I know you are in the field, and know more about this than I do, but that number is obviously pure horseshit. You made it up, and it is orders of magnitude off the correct number. I might believe that 1000 people a day can't get this done. But "millions" is untrue.

I believe that "1000 people a day" are subject to some factor which contraindicates a diagnostic imaging study they would otherwise have, in every moderately-populated metropolitan area. This is not rare or uncommon in any way, and there are a lot of people in the world.

The number I stated was an extrapolated speculation which may be slightly hyperbolic
