When you get your care at MIT Health, you can have tests and scans conveniently performed at our state-of-the-art facilities.
Laboratory services: MIT Health’s clinical laboratory can do tests ordered by clinicians at MIT Health — including standing orders, blood panels, urinalysis, and that fasting blood cholesterol test you’ve been putting off for months. Most results are available within 24–48 hours and can be sent to healthcare providers off campus.
Mammography: MIT Health offers digital 3D mammograms that creates a three-dimensional rendering of the entire breast. In addition to providing greater accuracy in locating abnormalities, the clarity of the image means fewer callbacks for biopsies or additional tests, since areas that might be deemed “suspicious” on a conventional mammogram can be seen as benign in 3D. Make an appointment by calling 617-253-4481, option 7.
Other radiology services: MIT Health’s Radiology Service can do studies ordered by clinicians at MIT Health — including routine X-rays. Make an appointment by calling 617-253-4481, option 7.
