Moving away from the area of radiology, I wish to raise the practice of people now providing scanning services, which is totally unregulated. I recently heard of a person who had a scan on a Saturday and was advised that the baby she was carrying had died but there was no mechanism in place to refer her on to a medical practitioner. A mother was left in limbo over a weekend to deal with that new information provided by someone offering private scanning. There is no regulation of that area.
