OPEN MRIs

Requests for approval for MRI referral should be send directly to the EBI team.  Email:  nelondonicb.hcdpas@nhs.net

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.
