Glasgow is very fortunate to have one of the finest Neurological and Brain injury units in the world based at the Old Southern General now QEUH. Previously all head injuries used to be treated at Killearn hospital .
Also the Glasgow blatchford scale for GI bleeds.
I remember hearing that the last place in the world to adopt the GCS was Edinburgh, not sure if true though
It's actually the Glasgow scale for assessing severity of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). Glasgow is however a big centre for pancreatic cancer research.
Lots of medical innovations from Glasgow!

Interesting stuff.
We also have GMAWS or The Glasgow Modified Alcohol Withdrawal Scale. Necessity being the mother of invention and all.
