Scans and tests at Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust, from NHS England's monthly diagnostic waiting times (DM01) for August 2026. The median is the wait so far of patients on the list at the end of the month; “within 6 weeks” is the share of them who had waited less than 6 weeks. Tests with fewer than 10 patients waiting are not shown, as on our national diagnostic pages.
