The development is part of an £86m project to install MRI and CT scanner facilities at each of the three hospitals in Norfolk and Waveney.

The James Paget’s Diagnostic Centre will have an additional Ultrasound imaging equipment and an X-ray room as well as an MRI and CT scanner.

RG Carter started construction in early July and is scheduled to have the new facilities operational by summer 2024. The centre is located to the north of the James Paget’s site, adjacent to the Louise Hamilton Centre and the recently opened Concept Ward.
