Well, I find Whispersync for Kindle to be absolutely irreplaceable. I have a 40 minute drive to work each way, and I find audiobooks the best way to pass the time. At night if I want to read the same book from my drive, Kindle picks up exac

Really interesting! Love the combination of 'code cad' and graphical interface. I've been screwing around with build123d and its vscode plugin, which always selections, but this seems to take that concept much further.

Radiologists work best in consultation with the physicians ordering the studies. Sadly, this is less and less common as workloads increase in medicine. When I started 20 years ago there were whole teams that came through the radiology depar

Here we go again. There's something about radiology that makes it the perfect bait for nerd sniping. I guess it's probably the misunderstanding that it is exclusively pattern recognition. Here are my opinions, after a 20 year care

THERE ARE NO RADIOLOGISTS AVAILABLE TO HIRE AT ANY PRICE!!! True, and very frustrating. Imaging volume is going parabolic and we cannot keep up! I am offering full partnership on day one with no buy-in for new hires. My group is in the top

Yes, that would be ideal, if we could build such a system. I think we cannot with current tech.

Hi aabajian, thanks for replying! I might quibble with your math a little. Most CTs have more than 100 images, in fact as you know stroke protocols have thousands. And many scans are reconstructed with different kernels, i.e. soft tissue, b

If you believe this is true, why stop at radiology? Couldn't the same be said for every other non-surgical specialty?

When you get a medical test like an MRI, there is both a technical fee and a professional fee that is paid. For a shoulder MRI, the technical fee, which goes to the facility that performs the scan, maybe $1,500. The professional fee, that g

Basically, the ABR needs to approve a residency program for the residents that graduate from the program to be eligible to sit for the boards. I don't think they would ever do it, but technically the ABR could stop them.

You cannot bill for a resident's work, without an attending signing off on it. I like residents, I actually started a new radiology residency program. They are a net drain on productivity in radiology, due to the teaching obligations
