Back-to-School Exams: A Reminder for Radiology Check-Ups

Going back to school means kids will be engaging in physical exams and a variety of physical activities, from sports to playground games. Green Imaging is here when your doctor feels an image is needed to help guide care.

Here are a few tips to help you plan ahead so we can get your members in as soon as possible:

1. Book Early: Many clinics may have limited availability, particularly as families rush to complete check-ups before school starts.

2. Know Your Needs: Before scheduling, consult with your child’s pediatrician to determine which exams are necessary. This will ensure that every necessary test is covered.

3. Prepare Your Child: Explain to your child what will happen during the exam. Familiarizing them with the process can help alleviate any anxiety they may feel.

4. Stay Organized: Know whether your doctor needs the image. Most don't and work with the report delivered after the exam. It is important to know.

So, before the school bell rings, take a moment to schedule those important exams. Your health is worth it—let’s make this back-to-school season the best one yet!
