What to Look for in a Scanning Centre

All centres in the Lola Health network meet these standards, but here's what matters if you're comparing options:

  • Scanner strength — 1.5T is standard and fine for most scans. 3T gives sharper images and is preferred for cardiac, prostate, and neurological imaging.
  • CQC registration — Every centre should be registered with the Care Quality Commission (or equivalent in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland).
  • Radiologist reporting — Your scan should be reported by a consultant radiologist, not a registrar or GP.
  • Accessibility — Check parking, public transport, and ground-floor access if needed.
  • Wait times — Most Lola Health centres offer appointments within a few days.
