How do I book a private X-ray in the UK?
You can book a private X-ray in the UK through GetScanned by selecting your body area, choosing a clinic and date, and completing secure online payment, without any GP referral required.
Booking a private X-ray through GetScanned is fast, straightforward, and doesn’t require a GP referral. Simply select your body area (e.g., chest, hand, foot, spine), choose a CQC-registered clinic near you, and pick a convenient date and time.

X-rays use a small amount of radiation to create images of bones, joints, or soft tissues. They’re commonly used to detect:
- Fractures or dislocations
- Chest or lung issues
- Joint and spine changes
- Dental or sinus problems
Your scan will be performed by a qualified radiographer, and images are interpreted by a consultant radiologist. Results are usually available within 24–48 hours and can be securely downloaded from your GetScanned account.
Private X-rays are ideal for patients who want quick answers without NHS delays or referrals. Prices are typically £100–£200, depending on the scan area and complexity.
