Proud to announce my latest addition to the RADS Classification Scheme, standardising our approach to colleagues, reducing ambiguity, informing referring clinicians
COCK-RADS™
Whilst lacking true empirical data, I feel it would happily sit within the @RadiologyACR’s scheme

🏆 BJS Academy Article of the Month: The retiring surgeon
When is the right time for a surgeon to step back? And what does the next chapter of a surgical career look like?
In our latest Article of the Month, Dr Paul McCoubrie returns with another instalment of his popular View from the Dark Side series, taking a characteristically witty and thought-provoking look at ageing, retirement and the changing priorities of a surgical career.
From stepping away from on-call duties to exploring opportunities in teaching, mentoring and beyond, he considers why retirement need not mean leaving medicine behind entirely.

🩺 The retiring surgeon: When is it time to step back?
How do surgeons navigate the later stages of their careers? And does retirement have to mean leaving surgery behind entirely?
In the latest View from the Dark Side, Paul McCoubrie takes a characteristically humorous look at ageing, changing professional priorities and the growing flexibility available to surgeons approaching retirement.
From stepping away from on-call duties to embracing teaching, mentoring and new roles, he explores why winding down need not mean stopping altogether.

It’s been a while since I named a law in honor of myself. So here goes. The Jha Maxim “optimism in autonomous medical AI is inversely proportional to the time one actually spends in clinical medicine”.

Few snaps from tonight’s partial eclipse. We got about 92% here in Bristol.
First time I’ve got the exposure right and caught some sunspots!

Doing my last on-call tonight. Off the radiology on-call rota after 26 years.
I’ve jinxed it now, haven’t I? It’s going to be a shocker.

My wife bought this book recently and I was disappointed to find out it was nothing to do with long exposure radiographs

Have a look at this child’s forearm. Sore after they fell over.
What do you think?

Because the capitellum is not ossified, the radial head articulation is difficult to see but it should generally be held firmly adjacent to ulna by the annular ligament
So if it deviates away from the ulna, that’s abnormal. Plus there shouldn’t an elbow effusion (arrow)
