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.

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 you are unable to attend your imaging appointment, please contact the appropriate UHS radiology department on the following numbers.

CT scans 023 8120 3978
MRI scans 023 8120 6588
Cardiac MRI 023 8120 4833.
Nuclear medicine 023 8120 6627
Adult x-ray and ultrasound 023 8120 4015
Paediatric x-ray and ultrasound 023 8120 4429
