Our History
In 1980, Dr. Sid Pion and the late Dr. Jack Korsower founded Community Radiology in Olney, Maryland. The practice soon expanded with offices in Bethesda, Germantown and Silver Spring, Maryland. In 1988, Community Radiology partnered with MedStar Montgomery Medical Center (formerly Montgomery General Hospital) to open Montgomery Community Magnetic Imaging Center (MCMIC). Over time, Community Radiology has grown to encompass 18 centers in four counties.
Today, CRA is partnered with RadNet, Inc., a national leader in diagnostic imaging. With this partnership, Community Radiology is affiliated with more than 390 centers in California, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Florida. For more information about RadNet, Inc., click here.
