What Diagnostic Imaging at Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center Means for You
Diagnostic imaging is a service that helps our providers see inside a joint, bone, or muscle when a physical exam needs more detail. At Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center, imaging is one part of a visit, used to support the conversation between you and your provider, not as a stand-alone test.
For active adults and athletes from Wesson, MS, this means your provider can look closely at what may be contributing to a nagging ache, a stiff joint, or a change in how your body moves during activity.
Imaging results are always reviewed with you directly. Your provider explains what the images show in plain language and talks through what, if anything, comes next.
- Used alongside a hands-on exam, not in place of one
- Reviewed and explained by your provider at the same visit
- Offered as part of ongoing orthopaedic and sports medicine care
What to Expect During Your Imaging Visit
Your imaging visit at Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center starts like any other orthopaedic appointment. A member of our team checks you in, confirms your history, and lets your provider know what brought you in.
From there, your provider examines the area of concern and decides, together with you, whether imaging will help answer the question at hand. If so, our staff walks you through the imaging step itself, including how to position yourself and what to expect physically.
Most imaging appointments are straightforward and do not require special preparation beyond what our staff tells you ahead of time. Once the images are captured, your provider reviews them with you before you leave, so you are not left waiting for answers.
- Check-in and a conversation about your history and activity level
- A hands-on exam with your provider
- Imaging performed with guidance from our staff
- A same-visit conversation about what the images show
If you have questions about what a specific visit will involve, our front desk team is glad to talk you through it before you arrive.
