Live Poll

Would you trust a hospital's own imaging center for your scans?

Maimonides Health opened an Outpatient Imaging Center on the third floor of the Maimonides Doctors Multispecialty Pavilion at 4813 Ninth Avenue in Brooklyn, officially welcoming patients on October 12.

Why it matters

The center places diagnostic imaging in the same building where patients see their doctors, which the health system says can streamline care for New York City residents. Maimonides projects the suite will substantially expand its outpatient capacity.

Maimonides projects outpatient visits will rise from 34,000 to 60,000 with the new suite. The MRI units use software that cuts scanning time by 50%, though the source does not report measured results at the new center.

Healthcare Landscape

Diagnostic imaging has increasingly moved from large hospital campuses into outpatient buildings that house physician practices. This Brooklyn center follows that outpatient shift by co-locating MRI, CT and mammography with the doctors who order them.

Patients seeing Maimonides physicians at the Ninth Avenue pavilion can now get imaging in the same building. Mammography screenings can be self-scheduled through the MaimoCare app.

The takeaway

Patients in Brooklyn who need imaging may find it easier to complete tests on the same day as a doctor visit when they use this center. Checking appointment availability through the MaimoCare app is a practical first step for mammography.
