Police searching for a missing hospital consultant have released CCTV footage as part of their efforts to find him.
Detectives were following up a number of possible sightings of Dr Richard Stevens on Friday as well as monitoring his mobile phone and bank records.
The last confirmed sighting of the 54-year-old was when he arrived for work on Monday at the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital, in Salford, Greater Manchester.
His distraught family have appealed for him to get in touch.
The consultant haematologist had left his home in Brooklands Road, Sale, at 0650 BST and was filmed on CCTV arriving at the Pendlebury hospital 20 minutes later.
Dr Stevens was at the graduation of his daughter last week

Superintendent Frank Doyle, of Greater Manchester Police, said: "We have released the CCTV footage in the hope someone will recognise Richard as he looked on Monday morning and come forward.
"We know Richard took his jacket off as he left it in his office along with his briefcase. There have been no confirmed sightings of him since then.
"The longer he remains missing with no contact or sightings from the public, the more concerned we are for his safety.
"Richard's family are distraught and waiting for news.
"If Richard is out there I would ask him to contact his family, friends or the police to let us know he is safe and well."
