I think the Dominion would be a huge draw for a physician practice, and they could run so many more folks through quickly and diagnose more quickly, get the patient on the road to healing faster. When I developed severe shoulder and neck pain, I had to wait a day after seeing the doc to get an MRI appt. at a remote location. I couldn't lie still enough for the MRI, became very hot and anxious, was in a lot of pain, so left the center and found a better technology. That took another week to get an appt. And another drive to another location. Then two days to get the report back to the doctor. After being told by two docs that I would need cervical disc surgery and fusion, I went to a third doc. He discovered, in a better x-ray (digital, not film like the first doc), that I had shoulder bone spurs! They were causing the pain all the way up into my neck and down my arm. Don't know, but perhaps a doctor with the Dominion could have studied me more closely through real time movement and seen these spurs right away. I ended up taking a prescription anti-inflammatory med that got rid of 100% of the pain in a week. To think I was almost on the operating table having cervical spinal fusion, when all along it was bone spurs in a completely different location. I don't know enough about the technology, but it makes me think that at the doctor/patient/practice level, a lot of pain, stress, misdiagnosis and time would be saved with the Dominion. Could be a huge draw. You couldn't risk NOT having one or lose your patients and referral sources.
