Receiving an imaging order is an important step toward getting the diagnostic scan you need. However, you may still have questions about choosing a facility, scheduling an appointment, and preparing for the procedure. 

Imaging Orders Direct helps patients obtain imaging orders through virtual consultations with licensed providers. This guide explains what to do after receiving an order, from selecting an imaging center to understanding the costs and requirements involved.

Understanding Your Imaging Order

An imaging order is a medical document that allows a patient to proceed with a diagnostic scan when a licensed provider determines it is medically appropriate. 

Imaging Orders Direct offers virtual consultations for various imaging services, including MRI, CT, X-ray, ultrasound, mammogram, DEXA, and PET/CT scans. EKG and laboratory orders may also be reviewed when clinically appropriate.
