Just finished reading Range and similar findings. Lessons learned: 1) don’t peak in high school! 2) have your kids try a ton of different things without expectations or pressure of them being the best

We believe this is the first report of the effect of duration of symptoms on the diagnostic accuracy of TWIST score for testicular torsion. Accuracy goes down with time but still remains very good. jpedsurg.org/article/S0022-3… @NHSGIRFT @NCEPOD @BAPS1953 @BAPUSurgeons @BAUSurology

The Effect of Age and Symptom Duration on the Accuracy of Twist Score for Testicular Torsion in Boys

To study the effect of age and duration of symptoms on accuracy of TWIST score in diagnosing testicular torsion (TT) in boys presenting with acute scrotal pain.

Transfer leads to delay. Delay leads to orchidectomy. But only a few children truly have torsion. Navigating training, experience and investigation publishing.rcseng.ac.uk/epri… @NCEPOD @NHSGIRFT @BAPU @asgbi @BAPS1953

18/18 Our NHS is in a dire state. None of this is due to striking NHS workers, or (just) covid, but due to political choices @10DowningStreet RT if you want this (or the next) government to make the choices to fix this mess now & properly #payrestoration #fixDDRB

We can be better and we are getting there with the help of our radiology colleagues. We need to bring UK practice in line with the rest of the world. Apart from protecting patients from unnecessary surgery, the cost saving implications for the NHS are substantial
