Please fax X-ray requisitions to (613) 969-5561 and our Diagnostic Booking office will provide the referring provider with an appointment date and time. Requisitions must be completed on the Quinte Health-specific requisition form.
Please arrive at the specified Diagnostic Imaging department 15 minutes before the exam. You must bring your health card.
You may be required to change into a hospital gown for your exam to ensure that no metal objects interfere with your diagnostic images. Please do not bring any valuables with you to the imaging department. If there is a chance that you might be pregnant please tell the technologist before your exam.
There are no restrictions or post-exam conditions for most general X-ray exams.
Your diagnostic images will be sent to our PACS system for reporting by a radiologist and an official report will be sent to the ordering physician. If you require follow-up care with a specialist, your images and reports may be available to them electronically. In some instances, you may be required to pick up a DVD of your diagnostic exam or sign up for PocketHealth to access images electronically.
