Our radiology care team at Ascension Illinois - Imaging Chicago is dedicated to making your experience as comfortable as possible. We explain what to expect and whether there are any dietary restrictions before coming in for your imaging test or procedure. Let our care team know if you or your child have specific needs or concerns, so we can make arrangements to deliver testing that is right for you.
What to expect
A doctor’s referral is needed for all types of screening and diagnostic imaging tests. If you’re scheduling an appointment for a mammogram, let us know if you had a previous mammogram at a different imaging center. If so, please bring the CD report, or let us know so we can request the imaging report from the radiology group.
