Why You Might Need a Radiology Referral
Radiology referrals are essential when your doctor needs an in-depth look at specific areas of your body to diagnose or monitor a condition. These referrals lead to imaging tests—such as X-rays, MRIs, and ultrasounds—that allow your doctor to view internal structures without surgery. This non-invasive method not only helps identify health issues but also aids in tracking progress or confirming a diagnosis.

You can also have your GP contact the imaging centre directly and request that your results be forwarded to them. Please note that we’re unable to send your results to your GP on your behalf.
