Radiologist interested in stories & algorithms

[Saurabh Jha @RogueRad]

Thank you for @KBibbinsDomingo for the opportunity to talk about AI &
radiology. I’m glad your fondest memories during residency call was talking with the radiologist about clinical uncertainty!

[JAMA @JAMA_current]

Cardiothoracic radiologist and associate professor of radiology @Penn @RogueRad recently joined JAMA Editor in Chief @KBibbinsDomingo to discuss how AI could play a crucial role in improving access to medical imaging in diverse settings. https://t.co/HUF8fyzFOU

Lung cancer screening CT receives papal blessings

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.

@MrWBond Not MRI. Divine intervention for sure. I now feel like I’m doing God’s work

@MrWBond Adenocarcimoma spectrum lesion. Perhaps he can take it on the chin for all the smokers

@AnilMakam What happened to night out in the pub? Is that no longer considered “wellness”?

Every skill has a learning curve & experience matters. The only thing that doesn’t need a learning curve is the Pavlovian endorsement of AI. Maybe the algorithms will come for its cheerleaders first

[Gator | Dentist @theNOBSdentist]

This is intended to increase the perceived value of doctors, especially radiologists.

What it actually does, is quietly admit that the first 10,000 chest X-rays analyzed by a doctor shouldn’t be trusted due to the difficulty.

Can’t think of a better AI endorsement.

[Saurabh Jha @RogueRad]

@northwoods1980 Indeed. AI has become a false positive generator

[Saurabh Jha @RogueRad]

Radiology seems very easy, particularly to venture capitalists and some specialists. I’m reminded of the astute observation by the great chest radiologist, the late WT Miller Sr. “the first 10, 000 chest x rays are easy to read”

[Saurabh Jha @RogueRad]

I can’t think of a single neuroradiologist who’d be upset if neurologists jumped on the list at 2 am to read a bunch of CTAs of the head & neck for dizziness & slurred speech after a night of partying

[Whitfield Lewis, MD 🇦🇬🇺🇸 @whitfieldlewis6]

Not a single vascular trained neurologist (stroke neurologist) in this country is waiting for a radiologist to interpret the CT scan. I interpret my studies and I do an effective job doing so.

By the time the read is back, I’ve already pushed TNK, sent the patient to the angiosuite, and moved on to my next patient.

AI fatigue has officially replaced “its about value not volume” fatigue.

[Saurabh Jha @RogueRad]

An LLM & a radiologist go to a bar. The radiologist orders an Old Fashioned. The LLM snatches the drink & gulps it. Why did you take me drink, asks the radiologist. The LLM replies “you’re just hallucinating”

End of politicization of science? When did it start? Who started it? https://t.co/uExdUME3pI

@marklewismd The app is fine. It’s better people fight with memes than swords.

If it was down to pure meritocracy I’d be eating Indian food everyday except Sunday. Sunday would be for Szechuan cuisine.
