An editorial in The Lancet on March 2, 2019, went further, emphasising: “There is no good news for the NHS (National Health Service)…in all scenarios, depletion of the NHS workforce is inevitable, care for UK nationals living in the EU is uncertain, and access to medicines, vaccines, and devices hangs in the balance”. Indeed, the provision of diagnostic imaging and radiopharmaceuticals for patients with cancer is one key specialty in which the consequences of Brexit are multiple and potentially catastrophic.
