Sending CT scans to the O.N. Diagnostics IDTF. Either a CT scan (CAT scan) must be mailed to O.N. Diagnostics, or, information on the CT scanning facility should be included on the BCT order form so that O.N. Diagnostics can arrange to get the scan directly from the imaging facility. Please request a VirtuOst Order Packet for more information.

Receiving results from the O.N. Diagnostics IDTF. Results are returned to the ordering physician via fax or HIPAA-compliant secure email, typically within 1–3 days of receiving the CT scan. Staff at the O.N. Diagnostics IDTF are not authorized to discuss diagnostic test results directly with any patient.
