Remote treating and referring physicians in the U.S. use NDI telecardiology services to transmit electrocardiographic data and cardiac imaging results in real-time to NDI cardiac imaging specialists who interpret the studies, write reports and deliver their final reports online.
NDI cardiologists use digital information and communication technologies to provide remote cardiology coverage for hospitals, emergency departments, urgent care centers and other healthcare facilities that deal with disorders of the heart and the cardiovascular system.
National Diagnostic Imaging provides telecardiology services, cardiac imaging interpretations, mobile EKG reporting services, remote cardiology reading services and echocardiogram (echocardiography) reading services in the USA.
In 2022, the National Diagnostic Imaging teleradiology company provides remote cardiology services in the U.S. by using cardiology workstations, HIPAA compliant PACS software, high-speed Internet connections, telecommunications systems and online databases. Cardiovascular imaging includes several methods to take pictures of the heart and surrounding anatomy.
Cardiology imaging and diagnostic workstations that support most imaging modalities provide unique tools for analysis, segmentation, measurements, annotation, filming and exporting of clinically relevant images. Cardiac imaging refers to non-invasive imaging of the heart using ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, or nuclear medicine imaging with PET or SPECT.
NDI cardiologists interpret the following studies via teleradiology and submit their findings to referring physicians via a PACS, and in some cases, by email:
NDI doctors are U.S. Board Certified and hold certifications in echocardiography.
We provide interpretations for cardiologists, cardiology clinics, hospitals, private physicians, urgent care centers, internal medicine departments, cardiac surgeons and heart specialists. Cardiology image reading services and interpretations services start at $13 per study based on the imaging modality and volume.

Heart disease tests include echocardiograms, electrocardiograms, chest X-rays, CT scans, and MRI scans. An ECG is often used alongside other tests to help diagnose and monitor conditions affecting the heart. It can be used to investigate symptoms of a possible heart problem, such as chest pain, palpitations (suddenly noticeable heartbeats), dizziness and shortness of breath.
NDI cardiologists use a PACS workstation to interpret results from patient cardiac imaging studies, diagnostic radiology exams and diagnostic medical imaging tests.
PACS is used in cardiology departments. Cardiology has unique requirements; these needs come in the form of capturing sound, certain cardiac measurements, and structured cardiac catheter laboratory (cath-lab) and echocardiography laboratory reporting. Cath-lab and echo are the chief modalities that are connected to a cardiology PACS. Others include cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cardiac computer tomography (CT). Cardiology PACS uses information produced by these 4 modalities.
Echocardiography, including stress echocardiography, can provide the required clinical information and avoids radiation exposure.
CT coronary angiography is increasingly used to detect coronary artery disease in patients with an intermediate risk and in those with equivocal stress test results.
Cardiac MRI studies are ordered by a patient’s cardiologist as an adjunct to other imaging modalities when further clarification is warranted. Cardiac MRI is an advanced imaging test used to obtain detailed views of the heart.
Once a cardiac image is generated, PACS is used to transfer that digital image to a computer network that will store the image and display the image for physicians. Learn more about PACS, computer networks and teleradiology in this PDF.
A picture archiving and communication system (PACS) is a high-speed, graphical, computer network system for the storage, recovery, and display of diagnostic radiological images.
NDI radiologists use PACS to diagnose heart disease, to dictate their findings and critical results, to write and sign their final radiology report and to deliver their conclusions in PDF format via teleradiology.
Cardiac imaging providers and treating physicians use high speed Internet connections to transmit pictures of a patient’s heart to the National Diagnostic Imaging PACS system.
Many different tests are used to diagnose heart disease. Besides blood tests and a chest X-ray, tests to diagnose heart disease can include:
NDI cardiologists use teleradiology to receive radiological patient images 24/7 that are shared online by other radiologists and physicians.
NDI telecardiology services are used by U.S. cardiovascular imaging centers to receive remote interpretations of electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) results from heart imaging specialists online.
Treating physicians use NDI telecardiology services to order and receive cardiac imaging study final reports written by NDI imaging cardiologists that are delivered in PDF format.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiac MRI or CMR) produces detailed images of the beating heart.
NDI cardiologists interpret cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies and state their cardiac MRI findings in reports that are provided online to healthcare providers and patients.
NDI diagnostic radiologists are licensed in all 50 states to use telecardiology services to collaborate with other physicians and to interpret cardiac imaging studies.

Diagnostic imaging lets doctors look inside human and animal bodies for clues about a medical condition. A variety of machines and techniques can create pictures of the structures and activities inside the body. The type of imaging a doctor uses depends on the symptoms and the part of your body being examined. Ultrasonography is a popular diagnostic imaging tool that looks inside a dog or cat’s body via the use of sound waves.
