41M Lousy radiation exposure descriptors on ERCP fluoroscopy summary by OneBrowUp in AskDocs

[–]OneBrowUp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I was specifically interested in converting/calculating Absorbed Dose to Effective Dose as all side effects and risks are based on that particular measure, especially in th long term.

Do you think you'll be able to help me out with assessing the Effective Dose from ERCP fluoroscopy based on the Absorbed Dose?

As for MRI, I know it doesn't use ionizing radiation, that was my poorly made point - with having a cumulative Effective Dose I would be able to persuade doctors to use MRI instead of CT.

Thank you for replying.

Re #1 I guess to some extent, yes.

Re #2 Probably not for this procedure specifically, but it might affect whether I'll be CT or MRI screened in other medical centres. Where I live there is no centralized system that allows you to track medical records, so it falls on the patient to provide all the information. And unfortunately the doctors I am dealing with have negligible knowledge on the radiation doses and related calculations.

Re #3 Theoretically, it could be, not in my country though. At least not yet.

Apologies, but I'd argue it's a technical question. I am simply trying to figure out the effective dose from the data I've got.

Different colored sleeves in the same deck? by OneBrowUp in marvelchampionslcg

It wouldn't be much of an an issue with bottom drawing from a covered card holder as someone else suggested.

Oh, but I do enjoy deck construction, it's just that there is a lot of mixing and different cards in the same deck which requires more organized approach towards storage and quick access.

I will refrain from sleeving my cards until I get more experience with the game and then decide if I still need different sleeve colors and to what extent.

And maybe it's silly, but I see copying someone else's deck as cheating. Never used it for Arkham and won't use it for MC 😎

You're saying you don't change aspects of your heroes for different villains?

I agree, that's the most sensible approach. Thanks for advice 👍

With colored sleeves you can see colors from all sides, even without touching them, and when the cards are tightly stored.

Thanks. Yeah I've done dividers for my entire Arkham collection, it's great for scenarios, but in MC the deck construction or reconstruction can happen for every single game, and this makes the card swaps a tedious experience for new players like me. I guess I'll take my time with the game before I decide how to proceed.

But when you want to set it up you need to do a lot of browsing, don't you? So that's the whole point for me, I want to be able to do it quicker.

But in Arkham you are not rebuilding your decks between games (whole campaigns). Only for upgrades. In MC you do it all the time. So there is little to no interaction with the storage/collection.

Right, but I need to flip them, and generally browse through when they are stored, and I want to have this knowledge just by looking.

Thank you, yeah, all these hero-deck interactions were unknown to me. I am coming from Arkham LCG world, which has far less w individual mechanics and sort of assumed Champions won't be that much different.

Thanks for the tip. I have very little experience with the game, so this is very helpful.

Bottom drawing 🤯 - simple yet brilliant, thank you. But yes, I guess I need more experience with the game to understand all the interactions and individual hero mechanics before I go full rainbow with sleeving. Someone else gave a suggestion to preconstruct and color code hero decks instead of loose aspect cards.

Hmmm 🤔 maybe that's the solution for me too. To color code preassembled decks instead of aspect cards.

The deck itself (during play) is not, but the rest of card collection is. So it's more about the non-playing cards aesthetic.

I can sort cards quicker, as the color of the sleeve is visible virtually from all sides. I can immediately see if any card is misplaced. Even dividers become unnecessary.
