Diagnostic imaging requesting options for referring doctors

Canberra Imaging Group can provide referring doctors with a range of diagnostic imaging request formats including:


Blank request forms

These are the traditional request form produced in pads of 100. The forms include information and maps with the location of Canberra Imaging Group sites and the modalities available at each site. The forms are constructed to collect information relevant to a patient event such as name, tests, clinical information etc.

Personalised request forms

These are the same as above but include the referring doctor details to assist in reducing time and improving the accuracy of data used.

Computer generated request forms

A4 format forms are provided which contain the same basic information as the blank request pads but are designed for use with computer systems that are capable of generating requests for medical procedures. They are available in two formats – template, or blank page.

To order referral pads, email us at admin@cig.com.au or
phone (02) 6203 2200.

Reporting options

Traditionally Canberra Imaging Group will place a patient’ s films and report in an X Ray envelope and give it to the patient to take with them to return to their practitioner. Other options include:

Courier delivery: We can also courier films and reports to the referring practitioner independently of the patient. This avoids the patient waiting for reports and ensures the films and reports are returned to the referrer.

Email reports:
Reports may be emailed directly to referring practitioners. These reports are available as soon as they are checked and sent in a format that enables them to be incorporated in electronic medical record systems.
Other: Other options include faxing reports.
