HOSPITAL radiographers are to walk out on strike tomorrow, becoming the latest group of NHS specialists to take action in defence of their pay, jobs and the health service.

The Society of Radiographers (SoR), which has more than 28,000 members and is affiliated to the TUC, were on picket lines at 35 NHS trusts in England and will stay out for 48 hours.

The SoR said emergency cover is being provided.
