The Access to Medical Imaging Coalition (AMIC) has launched a new Web site to advocate for the value of diagnostic imaging services.

RightScanRightTime.org also has an educational component, explaining different types of medical imaging technologies, how they work, and the images they produce. The site highlights policy ideas that can help drive proper use of diagnostic imaging and also preserve patient access, according to Washington, DC-based AMIC.
