CT services are essential for diagnosing various conditions in Canada. There are existing challenges with access to these services due to the limited availability of machines, high demand for services, and long wait times. Rural and remote communities may experience additional challenges, as these services are often located in large urban centres.
Canada’s Drug Agency (CDA-AMC) conducted an informal survey among senior medical imaging decision-makers to determine the factors that influence planning for new CT services in rural and remote communities in Canada. To better understand current access to CT services and support future planning, the average population served by CT services in rural and remote communities was also calculated.
