XRCMI
is a multi-modality medical imaging center; in other words,
we perform a number of different kinds of imaging procedures
on a variety of imaging equipment. For example, the preparation
and procedure for a CT scan or an ultrasound study may be quite
different than that for a routine chest x-ray or a mammogram.
Because there are so many varied procedures and preparation
instructions, some of which can be complex, we want you to be
as knowledgeable as possible on what to expect. In this section
we provide general information about each modality at XRCMI.
Simply click on the tab displayed on the right side of the page
that defines the test(s) that you will be having. For detailed
preparation instructions, click
here to access our section entitled, "Preparation Instructions".
For patients who require detailed preparation instructions,
an XRCMI staff member will telephone you in the days preceding
your study to confirm those instructions. Of course, you can
always contact us at (574) 243-0100 or click here
to send us an e-message.
Regardless of the
type of procedure you'll be having, please try to arrive 20
minutes early so that we can process your necessary paperwork
and keep you on schedule. Also, please be sure to notify our
staff if you are pregnant or if you believe there is a possibility
that you could be pregnant.
We hope that you'll find this and
the following portions of this section informative. Please
call us or e-mail us with any questions that you might have
that we haven't addressed.
