How long is the wait for an echocardiogram (heart scan) at Hammersmith Hospital?

Half of the people waiting for an echocardiogram (heart scan) at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust have waited longer than 3 weeks. 5% have been waiting more than six weeks, against an NHS standard that fewer than 1% should.
