Abstract
Background: Abdominal X-rays (AXRs) are a common admission investigation of the General Surgical (GenSurg) patient. The average cost of AXR is £27, with a radiation of 0.7 mSv. They are over requested and out with Royal College of Radiologists (RCR) guidelines. This closed loop audit was done in-order to reduce the number of inappropriate requests. We aim to achieve 70% compliance to RCR-guidelines. This will save money and reduce unnecessary radiation.
