🚨 Exciting news! Application for the 2025 SABI-ECC team is now OPEN! 🚀

@rgrasmus & I invite you (trainees! junior radiologists in practice!) to apply or reapply for roles that inspire you.

Deadline: Jan 18th!

Is there a way to clone macros that contain embedded macros nested in picklists without loosing the linking? #Radiology #RadiologyReporting @NuanceInc

@francisdeng @arosenkrantzmd @AJR_Radiology @UTSW_Radiology My guess is a planning/guidance ct for same day robot-assisted bronchoscopic biopsy. Outpatient procedure but the scan always shows up as stat inpatient

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@Capitals @NBCSWashington Can someone clean the smudge on the main camera lens?

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@bodyradgal @nellytanmd I’m just used to that info auto-populating in the powerscribe template. I guess that’s not the case everywhere?

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@ctisus What is your standard protocol for penetrating trauma involving a single lower extremity? Bilateral FOV like this case?

@VChernyakMD @DTFetzer My reaction to the clipart of the person with a frisbee stuck in their head

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@EmmaradMD @nellytanmd More intricate & patient oriented than 280 characters, but many @UTSWUrology utilize it for T1a masses where (for appropriate patients) ccLS1-2 would undergo active surveillance (for more likely indolent subtype), ccLS3 undergo biopsy, & ccLS4-5 undergo partial nephrectomy

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@francisdeng @nellytanmd Likely from ccLS 2 being underpowered relative to others in the multi center study (ie 21 ccLS2 vs 99, 145, 124, 111 for ccLS 1, 3-5 respectively). Also mri protocol not standardized across institutions (ie lower flip angles on DIXON less sensitive for microscopic fat)

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@swoo_rad @nellytanmd Ideally in the future there will be more knowledge about cancer radiomics-genomics correlation that may help personalize neoadjuvant therapy in advanced cases

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@Webpuppy45 @becker_rad Fortuitous IVPs when the abdominal radiograph happens after a contrast CT

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@benwhitemd

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@ReneLizola @ralnamasy @andrebrq Also very common to have residual IV contrast within the azygous vein valves which will look like this.

@JacobFlemingMD @Chris_Grosse @dxieMD @PilotPenUSA Someone is either not left-handed or has never experienced the glory of the Zebra Sarasa pen @ZebraPen

[Rob Rasmussen, MD, PhD @rgrasmus]

@JacobFlemingMD @becker_rad See ACR incidental findings paper (https://t.co/qa9kZFI4Ox). TSTC when size is less than twice the slice thickness (https://t.co/zh1Dbz5g9l). Still, if clearly fat density, call it an AML. If clearly fluid density range, likely benign cyst. Otherwise indeterminate
