I recommend imaging facilities that perform high-quality studies and employ radiologists specializing in musculoskeletal medicine – and where I can review the images myself.
In regards to advanced imaging, I remind all patients that medical research tells us that young, healthy, completely asymptomatic people often have numerous abnormalities on their MRI scans (ligament and tendon tears, disc herniations, degenerative changes, etc.). Therefore, this is something that we must keep in mind as we order and interpret advanced imaging studies.
Viewing your imaging studies (X-ray, CT, MRI)
We are unable to supply you with the actual images of your study. However, you may view the images on-line – see below. If you wish to obtain a CD with your images, you will need to contact the imaging facility directly. Images cannot be sent via email.

Imaging Facilities
Radiographs (x-rays) will usually be performed at this location, prior to your appointment with Dr. Weiss:

Ignore any “MyChart” messages that you receive regarding your x-ray appointment.
Advanced imaging, such as CT, MRI, or diagnostic ultrasound, are performed at NYU Langone Health facilities throughout Manhattan and the New York metropolitan area. Please check with our office before scheduling, as different locations have different quality scanners. Also, certain NYU Langone Health imaging facilities bill as a “hospital” service, which means a significantly higher out-of-pocket cost for you.
