NHS diagnostic waits · CT scan
CT NHS waiting times, hospital by hospital
Updated August 2026 · (the NHS diagnostics waiting-list return)
The NHS does not publish scan waiting times for individual hospitals. Each figure below is the current CT queue at the NHS trust that runs that hospital: the list as it stands this month, not a prediction. The headline is the median wait; the % is the share who have already waited more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should. Ranked shortest first.

253 hospitals with a reported CT queue. Each figure is the trust's current DM01 waiting list: a snapshot this month, not a prediction, and the NHS publishes one figure per trust, not per hospital.
How long will you really wait, and how could you go sooner?
Your free companion dashboard compares all four paths for your treatment: wait, switch to a faster NHS hospital, part-private, or fully private. It names the faster hospitals near you, shows what going private would cost, and gives you letters ready to send. You can print it or save it as a PDF. Free, and nothing is locked or paid.
