Not getting political but it's a crime what diagnostic imaging costs even today. It costs less to have a probe stuck up your butt and a needle stuck through your rectum and into your prostate than it costs to get an MRI, which yields more and better information.

At least for those of us who tend to get hurt vs get sick, x-rays are pretty cheap.

We're lucky, in that we still have the NHS - despite various governments' chipping away at it. Free at the point of need. D.
