GPDA Chest X-ray Direct to CT Pathway

Launched 5 February 2024, this pilot allows patients with abnormal chest X-ray findings to receive a same-day CT scan. This reduces diagnostic delays for primary lung cancer. 

Patient results

X-ray results are provided back to the referrer within five working days. If not received enquire by email

For Straight to CT pathway, CDC radiologists are required to report CT scans within 48 hours and notify the referring physician through standard channels, such as report notifications or emails to the referring GP.
