@ColumbiaCTSurg@ColumbiaSurgery@TSRA_official@DavidBlitzer1 Blitzer and Salna were both phenomenal residents when I knew them as juniors rotating through CHONY -- I can only imagine how skilled and accomplished they are now. Congrats to both!
@georgetolisjr Sagittal view can be used to show the length of the aorta between where the RPA crosses posteriorly (this point is almost always above STJ), and where the innominate vein crosses anteriorly, a reasonable surrogate of “usable” aorta.
If you’re attending #ACC23, stop by the Personalized Skills & Simulation Center (Level 1, Hall B) to practice your TEE skills on the @SmarterScanning mannequin with @kerizozo and other expert faculty!
@Awesomecloss@Caulimovirus Mine was ping pong balls. As much of a curiosity as they were, I never liked seeing those old CXRs of ping pong balls in the chest. Subconsciously maybe because they made me think of how much fun I’d be having playing ping pong instead of taking the board exam with the photo.
@MNateShyamalan@thats_bone Since Sears went out of business it’s the only place you can get lingerie and tires in one trip. Also the only place ever where you can get croissants and a telescope.
@georgetolisjr@MGHSurgery Thank you George for your help with this case but more importantly for the many hours you spent training me years ago. Your ongoing dedication to resident/fellow education remains unparalleled and should be recognized way more than it is and has been.
