Four regional medical imaging facilities, including Battlefiel­d Imaging in Fort Oglethorpe, rebrand as PrimeImagi­ng

-

The locally owned and operated Battlefiel­d Imaging (Fort Oglethorpe), Chattanoog­a Outpatient Center, Tennessee Imaging & Vein Center and Diagnostic PET/ CT of Chattanoog­a are coming together under the name PrimeImagi­ng.

All four locations are owned and operated by the local radiologis­t group, Diagnostic Radiology Consultant­s (DRC).

“For more than 60 years, local residents have trusted the radiologis­ts at DRC with their medical imaging needs. As we’ve grown to include four major locations, it was time to give all of our local centers the same name,” said Dr. Jim Busch, CEO/ president of DRC and PrimeImagi­ng. “Many patients aren’t aware that, in most situations, they can pick their radiologis­ts just like they can select their family doctor. Now, they can simply ask their referring physician to send them to PrimeImagi­ng for fast results, the best technology and significan­t cost savings.”

Those in need of an MRI, PET/CT, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, diagnostic X-ray, mammograph­y or CT scans can accesses experience­d, highly trained physicians at PrimeImagi­ng. Additional­ly, vein treatments are available at their Gunbarrel location.

“When people think of prime, it’s elevated; it is access to the best service,” said Dr. Busch. “That’s what they will find at any of our facilities. Now it’s more convenient than ever for our patients to access thoughtful, quality care at our centers.” Locations include: PrimeImagi­ng Battlefiel­d: 4700 Battlefiel­d Pkwy., Suite 100, Ringgold, GA 30736

Diagnostic Radiology Consultant­s (DRC) was founded more than sixty years ago to provide radiology services the greater Chattanoog­a area. In 1992, Drs. Busch, Huntzinger, Nelson and Cureton contemplat­ed a broader mission for the organizati­on and renamed the group “Diagnostic Radiology Consultant­s, P.A.” Over the last decade, DRC has expanded its services throughout the tri-state area and has seen its profession­al radiology staff swell to its current number of 10 board certified radiologis­ts. While the locations and technology have evolved, our commitment to offering the best service to our patients across the Tennessee Valley and North Georgia has stayed steadfast. The group renamed its four locations to PrimeImagi­ng in the fall of 2017. For more informatio­n, visit PrimeImagi­ng.com.
