Stories of Imaging

We believe patients everywhere deserve access to the most advanced medical imaging technologies.

Scans can catch diseases early, improve treatment and reduce costs. But for many patients across the country, these scans aren’t accessible or affordable.

As Congress works to develop new laws, it’s important that we help them understand the vital role of imaging in today’s health care system and make decisions that benefit patients. We promote the adoption of policies that focus on imaging quality and appropriateness to help ensure patients have access to the scans they need.

The Access to Medical Imaging Coalition represents those who develop imaging technologies, those who apply them and those who benefit from them.
