| Your doctor is
concerned about your safety. He knows if there are any risks to the
study, and balances them against the benefit they can provide. Even
though you may be expecting to get a scan, it may be that the best thing to
do is hold off until a better time. |
After
your doctor evaluates you, he may determine that a diagnostic imaging test
will help monitor your condition. The tests by themselves do not make you
any better, but they can help your doctor tell more about how to help you.
Only a doctor can write an order for a diagnostic imaging procedure.
The Order starts the six-step process that finally results in your doctor receiving
a report from us. |
