So my wife is almost 37 weeks pregnant and our son will be here any day now. I'm mostly excited but I am a little anxious. What's a good APGAR score for us to aim for for him to be competitive for the 2048 derm match?

"AI will replace radiologists within 5 years!" PACS: *loads a 5 year old hand radiograph as comparison study for a leg CT* I'll be happy if we can get useable PACS software within 5 years.

Radiology is pretty easy tbh. All you need to know is every possible imaging manifestation of every disease and anatomic variant in every organ. And then how to stick catheters and/or needles in 'em #IRad #IRadRes #RadRes

I've never understood the practice of a consultant telling the primary team what imaging/tests to order instead of just ordering them. Almost always the primary team has less knowledge of the specialized orders. Often the wrong thing gets ordered.

I aspire to be as smart as a pediatric radiologist one day. How do they do it? They’re all, “This is a fairly typical case of juvenile neuroangiopericytoblastoma, the partial T2 lengthening is characteristic, and of course the 13.5 month old age of the patient is classic.”

If I had a nickel for every time an IR told me "IRs can't do XYZ because surgeons won't send referrals," I would have enough capital to open my own OBL. Bad advice is often free, unsolicited, and comes from people who think their limited experiences reflect reality. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm going to be fired from my job and specialty for saying this, but I'm tired of reading fluff language ("noted", "there is", "again seen", etc.) in radiology reports. As a radiologist it pains me to read. I can only imagine how other clinicians feel, but I doubt favorably.

Placing ports in patients with large breast tissue can be difficult. In general best to minimize length to venotomy. This placement shows how long extravascular length + mobile tissue can cause loop + potential for kinking. Worst case would be retraction of intravascular portion

In residency you have to claim small victories in the war on call even though you know you're never really done. "Yeah, this is my last night on call. At this hospital. I mean, until next academic year. As long as you don't count weekends. Or evenings. Or this coming Tuesday."

Sclerotic fractures on CT are often described as "remote" or "chronic" because it's something that can be said pretty confidently. Unfortunately this descriptor sometimes ignores other salient features, such as a hypotrophic nonunion cleft with pain >6 months after injury.
