KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There is a clinical pathway that is followed alongside the option to be referred for scanning if appropriate
• We use each process depending on the clinical situation, but the scans are complementary to each other
• The patient won’t know necessarily know what the most appropriate scan will be, and when you have been screened you will be directed to the most appropriate appointment
• With a scan, it’s important that it’s carried out as part of a process with a clinician
• You can be a clinician and make a referral on the platform
• Ultrasounds are an important scan for peripheral muscular-skeletal conditions
