- Are imaging studies interpreted by Dr. Khazoom covered by Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?
- Medically necessary diagnostic imaging studies interpreted by a Radiologist like Dr. Khazoom are typically covered by Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC when prescribed by your referring physician and performed at an accredited medical facility. Some advanced or specialized interventional procedures may also be covered. It's always best to confirm specific coverage details with Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) or the imaging clinic/hospital.
- Do I need a referral from my doctor to have an imaging study interpreted by Dr. Khazoom?
- Yes, almost all diagnostic imaging tests (like X-rays, CT, MRI, ultrasounds) and interventional radiology procedures require a formal request or requisition from your family doctor, specialist, or other authorized healthcare provider. Dr. Khazoom provides expert interpretation of these physician-ordered studies.
- What's the difference between an MRI and a CT scan?
- Both are advanced imaging tests, but they use different technologies. CT (Computed Tomography) scans utilize X-rays and a computer to produce detailed cross-sectional images and are excellent for visualizing bones, lungs, and detecting acute bleeding. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to generate highly detailed images of soft tissues like the brain, spine, joints, and internal organs, without ionizing radiation. Your doctor or Dr. Khazoom will determine which modality is most appropriate based on your medical needs.
- How will I get the results of my imaging exam?
- After your imaging exam, Dr. Khazoom (or another Radiologist) will review the images and prepare a detailed report. This report is sent directly to the physician who ordered your test (your referring doctor). They will discuss the results with you during a follow-up appointment, explaining their significance in your overall health. Please allow a few business days for the report to reach your doctor.
- Can I speak to Dr. Khazoom directly about my images?
- Typically, the detailed report is sent to your referring physician, who is best equipped to discuss the results with you. Direct consultation with the Radiologist is uncommon for routine diagnostics. However, for Interventional Radiology procedures performed by Dr. Khazoom, he would discuss the procedure and its outcomes with you beforehand.
