Please do not request MRI with contrast
Local pathways only cover MRI without contrast. Please refer for relevant diagnostic- ultrasound, x-ray, etc.- in the first instance- and then Homerton Radiology can escalate- or refer to outpatients.
MRI for MSK
Please refer to Locomotor in the first instance. They have short waits and have access to relevant imaging services if needed- x-ray, ultrasound, MRI.
HUH audits indicate that a significant volume of scans are undertaken when not clinically indicated and the scan results have no bearing on management.
