Website

RadiologyInfo is designed to answer your questions related to the many radiologic procedures and therapies available to you and your family. The Web site provides you with information whether you're preparing for a baseline mammogram, learning more about your child's x-ray, or researching radiation oncology (cancer therapy) procedures.

RadiologyInfo tells you how various x-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, radiation therapy and other procedures are performed. It also addresses what you may experience and how to prepare for the exams. The Web site does not yet cover all radiologic procedures and therapies, but is updated frequently with new information.

All material on the RadiologyInfo Web site is reviewed and approved by experts in the field of radiology from the ACR and RSNA, as well as other professional radiology organizations.

To locate a medical imaging or radiation oncology provider in your community, you can search the ACR-accredited facilities database.
