I have never heard of an IMEX study so it might be that you have the word wrong.

The patient has peripheral vascular disease. The Plan in the report reads "Will perform IMEX?? study as the patient has not had an IMEX?? by her report in the last year."

common tests for PAD would include ABI (ankle brachial indices), Lower extremity ultrasound, lower extremity angiography, MRI angiography....can you hear anything like those?
guessing shorthand? see note - ddd

Just a guess...but I wonder if the dictator is talking in shorthand for IM-imaging EX-extremities.
Imex? - Mel

No ABI, MRI, etc. Dictation was clear as could be sounded just like IMEX. Thanks anyway !

Imex doppler is a hand-held doppler for imaging arteries and veins in patients with peripheral artery disease. Also used for obtaining ABI (arterial brachical index) in larger patients.

Study Should Be Done Jan 27, 2012I think if a study were done, findings would show that the tediousness and repetitiveness and intricacy of the editing required for this particular ASR will slowly but surely drive you insane.

Opinions On Course Of Study And Job Outlook? Mar 31, 2013
Usual story -- I loved MT, but I'm about to be laid off and know another MT job would probably pay minimum wage (if that!).
I'm lucky, in that I'll get enough unemployment to live on and will probably still have enough savings to pay tuition. However, I have no preexisting college degree, and both unemployment and tuition money will only stretch to about 5 quarters.
I've already passed the CPC exam once, can brush up and pass it again.
