Radiology (scans and imaging)
Appointment information
It’s important that patients attend their planned diagnostic imaging appointments. If you don’t attend a booked appointment, there could be a significant wait for another one.
Our radiology department is doing everything possible to minimise the COVID-19 risk to you during your visit and maximising service delivery to ensure patients are seen promptly and efficiently.
Please attend alone for your appointment. If you require assistance, one adult will be able to attend with you but may be asked to wait in the waiting room. Please do not bring children to your appointment as they are not able to accompany you into the scan rooms and we are unable to provide child care.
If cannot make your imaging appointment, please call the UHS radiology department to cancel or rebook on 023 8120 4015.
