MASS RADIOGRAPHY
The South West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board provides this
service for the whole of Wimbledon and from time to time one of their units
visits the Borough and carries out surveys of groups of workers and residents
in the area. These surveys are usually of one or two weeks duration. In
addition to these concentrated surveys the Mobile Chest Radiography Unit
visits Wimbledon and Raynes Park each week throughout the year. This
Service which was set up in 1956 primarily for the use of general practitioners'
patients, is now available to all members of the public, as follows:-
WIMBLEDON - Car Park, Grove Hotel (opposite South Wimbledon Tube Station)
Mondays 7.30 - 8.30 p.m.
RAYNES PARK - Raynes Park Station, Grand Drive Entrance.
Thursdays 7.30 - 8.30 p.m.
I am indebted to the Medical Director of the Mass Radiography Service
for the following particulars of Persons examined and abnormalities found in
the Wimbledon area. As these facilities are available to all, the figures
do not necessarily relate to Wimbledon residents only.
