Great Presentation

This is so relevant for US. So many requests coming in with minimal clinical details! usually just RUQ Pain. I utilize the BMUS vetting guidelines and am always faced with angry GPs demanding why their scan has been rejected. Very happy to hear other trusts also fighting to stop these vague requests as they just want to send people for placebo scans.
