Average median waiting times from general practitioner (GP) referral to the patient receiving the test are published for diagnostic imaging scans every month by NHS England, most recently for November 2016, and are shown in the following table. Waiting times between the tests being performed and the results being conveyed to the patient are not published centrally.
Average median waiting times from GP referral to test for diagnostic imaging scans, November 2016
Imaging scan | Waiting time in weeks |
Magnetic resonance imaging | 2.0 |
Computerised tomography | 1.6 |
Non obstetric ultrasound | 1.9 |
Barium Enema | 1.5 |
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry | 1.8 |
Source: Diagnostic waiting times, NHS England
No assessment has been made of how much of the waiting time is attributable to National Health Service technician staff shortages, or of how much delays in early diagnosis are estimated to cost the NHS.

It is for local National Health Service trusts to decide how many cardiac technicians they employ in their area. We will continue to work with industry and the NHS to promote patient access to new technologies, but it is important to realise that not all technologies are appropriate for everyone—it is up to clinicians to make a decision in discussion with patients about the most suitable treatment in each case.

The non medical staff grouping includes nurses, health care assistants, technicians, administration staff etc. but does not include

£23,400 in 2003. These figures are based on the average earnings of medical laboratory scientific officers and medical laboratory

Mr. Denham: The training and recruitment of prosthetic and orthotic technicians are the responsibility of local National Health
Service employers.
The recently published "Review of Workforce Planning" acknowledges that there are a number of staff groups playing important roles
in service delivery who currently sit outside mainstream workforce planning and funding arrangements. The review states that it is
important that their training and development needs are properly identified and considered.
A National Advisory Group has begun work to determine the current profile of the orthotist and prosthetist workforce and education
arrangements. The analysis will include consideration of the number, training and role of orthotic and prosthetic technicians.

Mr. Austin: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what steps he plans to take in respect of the survey published recently by the
MSF union on levels of pay and morale of medical technical officers in the NHS. [112443]
Mr. Denham: [holding answer 1 March 2000]: We recognise that the Scientific and Technical staff groups employed and trained in the
National Health Service have been experiencing recruitment, retention and a range of other human resource problems. Therefore, we
aim to develop a human resource strategy that will underpin the education and training, recruitment and retention and general career
development for NHS HCHS scientists and technicians. Medical Technical Officers (MTOs) are a part of this work force.
This work will be taken forward as an integral part of the work programme of the National Advisory Group for Scientists and
Technicians (NAGST).
NAGST is collaborating with the professions to ensure the National Health Service has an adequate supply of competent scientists and
technicians. There are three strands to the current work programme: collection of work force data; work force planning;
implementation.
A pay offer is with the staff side of the Professional and Technical Staffs' B Whitley Council covering Medical Technical Officers
for: an increase of 3 per cent. or £250, whichever is the higher for 1999-2000; an increase of 3.25 per cent. or £300 whichever is
the higher for 2000-01; and in the context of agreement on the negotiations on Agenda for Change (including the principle of pay
linkage as set out in paragraph 7.4 of the Joint Framework of Principles and Agreed Statement on the Way Forward issued on 8 October
1999) and the joint commitment to lifelong learning, a minimum RPI(X) at December 2000 reported in January 2001, plus 0.5 per cent.

Mr. Ruane: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what is the current average starting pay for (a) hospital cleaners, (b) hospital

Mr. Denham: [holding answer 6 March 2000]: It is not possible to identify separately the average starting pay for hospital porters
or cleaners on national terms and conditions. It is a matter for individual employers to determine the appropriate pay scales for
each occupational group within the ancillary pay structure, based upon the grading definitions contained within the Ancillary Staffs
Handbook.
The current pay scale for Trainee Medical Laboratory Scientific Officers (MLSOs) is:
_________________________________________________________________________________________________.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________.
Pay is negotiated in the Professional and Technical Staffs B Whitley Council. The NHS Management Side has offered to improve the pay
of Trainee MLSOs. If accepted this offer would produce a new pay scale for Trainee MLSOs, effective from 1 April 1999, of:
