Every figure on this page is a provisional placeholder, not yet checked against a named source or measurement date.

Canada-wide average, diagnostic imaging.
Across specialties, 2025 national estimate.
Booked and completed inside one visit.
Same-day consult on preliminary findings; the full report varies by centre. KMI and Hanshin Medipia publish two to three weeks; Hanaro publishes no figure at all (measured 2026-07-28). You are not in Korea waiting for it. Reports are sent by email (or by post, at one centre) once ready, after you have already flown home, so a longer report does not mean a longer trip.
