Happy Tech Week!

National Radiologic Technology Week® is celebrated annually to recognize the vital work of RTs across the nation. The celebration takes place each November to commemorate the anniversary of the x-ray's discovery by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen on November 8, 1895.

The week-long celebration calls attention to the important role medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals play in patient care and health care safety. This year's theme is "RTs: Positioning Ourselves for Excellence."

We wish all of the Techs we work with a very Happy Tech Week, and we thank you for all you do! Enjoy YOUR week!

No More Faxing Paperwork Necessary!

Did you know that you can attach all of your paperwork directly to your MRI and CT studies? If you are looking for an alternative to faxing paperwork over to NationalRad, contact us to learn how you can obtain software which will allow you to print directly from your EHR into your PACS or to scan paperwork directly into your PACS.

Once this paperwork is attached to the DICOM study, then NationalRad will receive it along with all of the diagnostic images. No more faxing!

Interested? Please contact our office via email at INFO@NATIONALRAD.COM or by phone at 877.734.6674.
