less. And we will call physicians immediately with urgent findings.

Accreditation.
The Imaging Center was the first facility in southwest Oklahoma to be
accredited by the American College of Radiology for MRI, CT, 11/08/2007
and 1/17/2008 respectively.
We have been accredited in Mammography since 08/20/1999. This
accreditation assures
you that our equipment and technologists have surpassed the American College of
Radiology's rigorous standards, and that our services are the best
quality available in the medical community.
Earning your doctor’s Trust.
At The Imaging Center, we do everything we can to help your physician give you the best medical care possible. First, we get your exam
scheduled and performed as quickly as possible. Our knowledgeable staff
helps to handle the scheduling, so your doctor can focus on providing good medicine. In addition, we provide your test results in writing, and
sooner — often in much less than 24 hours. Our radiologists will often call your doctor before sending
out a report with abnormal test results or findings. And we make ourselves available to your doctor whenever we
are needed.
We never forget that we’re here to do more than simply conduct a test. Our mission
is to help you get the most appropriate test and treatment so you can get back
to health...and back to life. We are locally owned and operated. We are accountable to our
community; we are not from out-of state. Your exam will be read by a
radiologist who has worked and lived in Lawton. It will not be sent to a
foreign country or to a distant city for an interpretation, by a
radiologist, who doesn't know you or your concerns. We will talk to you to
understand your concerns. Our on-site radiologist has close direct
communication with the technologists, thus obtaining pertinent history about
you, which cannot be done in a tele-radiology setting. Similarly, this
direct interaction, allows the radiologist to aid the technologists in
performing better exams. Many times the imaging techniques are modified
while the patient is here. In this way we continually improve the overall
quality of our product. Our doctor has a rapport with all the doctors in Lawton
and routinely discusses cases with them. Let us take a look!
