How it relates to car accident recovery
Imaging helps confirm or rule out fractures, disc injuries, ligament tears and internal injuries. It also gives your treating providers objective information to guide your care.
What to expect
- A referral from your treating provider
- The study best suited to your symptoms
- A radiologist's written report
- Review of results with your provider
Good to know
Ask for copies of your imaging reports and keep them with your other accident records.
