After you die at your local hospital, you might go to Heaven or you might go to Hell but, before you die, you will go through the Radiology Department first. .... And your estate will get a bill.

If you don't die, you will still go through the Radiology Department. .... And you will get a bill.

There is always the option of not knowing why you have lost 30 pounds of weight or why you have an agonizing pain but most people want to know and they want to know NOW! .... And they will get a bill.
