    Spectrum Mobile Imaging will provide necessary ultrasound supplies and equipment needed in order to provide services.

    Have an empty room to utilize and no exam bed? No problem! We can supply a portable bed for patients to utilize.

  • There are no upfront equipment purchases, leases, or capital investments required to offer ultrasound services through Spectrum.

    We provide the ultrasound equipment, credentialed technologist, and operational support. Your practice can choose from flexible service models — including fee-for-service or self-pay options — based on your patient population and workflow.

    Costs and revenue structure depend on:

    • The services you choose to offer

    • Frequency of ultrasound availability

    • Practice size and patient volume

    We work with you to design a model that fits your practice goals, with transparent pricing and no long-term commitments.

  • Physicians receive results in the way that works best for their practice.

    • Secure PACS access
      Practices are granted secure access to the teleradiology PACS system, with individual physician logins to review images and reports at any time.

    • Direct delivery to your office
      Final reports are faxed or securely emailed to your office based on your preference.

    • Timely notification of critical findings
      Positive or critical results are called directly to the designated phone number by the interpreting radiologist.

    • Training and support included
      We provide brief training to ensure your team is comfortable accessing images and reports.

    • Secure and compliant
      All systems are HIPAA-compliant and designed to protect patient confidentiality.

  • Critical findings, such as acute deep vein thrombosis, severe carotid stenosis exceeding 70%, critical limb ischemia evidenced by an ankle-brachial index (ABI) below 0.31, or abdominal aortic aneurysms larger than 5 cm, will be promptly communicated to the supervising physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant by the attending technologist upon completion of the examination. Subsequently, the patient will remain under observation at the office until further guidance is provided by the responsible healthcare provider.

    Urgent interpretations of the studies are available at no extra cost for immediate review.

  • Your staff will schedule the patient directly within your system to enable tracking of the patient's testing progress. Additionally, scheduling the patient on our platform will allow us to monitor the required testing hours, facilitating necessary adjustments to optimize your revenue inflow effectively.

    This dual approach ensures a seamless integration of patient management and financial optimization, ultimately enhancing the overall efficiency of your practice.

    In summary, this integrated scheduling solution not only simplifies patient tracking but also drives revenue growth through better resource management and informed decision-making. We are committed to supporting your practice with the tools and insights needed to achieve sustained success.
