used to describe technology used to produce images of the inside of your body. These images play an important role in screening as well as providing diagnostic information. Your healthcare provider will determine what type of imaging is best for your situation.

Proper preparation is an important part of your examination. Please feel free to contact us if you have questions.

  • Discuss with us in advance any special needs, such as dietary and/or physical limitations.
  • Arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment to verify registration information and provide any additional health information needed  for your exam.
  • Wear comfortable, metal-free clothing; be prepared to change into a patient gown if necessary.
  • Bring your insurance card and a photo ID, as well as prior imaging exams if asked.
