It’s a strange phenomenon. Radiologists sitting in lowest percentile on production are so often the ones causing harm and patient stress by overcalling all day long. Same readers who later send you a supposed miss in retrospect, a case that was never prospectively callable to begin with. But their overcalls are a dime a dozen and nobody cares. No penalty. No retribution. When I get that feedback I want to send back a 7 page log of their overcalls and point out many are just as significant, or more, than supposed miss. These are also frequently biggest cherry pickers, skimming for fast easy studies and leaving hard cases to rot. They offload that risk onto whoever is conscientious enough to pick it up, then critique that person when something gets missed. Person who left case on list grades person who actually read it. you know who you are.

The alarming rise in #colorectalcancer incidence among younger people is probably due to environmental factors; #epigenetic signatures of exposures may help uncover drivers of this trend, but questions remain. News & Views from @KimmieNgMD & colleagues: dlvr.it/TSRZ7P

It's patient experience week, a time to positively influence the patient experience. One of the ways @RadiologyACR has done this is by making sure they understand what is going on when they go in for a visit. The PFCC has put together animations to help them understand certain procedures in non-medical terms they will understand. Learn more with the #ACRBulletin. #TBT #pxweek 🔗 bit.ly/4keOQnw @koolkpMD @DrIanWeissman @DSmethermanMD @NinaVincoffMD @SonyaBholeMD

Med students may be interested to know that physician compensation varies by specialty, as does time worked per year (based on weeks time off a year and hours worked per week on).

So honored and excited to share our work in progress RADS project and glad to see how well it was received at #SAR26 in Puerto Rico! We are finally able to address a long overdue gap in Abdominal Radiology: standardizing colonic stool assessment with objective criteria that can guide management and improve outcomes. POO-RADS is a novel, standardized classification system designed to quantify fecal matter in the colon through CT imaging. This five-tier framework replaces vague clinical descriptions with objective measurements based on stool volume, colonic distention, and the physical characteristics of waste. Future Directions - Radiomics and machine learning will improve further our system by analyzing pixel-level data and texture analysis to distinguish between mild retention and critical impaction. Perhaps a future DFP? If you’re interested in collaborating please let me know! @SocietyAbdRad @SAR_RFS @BrighamRad @DGlaucomflecken

Interesting presentation on MRI of pancreatic cysts: almost 50% cyst prevalence on MRI, with ~32% unreported. Associated with size, imaging indication and patient age. Dr. Wan Fung Chui @SocietyAbdRad @SAR_RFS #SAR26 @NYUImaging

#CTColonography, aka #VirtualColonoscopy, is now a fully reimbursed option for #ColorectalCancer screening & the only recommended STRUCTURAL alternative to colonoscopy that is optimized to detect precancerous polyps and prevent #ColorectalCancer! Read more in my VoR blog below:
American College of Radiology@RadiologyACR

#ColorectalCancer is the leading cancer killer for Americans under 50. @kchang urges radiologists to commit to making #CTColonography an accessible, well-publicized, and high-quality option in every community. More in the #VoiceofRadiology blog: bit.ly/4l8YlWY
