How long is the wait for a bone density scan (DEXA) at Pilgrim Hospital?

This figure is for United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs Pilgrim Hospital, and it is the current bone density scan queue that applies to you here — the list as it stands this month, not a prediction.

Half of the people waiting for a bone density scan (DEXA) at United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust have waited longer than 3 weeks. 4% have been waiting more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should.
