Webinar: 10th Annual Spinal Symposium

Saturday 13th February:

Imaging of the Spinal Cord: Spotting Abnormalities and Red-Flags - Dr Naga Kandasamy, Consultant Neuroradiologist

Learn how to recognise the signs of spinal cord abnormalities through the eyes of Consultant Neuroradiologist, Dr Naga Kandasamy. We examine the indications, techniques and sequences involved, using case studies of patients who present with tumours in and around the spinal cord, infections, and vascular problems such as those caused by spinal cord ischemia. 


Paediatric Spinal Conditions & Sporting Injuries - Mr Hanny Anwar, Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon

Children’s spines can be a complex site for both the development of curves and injuries in sport. Mr Hanny Anwar examines the diagnosis and assessment of curves, including scoliosis, lordosis and kyphosis. Participating safely in sport to prevent spinal injury - and ensuring the right rehabilitation when an injury does occur - is another crucial area that we will delve into.


Medical Myelopathies - Dr Ben Turner, Consultant Neurologist

The highly knowledgeable Dr Ben Turner presents the range of medical causes of myelopathy, from the common to rare, including laughing gas and HTLV-1. He covers the medical presentations and investigations to carry out, such as X-rays (sometimes with contrast), MRI and electromyograms, before discussing treatment pathways to benefit your patients the most.


Spinal Stenosis, Sciatica & Disc Problems - Mr James Langdon, Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon

Get to grips with all the S’s: Slipped discs, Sciatica and Spinal Stenosis! Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon, Mr James Langdon, uses his wealth of experience in the field to examine case studies and aetiologies of the conditions.

Saturday 6th February:

An Osteopathic, Physiotherapeutic & Chiropractic Guide to The Rheumatic Spine - Dr Taher Mahmud, Consultant Rheumatologist

Spotting the signs of a serious Rheumatic spinal disease early on is crucial. Dr Taher Mahmud explores how to identify the osteoporotic spine (including in young people), and examines inflammatory spinal diseases, such as arthritis and degenerative conditions. Enhance your knowledge of presentation, aetiologies, investigative methods, diagnosis and multidisciplinary rehabilitation approaches.


Fractures and Trauma to the Spine - Mr Bob Chatterjee, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon

A hugely popular and practised speaker, Mr Bob Chatterjee joins us for his fourth Spinal Symposium to present his vast experience with spinal fractures, including Vertebral Compression Fractures and trauma. Mr Chatterjee believes in exhausting conservative options before surgery is necessary, so he ensures you leave equipped to deal with relevant investigation techniques, diagnosis and best-practice treatments.


Chronic Back Pain from a Gut Health & Environment Perspective - Dr Ese Stacey, Consultant in Sport & Exercise Medicine

Risk factors associated with chronic ill-health and inflammation are stated to relate to modifiable metabolic risks, such as obesity, high blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugars as well as diet and smoking. Toxins and other harmful substances in the environment around us can cause such illnesses and pain, including back pain. Join Dr Ese Stacey to discover how your patients can improve their conditions with nutrition, lifestyle and gut health changes.


The Spinal Patient Journey: An Interactive Experience - Dr Keith Bush, Consultant Orthopaedic & Sports Physician

The interface between clinical assessment, investigations and interventions demonstrates how hands-on examination is necessary for accurate diagnosis. Dr Keith Bush illustrates this point by taking us on an exploration of the patient’s journey through an exclusive real-time patient examination followed by an analysis of diagnostic imaging. He discusses the differential diagnosis between cervical spine and shoulder pain, and between lumbar spine and hip conditions. You will have the opportunity to watch every step of the way.

A note from Dr Stacey:

Please note that after more than 30 years of medical practice, I have recently (April 2021) de-registered voluntarily from the General Medical Council (GMC). The reason for this is because my practice (advising and consulting about health - which involves giving advice about diet, your environment and mental/emotional/spiritual health) - falls outside what is required for me to be registered with the GMC. The practice of medicine essentially involves making diagnoses and treating disease with prescriptions or other interventions. My practice does not include this but has a focus on educating you so that you know how your body works in relation to food and the environment. I also help you to identify mental, emotional or spiritual blocks to recovery. I then encourage you to make appropriate changes yourself that will enhance your wellbeing. Of course, if you have a specific diagnosis that arises during our consultations and this diagnosis requires specific medical attention I will advise that you inform your GP or other specialist/s. I will also offer to write to your GP and of course, please do forward any correspondence with me to your GP if you so wish.

After qualifying at the Royal Free Hospital, London in 1978, Dr Bush studied with James Cyriax to become an Orthopaedic Physician. He conducted a number of studies on the use of injection techniques in the management of spinal pain throughout the 80’s and 90’s, publishing in peer review journals such as ‘Spine’ and was awarded his Doctorate by London University in 1992.

He held Honorary Consultant Orthopaedic Surgical posts at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, London in 1994 and 1995 and has been on the GMC Specialist Register since 1996.
