If you are preparing for the Senior Diagnostic Imaging and Nuclear Medicine Technician opposition exams at INGESA, there is a change you need to know about before the deadline closes. The Resolution of October 6, 2026 modifies the original call from September 25, 2026 to clarify a fundamental operational aspect: where the exam is held and how to indicate it in the application.
This is not a change in the bases or access requirements. It is a specific correction, but with direct consequences for those who have already registered and for those who still have time to do so.
What does this regulation establish?
The original resolution of September 25, 2026 called for the selection process to access fixed positions of statutory personnel in the category of Senior Diagnostic Imaging and Nuclear Medicine Technician at INGESA, through the competitive examination system and open access.
The correction published on October 14 introduces the following specific clarifications:
| Aspect | Before (call 25/09/2026) | After (correction 06/10/2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Place of exam | Not clearly specified | Ceuta and Melilla (explicitly indicated) |
| City choice in application | Not expressly included | The applicant must indicate the chosen city in their application |
| Effect of city choice on position selection | Not clarified | The choice of exam city does not influence the subsequent choice of position if the process is passed |
| Application deadline | Original deadline | Reopened after publication of this resolution in the BOE (from 14/10/2026) |
| Obligation to resubmit already submitted application | Not applicable | Not necessary to repeat it, unless you wish to change the exam city |
A particularly relevant point: the chosen exam city does not condition the subsequent choice of position. That is, an applicant who takes the exam in Ceuta can apply for positions in Melilla, and vice versa, if they pass the selection process. This eliminates any strategic incentive in choosing a venue.
Economic and operational impact
This regulation has no direct economic impact on companies or private organizations. Its relevance is strictly operational for applicants to the selection process and for human resources managers in the public health sector in Ceuta and Melilla.
From an operational perspective, the most relevant aspects are:
- Reopening of the application deadline: those who have not yet registered have a new opportunity window from October 14, 2026.
- Modification of existing registration: applicants who have already submitted an application and wish to change the exam city must do so through the INGESA IPS platform. It is not necessary to submit a new complete application.
- No impact on position selection: the decision about the exam city is logistical, not strategic. It does not affect the order of position preferences or the final score.
Who does it affect?
- Applicants registered in the original call (Resolution of September 25, 2026) who wish to change the exam city (Ceuta or Melilla).
- Applicants who have not yet registered and wish to participate in the selection process for fixed positions of Senior Diagnostic Imaging and Nuclear Medicine Technician at INGESA.
- Human resources managers and selection officers at INGESA in Ceuta and Melilla, who must take into account the reopening of the deadline and the clarification on venues.
- Advisors and opposition exam preparers in the healthcare field who accompany candidates in this process.
Practical example
Imagine that an applicant submitted their application on October 1, 2026, before the publication of this correction, and chose Ceuta as the exam city. After reading the resolution of October 14, they decide they prefer to take the exam in Melilla for logistical reasons.
In that case, they do not need to submit a new application. They only need to access the INGESA IPS platform, locate their registration and modify the selected exam city. The rest of their application data remains unchanged.
Furthermore, this applicant can rest assured: even though they take the exam in Melilla, they can apply for positions in Ceuta if they are available and they prefer them, since the choice of exam city does not condition the choice of position once the selection process is passed.
What should applicants do now?
- Check if you have already submitted an application: access the INGESA IPS platform and verify that your registration is correctly recorded with the exam city you want (Ceuta or Melilla).
- If you want to change the exam city: modify your registration on the IPS platform. It is not necessary to submit a new complete application. Do this before the reopened deadline closes on October 14, 2026.
- If you have not yet registered: take advantage of the reopening of the deadline to submit your application. Indicate in it the chosen exam city (Ceuta or Melilla). Remember that this choice does not affect your subsequent preference for positions.
- Confirm that the city choice is only logistical: do not make strategic decisions based on the exam venue. The chosen city does not influence the order of position selection if you pass the process.
- Consult the official resolution: review the full text of the Resolution of October 6, 2026 in the BOE to learn any additional details about the process.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to resubmit my application if I already registered before October 14?
No. If you have already submitted an application in the original call, you do not need to repeat it. You only need to modify your registration on the INGESA IPS platform if you wish to change the chosen exam city (Ceuta or Melilla).
Where is the Senior Diagnostic Imaging Technician opposition exam held at INGESA?
The opposition exercise will be held in Ceuta and Melilla, according to the correction published on October 14, 2026. The applicant must indicate in their application which of the two cities they choose as the exam venue.
Does the chosen exam city influence which positions I can apply for if I pass?
No. The choice of exam city (Ceuta or Melilla) is exclusively logistical. It does not condition the subsequent choice of position if the selection process is passed. You can take the exam in one city and apply for positions in the other.
How do I change the exam city in my already submitted application?
You must access the INGESA IPS platform, locate your registration and modify the field corresponding to the exam city. It is not necessary to submit a new complete application. Do this within the deadline reopened from October 14, 2026.
When is the application deadline reopened after this correction?
The deadline for submitting applications is reopened from the publication of this resolution in the BOE, that is, from October 14, 2026. Consult the official resolution to find out the exact closing date of the new deadline.
