FAQ

1Why go with Maxradpath for your radiology and pathology services?
Maxradpath is run by a dual trained Maxillofacial Radiologist and Pathologist which means there is a foundational understanding of the biologic processes occurring on the 2-D and 3-D images, with direct communication as to what this means for your patient. Turnaround time is fast, and there are no communication gaps.
2How are we able to send clinical images to you? Isn't that a violation in HIPAA?
Texas recently legalized teledentistry, therefore any clinical images sent can be diagnosed without the specialist being chairside. That being said, a clinical evaluation is always preferred and can be requested.
3How many images can I submit? How many images will I receive on radiology reports?
An image speaks a thousand words, you can request more images, or less images depending on your preferences. Images are submitted in reports at no additional costs. Normal anatomic structures are not typically included, but this can be discussed with the radiologist.
4What measures of quality control are in place?
In my 5 years of residency training (UCLA and Baylor), I have come to know some of the brightest in both fields. Any questions that may arise will be consulted with faculty at institutions as well as colleagues with full transparency. We are all here for the patient.
5I have trouble submitting imaging, what format is required?
For CBCT imaging, DICOM imaging is required, for all other 2D images including Panoramic Radiographs, Periapical Radiographs, and Clinical images, any format can be submitted although the higher the quality of the image the better the differential diagnosis. Treatment plans are reserved for the clinician, however the clinician can choose to request a consult regarding biopsy techniques and treatment protocols for pathology that can reoccur etc.
