Lumbar spine MRI is fast evolving into the musculoskeletal analogue of serial thyroid ultrasound surveillance
Soon we will see:
“ Stable right neuroforaminal stenosis at L3/L4. Stable Modic 2 changes at L4/L5 endplates.
L-spine, rads category 1
Continue annual lumbar spine MRIs for surveillance”

What happened when a high-performing radiology practice (academic center) deployed AI for intracranial hemorrhage detection (aidoc)? Performance regressed toward mediocrity (slightly) and interpretation took (insignificantly) longer. Buyer beware!
A radiology department’s clinical implementation of a widely used AI triage system failed to improve radiologists’ accuracy for intracranial hemorrhage detection on noncontrast head CT examinations.

For today’s needs and today’s technology, we have simply produced far too few radiologists. There is a sizable and worsening radiologist shortage, and there is no end in sight ... There are currently 1788 separate job postings on the ACR job board.

Good morning #medstudenttwitter, #radres, and #mskrads.
I've been enjoying the new radiology website at @radhq. (radHQ.net)
It has its own jobs board, a forum for discussion of #radiology related topics, and threads for sharing interesting cases.
Check it out!
Any rads out there use RadAI software- Omni Reporting/Impressions, etc? It sounds great. But how is it working for everyone in the real world? #radiology
I was 12 years old in 1997 and that was pretty special- I even still have my youth size Charles Woodson jersey. This is up there too, what a season it has been!

1/Keep forgetting what to look for on scans for Alzheimer’s disease?
Do you just gestalt the volume loss & hope no one questions?
Or hope automated software provides an answer?
This week’s SCANtastic 🧵from @theAJNR will show you a better way!

It wasn't as impressive as Michigan's last two victories of Ohio State, but was probably the most difficult, and perhaps the most important.
Ohio State 24

1/They say form follows function!
Brain MRI anatomy is best understood in terms of both form & function.
Here’s a short thread to help you to remember important functional brain anatomy--so you truly can clinically correlate!

New interns are starting soon. Here are my #TipsForNewDocs from a radiologist. 🧵
When your senior resident or attending tells you to order an imaging test, make sure you understand the purpose. If you don't, ask them! What are you hoping to answer with the study?

1/Don’t let all your effort be in VEIN!
Developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are often thought incidental but ignore them at your own risk!
