NDI's referring clinicians provide the initial physical examinations and systematic evaluations of foot, bone, ankle and joint disorders and abnormalities. Our teleradiology clients use teleradiology software, medical DICOM PACS workstations and teleradiology equipment to transmit patient studies and images, via teleradiology, which are derived from the major modalities. In some cases, radiological images are delivered to NDI by referring physicians, radiologic technologists and technicians who use fast and secure radiology and teleradiology business software applications developed for the iPad, iPhone, Android Tablet Personal Computer (PC), BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet PC and other types of mobile computers that use a touchscreen or pen-enabled interface. Dr. Cohen and other National Diagnostic Imaging radiologists read medical images created from computed tomography (CT), body imaging, breast imaging, ultrasound, sports imaging technologies, pain management radiology imaging, neuroradiology and nuclear medicine technologies, positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). NDI teleradiologists accurately read, review, interpret and diagnose radiological images.
