Radiology service model for NHS Nightingale Hospital Yorkshire and the Humber
Services not available at NHS Nightingale Yorkshire and the Humber on site
Interventional Radiology
General Ultrasound (doppler ultrasound for DVT is available by prior arrangement).
Radiographers are on-site 24/7 to provide continuous access to plain film x-ray and CT scanning. They will be readily accessible either when working on the floor in the wards (mobile digital x-ray) or on an on-site call basis (x-ray and CT).
Radiographers will not remain in a clinical area if there is no imaging to be performed.
If you have requested any type of imaging please call either the plain film Radiographer for your hall or CT Radiographers to inform them there is an examination to undertake and to discuss the most appropriate time for this to happen.
The Radiologists are available on the telephone for advice and also to carry out hot reporting.
On-call radiologists are accessible via the Harrogate District Hospital switchboard. The night service is provided by our teleradiology partner Medica.
It is recommended that where possible, CT scans are carried out during the daytime hours. However a 24/7 on-call service is available for unavoidable emergency cases.
