@ianbeckingham: Another beautiful sunny day in Nottingham. Looks like most of the trainees survived the night #AUGISt15

#DDF2015 - so thanks everyone again for a healthy debate and see you all at DDF next week

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@chrisvthompson #DDF2015 - definitely - not surgery for the feint harted so should be in skilled hands but we should be upping the rates

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@davidhewin @howard_smart @DDFConference15 @Kesavan_Kandiah #DDF2015 - hardly an indication for OGD then - and how long did they follow them

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@howard_smart @Kesavan_Kandiah #DDF2015 is there an association between OGD and GS!?

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@martinswadley @DDFConference15 @Augishealth #DDF2015 Thank you for contributing martin

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

#DDF2015 - Yes I think thats the take home message - more selective use of MRCP and save resource and cost. Bit like where we were with ERCP

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@howard_smart @Kesavan_Kandiah #DDF2015 EGD?

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@martinswadley @WMRC_UK #DDF2015 - hoping Jane Blazeby will be doing some studies going forward with AUGIS to resolve some of these Q's

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@Kesavan_Kandiah @pcleeder #DDF2015 do you mean the OTC v MRCP debate? - Its down to optimal cost and resource usage

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

I think this slide represents some of our reluctance at just going straight to LC&OTC rather than pre-op Ix. #DDF2015

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@howard_smart - SWORD data - look it up via AUGIS website. If probe email me - will be published soon

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@Iraqi_Surgeon #DDF2015 - scope is 5mm in most centres ; plus a bit of wiggle room - I would say not <8mm

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@pawanlekharaju @DDFConference15 #DDF2015 - if you believe in SOD manometry it would be less risky - young women with normal ducts v risky

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@howard_smart @NatalieBlencowe #DDF2015 - A fair compromise!

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

#DDF2015 Look at variation in LC rates in UK for admissions with Acute Cholecystitis - talk about post-code lottery

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@martinswadley @NatalieBlencowe #DDF2015 - good Q. If abnormal lfts persist post op - then consider MRCP if normal I would assume its bubble

[ian beckingham @ianbeckingham]

@pawanlekharaju @DDFConference15 #DDF2015 not unless history of AP or proven stones in duct or microlithiasis in AP on EUS
