Key Discussion Points

Dan Fascia attended to give an update from YIC:

• Intelerad moving on, with MYHT and CHFT now linked
• Additional work also taking place in terms of the regional pricing matrix
• Central team is expanding - radiographer lead appointed and radiographer delivery manager now in post
• Website is continuously evolving and will be the platform where protocols are published
• It was confirmed that links can be added to the wesbite that are not specifically a YIC protocol/document

CT Protocols

Standardised CT protocols is something that the group would want published on the YIC website. It was agreed to touch base with Helen Woodley from LTHT to see what we could agree on and publish as regional protocols on the YIC website.

YIC Paeds Priorities

• Scoliosos Protocols
• Jenny Walsh agreed to take the lead on neuro pathways, to produce minimum data sets for GA.
• Ultra Strong mangnets- new guidance had been shared. There was confusion on how strictly the guidance needed to be followed. Helen agreed to check this with Imran.
• Bone age imaging- regional variation. could be potential to address this within YIC?

Post-Mortem Imaging

It was agreed that for children, skeletal surveys were carried out if requested by the coroner, but brain imaging is not carried out.

For sudden death, there is no standarised protocol.
