Looking for a second opinion on your patient's chest imaging?
MaineHealth Maine Medical Center and Chest Medicine Associates, in collaboration with Spectrum Radiology, offer multidisciplinary evaluation of abnormal chest imaging. Through the Multidisciplinary Thoracic Review Program (MATRIx) a multidisciplinary team of pulmonary medicine, radiology and thoracic surgery experts work collaboratively to review abnormal thoracic imaging results.
Program overview
- Available to any provider who finds abnormalities on chest imaging studies obtained as part of daily patient care
- Allows referring providers to participate in the review of their patient, if desired
- Provides rapid evaluation and management recommendations
- Streamlines patient treatment plans
- Supported by a nurse navigator to ensure recommendations are communicated to patients and the referring providers
- Allows referring providers to decide whether to manage the patient themselves or transfer management to a MaineHealth nurse navigator
How do I refer a patient?
