The app will allow you to view and easily share your results with other health professionals. Once your results are ready to view, you will receive a text message containing a web link.

Your report will reach your account seven days after your examination. You will be able to access any future results performed by North Shore Radiology & Nuclear Medicine, by using the My NSR app to log into your account. If you need assistance with the app please email help@nsrnm.com.au with a description of the problem. Please Note: Your doctor will be able to access your images and report as soon as they are available. You should always return to your doctor to discuss your results.
