General x-ray examinations do not require an appointment but if the practice is very busy patients with appointments are seen before those without.

If you are to have an ultrasound, special examination (e.g. barium studies) or CT, you will need an appointment. Please phone our Call Centre 0800 426 723 or visit your local Hamilton Radiology practice to make this appointment.

If you have any non-urgent questions or comments please fill out the online form here.

Mammography
A mammogram is a special type of x-ray used only for the breast. Mammography can be used either to look for very early breast cancer in women without breast symptoms (screening) or to examine women who do have breast symptoms (diagnostic).
 
What to expect?

You will need to undress from the waist up.  One of your breasts will be positioned between two plastic plates which will flatten the breast slightly. Most women find that this is a bit uncomfortable, but not painful. Generally two x-rays are taken of each breast. It is also useful to compare the results with earlier examinations and you should take any previous mammography results with you.
