When tumors have been spotted and diagnosed, no one likes to wait to find out if the tumors are cancerous. Orlando radiology clinics can scan and examine your tumors to see if they are cause for concern. You don’t have to wait for months to get an appointment either. You get in, get scanned, and get results almost the same day. (If your appointment is near the end of the business day your results are pending until the next business day.)
Ask Your Doctor for a Referral
A lot of insurance companies will insist on a referral if you are going to make an appointment with an Orlando radiology clinic. Make sure you talk to your doctor and ask for a referral to the nearest radiology clinic near you. Some radiology clinics offer services to the extended areas around Orlando, so that you can go to the clinic nearest to your home.
What Radiology Can See That X-rays Can’t
There is an assumption that an x-ray should be able to see cancerous growths. They can’t really see much, but other types of scans can see more, including the depths of the tumors and the blood vessels feeding them.
It’s why it is so important to get different scans of the tumors done, in case there is a much greater cause of concern and surgery is on the horizon. To book your MRI or other radiological appointments today, contact Open MRI of Orlando today on follow them on Facebook to know more.
