Frequently Asked Questions
What imaging services are available at OrthoNY Albany?
The OrthoNY Albany Imaging Center provides diagnostic MRI and digital X-ray services specifically designed for orthopedic evaluation. Common scan areas include the spine, shoulder, knee, hip, ankle, and upper extremities. Exams are interpreted by radiologists with advanced musculoskeletal training.
Why are both MRI and X-rays important for orthopedic care?
X-rays provide detailed information on bone structure, fractures, and joint alignment, while MRI scans show soft tissues such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, and spinal discs. Using both types of imaging ensures that your orthopedic provider has the full picture before recommending treatment or surgery.
How should I prepare for my MRI or X-ray appointment?
We recommend wearing loose, metal-free clothing and leaving any jewelry or valuables at home. Plan to arrive about 15 minutes early to allow time for check-in and paperwork, and inform our staff if you have a pacemaker, implant, or a history of surgery. Fasting isn’t necessary unless specifically instructed by your provider. Our team will guide you through every step of the preparation process.
What is the experience like during the scan?
X-rays are quick, painless, and typically done in just a few minutes. MRI scans can take longer, usually 20 to 45 minutes, and you’ll need to stay still during the procedure. The machine makes loud tapping or thumping sounds, but you’ll be given ear protection and can communicate with the technologist at any time.
When will I receive results, and how are they shared?
Radiologists review your images within 1 to 2 business days. Results are sent directly to your referring provider, whether within OrthoNY or an external practice. If you’re a current OrthoNY patient, your results will be discussed during a follow-up appointment.
Are imaging services at the Albany location covered by insurance?
The OrthoNY Albany Imaging Center services are accepted by most private health plans and Medicare. We confirm your insurance benefits in advance and assist with prior authorizations when required. Clear billing estimates are available for self-pay patients or high-deductible plans.
