Wayne, NJ, May 3, 2018 – At the 2018 Spring Urgent Care Association of America (UCAOA) Convention & Expo, accomplished radiologist Pradeep Albert, MD, DABR, will present his experience and insights for how urgent care centers can utilize imaging services to improve patient care and create new revenue opportunities.

Dr. Albert will lead an interactive discussion detailing how urgent care centers can utilize diagnostic imaging, such as digital radiography (DR) and ultrasound, and relationships with imaging centers to enhance the quality and efficiency of patient care. He will also share clinical and business strategies based on real-world experiences.
