Indiana Spine Group

This blog entry highlights the services of one of the silver sponsors of Back Talk - Indiana Spine Group's fifth annual continuing medical education spine symposium. 

Northwest Radiology Network (NWR) is one of the largest physician owned radiology practices in Indiana and has been providing diagnostic imaging services for more than 40 years.  NWR was formed in 1967, with a goal of providing Indianapolis with the latest, most convenient diagnostic imaging services at an affordable price.  NWR has 49 board certified, sub-specialized radiologists.  Their areas of sub-specialties are body imaging, musculoskeletal imaging, breast imaging, interventional radiology, neurointerventional radiology, neuroradiology, pediatric radiology, positron emission tomography (PET), and nuclear medicine.   The sub-specialization of NWR radiologists differs from other radiology practices that may require their radiologists to interpret radiographs across the board.  NWR's mission is to provide high quality patient care in a cost effective, efficient environment.  The physicians and staff of Northwest Radiology Network are committed to compassionate patient care, accurate results, and timely interpretations.

NWR has three free-standing, multi-modality imaging centers, and interprets images for 16 hospitals and 17 outside imaging facilities throughout the state of Indiana. Free-standing imaging centers include:

• Northwest Radiology at 10603 N. Meridian Street
• Northwest Radiology at 8260 Naab Road
• Meridian North Imaging Center at 12188-A N. Meridian Street 

NWR's mammography facilities are certified by the FDA, as well as accredited by the American College of Radiology (ACR).  They are ACR accredited in MRI, Ultrasonography, CT, Nuclear Medicine, and PET-CT.   In addition to all of these services, Northwest Radiology now has another NWR…NightWatchRadiology®, which is a Teleradiology service that can accommodate providers nationwide.  NightWatchRadiology® is Northwest Radiology Network’s answer to 24-7-365 imaging services.  Images and reports are available to registered referring physicians for viewing in real-time online, with STAT reporting to physicians/hospitals upon request. Referring physicians may also consult with NWR physicians at any time 24-7-365 through their Imaging Assistant service by calling NWR at 1-800-400 XRAY (9729) - Option 5.
