We are currently dealing with a regional IT network problem, which is affecting some of our practice systems. This may result in delays to appointments, prescriptions, referrals, test results, and telephone or online responses.  Please be patient with the practice team who are working through these challenges.

X- Ray Information

X-rays requested by your GP are now by appointment only at RBH

(West Berks still offer a walk in x-ray service.)

If you are booking an appointment for a friend or family member, please select the appointment date and time and log into Swiftqueue using your own NHS app details. You will then be asked who the appointment is for. At this point you can add the family or friends information and then select their name.

Radiology is a medical specialty that uses imaging to diagnose and treat diseases seen within the body. Radiographers and Radiologists use a variety of imaging techniques, such as:

  • X-Ray – uses X-rays to look through tissue to examine bones, cavities and foreign objects.
  • CT (computed tomography) – provides cross-sectional views (slices) of the body allowing disease to be identified and localised.
  • Ultrasound – uses high frequency sound waves. This technique is widely used for the diagnosis of a wide range of abdominal, vascular or musculoskeletal conditions.
  • MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) – provides high quality cross-sectional views of the body without the need for radiation.
