Kettering General Hospital: X-ray delays 'did not harm patients' A hospital says delays in the reporting of X-ray results has resulted in "no cases of patient harm".
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) had raised concerns about waiting times for radiology results at Kettering General and two other NHS hospitals in England.
It has now called for a limit on how long it takes to report scan results.
Kettering's chief executive Simon Weldon said a backlog, caused in part by the move to a new reporting system in 2016, had "almost been dealt with". BBC Northampton
