Physician Associates are being renamed to Physician Assistants because the public was confused about their role. But here’s what’s truly confusing: A physician assistant now starts on a salary that’s nearly £10,000 more than a fully qualified doctor. Read that again. Doctors

A flexible endoscope is introduced through the mouth, under sedation to visualise the upper gastrointestinal tract and locate the source of bleeding. This is usually performed by gastroenterology physicians #Dottir #UpperGIBleed #Endoscopy #InterventionalProcedure

CT angiography helps localise GI bleeds, assess vessels, and guide embolisation especially when endoscopy fails. Fast, non-invasive, and crucial in acute GI bleed workup. #Dottir #CTAngiography #GIbleed #Embolisation #Endoscopy

Tommy Two Tokes 🦀 #JoinVoteWin Polly Toynbee Can anyone genuinely explain why a day 1 physician is paid £10,000 LESS than a day 1 physician assistant? Maybe we should get rid of them and employ real doctors. Wes Streeting

MRCP stands for Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography. It is a special type of MRI that shows the bile ducts, gallbladder, and pancreatic duct without using contrast. #Dottir #MRCP #BiliaryImaging #PancreaticDuct #RadiologyEducation #NonInvasive #InterventionalRadiology

Classic left staghorn calculus filling the renal pelvis and calyces. Often linked to chronic infections like Proteus or Klebsiella. Can lead to sepsis or renal failure. CT KUB is gold standard. Treatment: PCNL with antibiotics or drainage if needed. #Dottir #StaghornCalculus

Prostatic artery embolisation (PAE) is a minimally invasive treatment for BPH. Using ultrasound & fluoroscopy, IRs block blood flow to shrink the prostate, easing pressure on the bladder & urethra. Preserves sexual function, fewer complications, faster recovery. #PAE #BPH #IR

Liver radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive treatment that uses heat to destroy cancer cells in the liver, targeting tumours precisely while preserving healthy tissue. It’s ideal for smaller tumours and offers quick recovery with low complication rates. #Dottir

platinumpizza™ Sure, after they go to medical school, complete Foundation Programme and complete Specialty Training like the rest of us - I’ve got no problem with it at all.

Balazs (🦋cannulaservice.hibalazs.net) The Royal College of Radiologists Dr Ross Nieuwoudt National Health Serf The BSIR had already voted on this issue in 2023. "Should the BSIR call for a halt to PA recruitment in IR until a defined scope of practice is introduced and they are formally regulated by a governing body other than the GMC?" 112 for, 8 against.

The Royal College of Radiologists Arun Baksi Helpful to know why PAs are felt to be the solution when radiology is over subscribed & 1000s of residents are rejected / year 2024: Clinical Radiology ST1 3719 applicants 312 posts Competition ratio 12:1 Clinical Radiology ST3 107 applicants 17 posts Competition ratio 6:1

In the meantime, will you take any action to prevent or dissuade PAs from working in IR in an unlimited and loosely defined role? There are PAs working in IR in a children's hospital without those constraints. Will you act on this information?

How about Image-Guided Surgery becomes an independent specialty and has freedom from The Royal College of Radiologists bureaucracy to train the thousands of doctors who want to pursue a career in the specialty of IR instead of non-doctors?

"Every hour lost to poorly designed administrative activity is an hour not spent examining, teaching, or treating." Administrative overload harms patient care and wastes clinical time, Sammy Arab, MD Karan Hamaad @hamaadkhan.bsky.social bmj.com/content/390/bm…

Liver embolisation (TAE) is a minimally invasive IR procedure for liver tumours. Using a catheter + microparticles, blood supply to the tumour is blocked, slowing growth. Unlike TACE, no chemo drugs are used. Often an option when surgery isn’t suitable. #Dottir
