Do I need a referral from my doctor to have an imaging study interpreted by Dr. Mann?

Dr. Mann provides expert interpretation of these physician-ordered studies.

Can I speak to Dr. Mann directly about my images?

Typically, the Radiologist's detailed report is sent to your referring physician, who is best positioned to discuss the results with you in the context of your overall health and other test findings.

What is Interventional Radiology?

Interventional Radiology is a subspecialty of radiology where physicians use medical imaging (like X-ray, CT, ultrasound, MRI) to guide minimally invasive procedures for diagnosis (e.g., biopsies) or treatment of a wide range of conditions in nearly every organ system. These procedures are often alternatives to open surgery. Dr. Mann specializes in these image-guided procedures. If not, he interprets diagnostic images that may lead to referral for such procedures.
