The Advantages of Digital
Advanced Imaging is completely digital. That means there's no film to process
or store. But more important, it means better resolution and greater diagnostic
flexibility.
Your healthcare provider can view your diagnostic scan through a secure online
portal or on CD. That means your provider can review your scans on a PC or laptop
with you right in his or her office.
Since there's no film to process, scan review and reporting are greatly sped
up. Usually your scan will be read and your report filed within a couple of
hours of your exam.
With digital technology, radiologists can easily move through 3D images of
the human body. They can quickly isolate areas of the brain, organs and even
specific blood vessels. It's almost like virtual exploratory surgery.
