He completed his MSc at the University of Brighton to gain his MACP membership and now supervises post graduate MSc students from the University of Hertfordshire and University of Brighton. Neil is also educational lead for the AP and physiotherapy teams.Neil has developed an interest in the management of hip pathology throughout his AP career and has benefited from working alongside Orthopaedic Consultants and Radiologists across Coastal West Sussex. He particularly enjoys being able to apply his knowledge and understanding of image interpretation of the pelvis, when rehabilitating patients with hip pathology in physiotherapy. He lives in the South Coast and enjoys surfing when there is a wave, SUP’ing when it is flat, and mountain biking when he can’t get out in the water. Amie Coombs MSc, BSc (Hons), MCSP, HCPC Amie is an Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner specialising in the lower quadrant including lumbar, hip and knee pain. She additionally works as a First Contact Practitioner for Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust. She has a keen interest in the hip and pelvis, which has been developed over the last 9 years through her experience of working alongside the Orthopaedic Consultants and Radiologists. Following the completion of her lower quadrant module and ESP module including radiology interpretation, and having experienced hip pain personally through competetive running she developed a passion and drive to excel in the interpretation of hip and pelvic interpretation and using this vital skill in the best patient care for her patients. Amie has also worked at the University of Brighton lecturing to MSc students and is retained to develop this further in the near future. Her personal interests are in long distance running, snowboarding, climbing and she has competed in many ultramarathons. |

Course Outline: Are you a new FCP or APP who requests or would like to start requesting imaging and feel overwhelmed when looking at pelvic and hip imaging? What do they mean by normal? How do these results impact my patient? What if the X-Ray does not fit your patient clinically? MACP hope to answer all your questions by developing the necessary tools to systematically interpret these images and decipher this potentially complex area.
The integrated imaging course for the hip and pelvis is a 1-day course aimed at AP/FCP’s with the desire to develop their skills in the management of patients with hip pain. It is also appropriate for senior MSK clinicians with limited or no imaging experience. It will provide guidance on requesting, more advanced interpretation of hip and pelvis imaging and how to utilise this information for best patient care.There will be interactive case studies, clinical discussion, break out groups, polls, and question and answer sessions with up-to-date evidence-based practice to support the information provided. These case studies will be used to introduce key theoretical concepts that are important when interpreting hip radiology. It is mapped to the FCP roadmap and core capabilities framework. It can be taken as a one-day stand-alone course if a specific area is only needed to be covered for the participant, or could be integrated with the lumbar spine day.
By the end of the course(s) you will:
• Know the indication for requesting basic imaging for the hip and pelvis
• Have a structured method of looking at and interpreting images
• Understand where imaging plays a role clinically and pit falls and advantages in the use of imaging and patient care
• Have an understanding of what is normal and what is abnormal in these images
• Have an idea of resources to help you develop your skills
• Discuss how you interpret imaging, imaging reports and how you discuss this with your MSK patients
You will not:
Be legally qualified to request radiology
Be legally covered to interpret radiological examinations or write imaging reports
Know everything about imaging these anatomical areas
