If referred by the GP for CT scan who does it go to first and who will I hear from ? GP or the hospital ? CT scans were abdomen, pelvis and pancreas.

As the tittle says those who have been referred for a CT by your GP after blood results who's tumor markers were significantly elevated or just reffered by the GP for a CT scan on a fast track.

What was the process after the CT ? 

Did the hospital contact with results or was it your GP once the report was done and uploaded to your patients know best portal thing ? 

Does it go automatically to a MDT before results get told / sent to go like it does for the breast clinic or is it a different process ? 

Thank you 

  • Hi Natz,

    Following a 'mass' being found on my liver following an ultrasound, my GP referred me for an urgent CT scan, but at the same time I was also referred through to a hepatology consultant under the two week pathway for suspected pancreatic / liver cancer.  I was given my CT results by the consultant, I was then referred for an urgent MRI scan as they could not tell from the CT scan whether it was benign or malignant.  It was after the consultant got the MRI results that it then went through to the MDT before I got told the results / treatment plan.  

    I would imagine that unless your gp has also referred you directly to the hospital as well, you will get your results from your gp. 

    I hope that you hear something soon, waiting for results is awful!

    Good luck
