Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In 2004, Alliance Medical signed an pound 80m deal to provide 635,000 scans to NHS patients over five years. The company argues its mobile scanners offer flexibility to meet demand while the NHS fills the shortfall in the diagnostics workforce. Critics point to problems including longer waits and slow communication between the company and the NHS.
