How We Work

Treating you, not just the images. W27 provides fast, accurate diagnosis of musculoskeletal symptoms and conditions using the latest state-of-the-art imaging facilities.

Why you may be here

You may be looking for diagnostic scan after an injury. Or because you have been advised you need to undergo a scan and are looking for a radiologist you can trust. Or you may be a GP, sports physician or other medical professional wishing to refer a patient, or seeking a second opinion about a diagnosis.

We work directly with patients and referring clinicians to provide the answers to your questions.

Whether you are a patient or a clinician looking for a radiology test or scans, W27 will give you:

Dr Subhasis Basu is a Consultant Musculoskeletal radiologist at Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Foundation Trust and founder of W27. His NHS base within a Tertiary Centre of Excellence in Orthopaedics, enables Dr Basu to routinely scan and have greater experience around the diagnosing and treating of common and uncommon musculoskeletal ailments.

Dr Basu is experienced in diagnosing various types of musculoskeletal problems, from common to lesser known conditions, and works closely within a multidisciplinary team in order to achieve the best patient care.

We offer scanning at state-of-the-art facilities across the North-West and London utilising the latest scanners and software. Another example is access to open MRI scanners which maybe useful for patients who find conventional scanners claustrophobic.

A professional, friendly service provided in a calm, relaxed environment by specialist staff.

Appointments at a time and location to suit you.

A choice of six testing sites at present but always looking to expand.

A simple, clear explanation of symptoms in everyday language and a summary of the salient points with potential subsequent treatment options.
