In order to prepare for the implementation of national health insurance in South Africa, it is necessary to analyse all diagnostic radiology equipment that has been registered in the country, determine the equipment units per capita by imaging modality, and compare SA data with published international data.
Methods The registered diagnostic radiology equipment in the SA Radiation Control Board’s database was broken down by modality, region, and industry. The number of units/million people who have access to services was calculated, and it was compared to publicly available worldwide statistics.
Results The most evenly distributed and easily accessible resource are general X-ray units. The differences between the provinces with the least and most resources in fluoroscopy mammography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are at least ten times greater. Despite the fact that SA’s overall imaging capacity is much higher than that of other nations.
