ORDERING GUIDE

WHY THIS GUIDE IS IMPORTANTTO YOU AND YOUR PATIENTSThis ordering guide is meant to assist you when ordering a study with Radiology Ltd.The guide includes common indications as well as recommendations for the mostappropriate examination.It is our goal to provide you and your patients with the most appropriate and completeimaging examination. After the correct order is placed, examinations are further tailoredto each patient’s specific condition. Thus, it is very important for the radiologist to beaware of the clinical question or specific condition in question so that the appropriateimaging can be performed.When ordering an examination please include pertinent history as well as signs orsymptoms. Please refrain from ordering “r/o” exams such as “rule out tumor” or “rule outanomaly” unless history and signs/symptoms are included as well. Feel free to specifya particular entity or condition you would like the Radiologist to comment upon in thereport.We have also included a list of most commonly used ICD-9 codes. Please note that this isnot a complete list so you may need to refer to your most current ICD-9-CM and ICD-10CM code book for the most appropriate code. The note section at the end of the ICD-9codes list allows you to add additional codes that are commonly used in your practice.In the back of the guide, you will find a list of our contracted insurance and network plansas well as our imaging centers, addresses and phone numbers.Radiology Ltd. also has a Professional Relations Department with field representativesdedicated to serving your needs.

Dense breast tissueis common and is found in fifty percent of women. However, dense breast tissue canmake it more difficult to detect cancers in the breast by mammography and may also beassociated with an increased risk of breast cancer. This information is being provided toraise your awareness and to encourage you to discuss with your health care providersyour dense breast tissue and other breast cancer risk factors. Together, you and yourphysician can decide if additional screening options are right for you. A report of yourresults was sent to your physician.This law went into effect October 1, 2014.To schedule an appointment, call (520) 733-7226 or fax (520) 290-8377.10
