Why Choose Us for Radiology and Imaging?

National Recognition

UMass Memorial maintains accreditation from the American College of Radiology for many types of imaging, including mammography, MRI, CT scans and ultrasound. This distinction is awarded only to programs like ours that meet or exceed rigorous standards. It means you can rely on us for safe, accurate imaging in locations throughout the region. 

Coordinated Care

The UMass Memorial electronic medical record system enables us to quickly and securely share imaging reports with other providers you are seeing. For complex conditions, radiologists are often part of a multispecialty team and provide direct input into treatment planning. We are easy to reach whenever there are questions, so your care keeps moving forward.

Research and Innovation

In partnership with UMass Chan Medical School, we are exploring new imaging methods and raising the standard of care. These efforts include investigating new technologies, imaging techniques and interventional procedures. We are also evaluating ways of capturing accurate images with less radiation.

Send Images to UMass Memorial Radiologists

If you have undergone imaging at another facility, UMass Memorial specialists may ask that you share them electronically with us. Previous images can show how your current symptoms are progressing. Sending them to our team can also help you avoid unnecessary testing. Learn how to upload medical images.
