@TomSanders4 @DrEilidhMaria Looking on their website, any of the scans that use ionising radiation require a referral from a relevant HCP, or are reviewed by a consultant radiologist who will be the one to order the scan

@itsjustrosanna @DrEilidhMaria Just send your question to the FOI team, and if they come back claiming an exemption, and it seems fishy, req a review (e.g. when they said the info would be published, I asked them to confirm which committee and importantly if the mins would normally be published!)

@cleanairwhereuk @DrEilidhMaria @hazardscampaign @LeedsHospitals In order to refer a patient to receive ionising radiation, you must be a registered healthcare professional registered by a body from section 25(3) of the National Health Service Reform and Health Care Professions Act (), no PAs as they aren't registered!
