question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of how the number of multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging scanners per capita in England compares to (1) France, (2) Germany, and (3) Spain.

uin	HL4568
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/12/2021 answer text <p>This specific assessment has not been made. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development records the number of magnetAic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners per million inhabitants in the United Kingdom. However, this data is UK-wide rather than for England. This data does not differentiate between machine type, therefore data for multi-parametric MRI scanners is not held in the format requested and does not allow this comparison to be made.</p> answering member printed Lord Kamall question first answered 10/12/2021 11:22:49 answering member 4909 label Biography information for Lord Kamall
