Most veterinarians have been reading their own radiographs for years. However, there is often more information on a radiograph than can be easily appreciated. Many veterinarians are finding that using a Board Certified Radiologist for radiographic interpretation and ultrasound generates a significant increase in their quality of medicine, revenue and "good" clientele. It is the job of an experienced radiologist to extract all possible useful information from a radiograph, and help direct your case management. Our radiologists have extensive specialty training and experience to help them do just that.
Utilizing our experience will benefit your practice in several ways:
Help You Provide a Higher Standard of Care:
- In Human Medicine, EVERY radiograph is read by a radiologist. Physicians recognize that utilizing a Diagnostic Imaging Specialist results in more valuable information gained form almost every radiographic and ultrasound exam. Studies have consistently shown that the frequency of interpretation mistakes are reduced by utilizing a radiologist.
- In many cases the information provided by the radiologist leads to additional important diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations, as well as potential recheck visits and other important follow-up.
Quality of Medicine:
- By using all the information you have available to you, you will be providing the best care possible. This will be reflected in more directed case work-ups, more satisfactory clinical outcomes, and greater client satisfaction overall.
- Limit your own liability and make decision making easier by having a Specialist's opinion behind the recommendations you make!
Improve Your Client Base:
- Providing higher quality medicine and cutting edge diagnostic service generates much more referral business than low prices when it comes to veterinary care. Your patients and their owners will thank you!
