BioCare Diagnostics, Inc. was founded in 1987 by Kenneth Rice, MD, FACC, as an independent diagnostic imaging facility. Our first location was opened in Brookline, MA providing diagnostic Cardiac Ultrasound (Echocardiography), Exercise Tolerance Testing, Stress-Echocardiography testing, Holter monitoring, and event monitoring. In 1993, with Joseph Polak, M.D. as our medical adviser, we expanded our range of services to include vascular imaging, comprising cerebrovascular testing, peripheral extremity venous and arterial ultrasounds, and abdominal vascular exams.
In 1995 BioCare continued to expand, opening a women’s diagnostic imaging center in Crown Colony, Quincy, MA providing:
• Gynecological ultrasound
• Abdominal ultrasound
• Obstetrical ultrasound including Level II and Level III
• Fetal non-stress testing (NSTs)
• Biophysical profiles
• Nuchal Translucencies (NTs)

• Screening and diagnostic digital mammography
• Breast ultrasound with and without biopsies

Our Screening and Diagnostic Digital Mammography Division is under the medical direction of James Snider, MD, of Boston Breast Diagnostic Center.
