Radsource Signs Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics

Brentwood, TN " March 1, 2005 - Radsource, a leading provider of orthopaedic imaging solutions, announced today that it is has commenced MRI professional interpretations for the Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics (CSMO) in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

"Radsource is quite pleased to add CSMO to its list of customers," stated Mark Awh, M.D., Radsource President. "CSMO is a highly regarded orthopaedic practice that serves numerous patients throughout Eastern Tennessee as well as Northern Georgia and Alabama. Their home base, Chattanooga, was the last major market in Tennessee in which we did not have a client. For Radsource to be so well accepted throughout our home state is particularly gratifying."

"The quality of the interpretations and report turnaround were the key factors behind our decision to utilize Radsource," stated Becky Burnett, CEO of CSMO. "This decision was not undertaken lightly. Although Radsource came highly recommended by one of our orthopaedic colleagues, our due diligence included the review of actual interpretations performed by Radsource radiologists, and the difference in reporting style and content was apparent to our surgeons. Since we have begun utilizing Radsource, we have noted a dramatic improvement in both report turnaround and referring physician satisfaction."
