Radiology

The Health Services radiology department is available to all NIU students that are eligible to use Health Services. General diagnostic and sports medicine x-ray examinations, as well as, electrocardiograms are provided at no cost to the student.

All x-rays are read by board certified radiologists who are the same radiologists servicing area health care facilities. All x-rays are read daily, and the referring Health Services physician has results of the exam immediately. Results are reported to the student by the Health Services physician.

Copies of digital x-rays are available on CD upon request for students who require additional care outside Health Services. A nominal fee is charged for the CD.

The radiology department is staffed by licensed technologists who meet standards set by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. The x-ray department is licensed by the IEMA Division of Nuclear Safety. In addition, the radiology department is inspected annually by a health physicist and meets or exceeds standards set by the IEMA Division of Nuclear Safety.
