The Health Service Executive's National Service Plan 2019 sets out the objective to increase access for primary care patients to diagnostic imaging services. This supports the overall vision in Sláintecare to develop community services and deliver a greater range of services as locally as possible.

As this question relates in part to services at a particular location, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the HSE for a direct reply.
