It was noted that the parents were unsure how the fracture may have happened and there had been no recent accidents of falls.

(2) I note his evidence that there is no uniformity of Vitamin D testing in the United Kingdom and that Vitamin D is difficult to measure. The first section lists common clinical presentations, the differential causes and the appropriate imaging pathways needed to confirm the diagnosis, with recent imaging advances for each condition.

S has suffered multiple fractures which have occurred on at least three separate occasions. She was born in 1979. There is no evidence of an incident of any kind suggestive or on which an inference could be drawn that either of the parents was responsible for an injury (other of course than the X-rays of the fractures). The maternal grandmother's position can most usefully be seen as set out in her position statement of 12th March 2012.
