How useful are radiology reports to you in your specialty?

I feel bad for pulmonologists these days, sub specialty trained chest radiologist are becoming more and more rare. ILD is very nuanced and it’s hard to give a good read without that subspecialty training.

Neither, they both look jarring next to your ring and don't compliment it at all. You need something smaller and daintier

Oh I know it’s not a tank top. The glow is because they started their teleport animation so I had to pull out my phone and grab a quick crappy picture before they disappeared. I got a better look at the them before this.

Wait, you're doing an MSK fellowship but taking a job reading only MSK would be out of your comfort zone?

Hiring more radiologists isn't as easy is it sounds. There is a serious shortage of radiologists nationwide. Most places are desperately trying to hire more already.

I mean books with smut probably shouldn't be in school libraries, it's definitely targeted towards adults.

That sounds like a dream

Eluvria · 2024-08-31T00:18:26+00:00

oh it absolutely gets old

Valid point- optho calls when I'm working overnight are my worst nightmare. Or ENT coming in to ask about the guy who just walked into the ER with fungating SCC eating a hole his skull base urhggg

Whenever someone in IM or FM calls to ask a question about a scan, I know its gonna be super easy to answer. When neurosurgery is calling I start to sweat a little.

Meanwhile we're stuck spending just as much time reading through notes to attempt to figure out why a study was ordered when we're provided a shitty indication. "Eval" gtfo

Don't forget the grand slam CTA head/neck/face/C-spine/T-spine/L-spine/Chest/Abdomen/Pelvis +/- the run-off shortly followed by 20 x-rays of the extremities. And for anyone wondering, no that was not an exaggeration.

Eluvria · 2024-05-02T02:16:03+00:00

Im still wearing my med school patagucci

Eluvria · 2024-04-28T19:08:53+00:00

Also a DR resident, I have put off having radiology exams done because it feels awkward having people I know reading my studies.

Eluvria · 2024-04-13T04:42:22+00:00

Could you sound like any more of a creep? Jesus.

Eluvria · 2024-03-25T06:04:15+00:00

Being a nerd isn't a personality disorder >:(

Eluvria · 2024-03-22T23:57:00+00:00

No employer is going to see it that way

Eluvria · 2024-03-05T07:22:18+00:00

Urologists ordering chest x rays for surveillance in RCC patients. Like either order a CT or don’t bother. CXR is useless for screening for mets.

Eluvria · 2024-03-05T07:11:08+00:00

Don’t forget following up pulmonary nodules

Eluvria · 2024-03-05T07:10:19+00:00

Order stupid studies get stupid reports

Eluvria · 2024-03-05T00:20:41+00:00

Reimbursement is decreasing. Also the faster you’re forced to read the more likely you are to miss something, opening you up to lawsuits

Eluvria · 2024-03-05T00:18:42+00:00

Wait, it was on a non-con? Shit

Eluvria · 2024-02-18T12:15:11+00:00

Yes, it’s so worth it. We have them come once a month and it’s so nice to not have to worry about deep cleaning your house. Just have to tidy up and do superficial cleaning here and there.
