Your Experience with Imaging Services at MercyOne
- All imaging exams are interpreted by our board-certified radiologists. After interpreting the exam, our radiologists will send the report to your physician who ordered the test. Your physician will then share the results with you.
- Some imaging exams require the patient to be fasting or have some type of lab test or bowel prep. If your exam or procedure requires you to have some type of preparation, your nurse or your doctor's office staff will discuss it with you.
- In some instances, you may be required to sign consent forms for your imaging procedure. This will be done only after the procedure has been carefully explained to you.
