Dr Sahu is a regular invited speaker at national and international conferences and is actively involved in teaching MSK imaging courses and FRCR 2B preparation programmes. He has published ~32 indexed peer-reviewed articles, delivered over 214 lectures and presentations, and serves as a reviewer for leading journals, including the British Medical Journal and the Journal of Hand Surgery.
Yes. I have a unique dual background in Orthopaedics and Radiology, which allows me to offer highly specialised expertise in musculoskeletal and sports imaging.
Having trained and worked as an Orthopaedic Surgeon for nine years before specialising in MSK Radiology, I bring a deep understanding of anatomy, biomechanics, surgical decision-making, and clinical management. This enables more precise diagnosis, clinically relevant reporting, and targeted image-guided interventions.
I have particular expertise in:
This combined surgical insight and radiological expertise is relatively rare and allows me to deliver accurate diagnoses, effective interventions, and practical guidance for patient management.
Yes. I work as an integral part of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), collaborating closely with Orthopaedic Surgeons, Rheumatologists, Sports and Exercise Medicine Physicians, Pain Specialists, Physiotherapists, and General Practitioners.
My role within the MDT includes providing clinically focused MSK imaging, contributing to joint decision-making, and offering image-guided interventional treatments that align with the patient’s overall management plan. My background in Orthopaedic Surgery allows me to bridge the gap between imaging findings and surgical or conservative treatment options, ensuring imaging directly supports patient care.
This collaborative approach ensures accurate diagnosis, coordinated treatment, and optimal outcomes, particularly for complex musculoskeletal and sports-related conditions.
My patients generally experience very good outcomes, particularly because diagnosis and treatment are guided by precise imaging, targeted interventions, and close multidisciplinary collaboration.
Several factors contribute to this including accurate, clinically relevant diagnosis, informed by my dual background in Orthopaedic Surgery and MSK Radiology.
While outcomes naturally vary depending on the condition, severity, and individual factors, many patients experience faster recovery, effective pain relief, and a quicker return to function, particularly following image-guided MSK interventions.
The focus is always on delivering safe, evidence-based care that supports the best possible recovery for each individual patient.
Outside of clinical practice, I enjoy maintaining an active and balanced lifestyle. I enjoy keeping up with developments in sports medicine and orthopaedics, as well as attending conferences and teaching events.
In my spare time, I value time with family and friends, travelling, and staying physically active. These interests help me maintain perspective, energy, and focus, which I bring into my day-to-day clinical work and patient care.
