Your Child's Tests

Your doctor may need more tests to evaluate a musculoskeletal problem. Usually these are imaging studies like X-rays and MRIs, which take an inside look at your child's bones and muscles.

If your doctor asks you to schedule these tests before your next visit, please call our main number, 1-800-TRY-CHOP (1-800-879-2467), to make your appointments.

Please note that you may need additional referral forms from your insurance company or your child's doctor for these services. If you are being referred from your primary doctor, you may need to see a Children's Hospital physician before any of these tests can be ordered.
