Sharing Radiology Images with Emory Healthcare

Patients, family members, and other healthcare facilities can share the results of radiology studies (X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, and ultrasounds)that they completed outside of Emory. Using a tool called Powershare, located within MyChart, Emory Healthcare teams will be able to view your images after you have uploaded them.

Note: Patients can still bring CDs/DVDs with them to appointments.
