Conversations of MP with MDCT and Oarm re #RSNA2022 meeting

MDCT: Hey doc, O-arm is on his way. We want to hear more about @RSNA

MP: I only have 30 min as I need to attend #IRB meeting

MDCT: Ok doc, tell us about technical exhibits?
1/
MP: Technical exhibits were again quite interesting, sprawling over both North and South side @MccormickPlaceM One highlight of walking through technical exhibits was meeting friends after a long time

MDCT: How was the sessions on #PCCT?

2/ Image
MP: They were good, however, since there is only one vendor who has received FDA clearance, all talks were based on that one vendor for #PCCT. I wish other vendors get their systems approved for clinic use soon

O-arm: Anything new to keep all those attendees entertained?

Conversations between MDCT and MP re #RSNA2022 meeting

MDCT: Hey doc, now that you have rested and back to work, can you tell me how was @RSNA and what were the highlights of #RSNA2022 meeting?

1/
MP: First of all, people have returned to the meeting. More than anything, I heard from many that attendees were very glad to meet their friends and colleagues after 3 years

MDCT: Seems like it, especially from all the photos you had tweeted

@aapmHQ
2/ Image
MP: As usual, the meeting was so rich with scientific information, however, many overlapping tracks.

MDCT: But I heard you can access virtually for few more days.

MP: Yes, that is correct, how did you know?

Conversations between UL & MP re studies w & w/o contrast
UL-Ultrasound
UL: Hey doc! We have a new probe (7.5 MHz), & he keeps bugging me about studies w & w/o contrast with #CT & #MRI

MP: That’s easy girl. Why are you having difficulty explaining.

1/
UL: You don’t know doc; this probe thinks he is high frequency & don’t seem to agree on what I say. Just tell me how I can explain in simple terms.

MP: I will try by two images I took at RSNA. Consider 1st photo without contrast & then 2nd photo as study with contrast
@RSNA
2/
MP: See the differrence

UL: Not bad doc, I will try explaining to him as you said. BTW, the #RSNA cutout looks good, please don’t mistake me, that is better than the one with contrast (2nd w you)

MP: Girl, you always pull my leg. I should stop talking w you.

Conversations between O-arm and MP re RSNA meeting

O-arm: Hey doc! How is it going over there @rsna #rsna2022? My cousin’s teenage daughter was telling that you are posting a lot on Instagram. What’s up with that?

1/
MP: Why can’t we #MedPhys not allowed to be instagramers? @aapmHQ

O-arm: I was just teasing you doc. As a teacher it is always best to make your students feel comfortable communicating w you, especially if they think you can understand them

2/
MP: Yes. Is that all or did you want to ask me something else?

O-arm: How is the technical exhibits over there? Anything new that I need to be concerned about, that would make me obsolete?

1/Asking “How old are you” can be dicey—both in real life & on MRI! Do you know how to tell the age of blood on MRI?

Here’s a #tweetorial on how to date blood on MRI
#medtwitter #neurorad #radtwitter #RSNA2022 #RSNA22 #radres #neurosurgery #neurology #meded #neurotwitter #FOAMed Image
2/If you ask someone how to date blood on MRI, they’ll spit out a crazy mnemonic about babies that tells you what signal blood should be on T1 & T2 imaging by age

But mnemonics are crutch—they help you memorize, but not understand. If you understand, you don’t need to memorize Image
3/If you look at the mnemonic, you will notice one thing—the T1 signal is all you need to tell if blood is acute, subacute or chronic

T2 signal will tell if it is early or late in each of those time periods—but that type of detail isn’t needed in real life. So let’s look at T1 Image

Conversations between MP and IM (Imaging Modality)

IM: Hey doc, why do u guys insist on placing Aluminum (Al) or Copper (Cu) filters in front of my mouth?

MP: It is mainly to filter out some of the lower energy x-rays coming out of Ur mouth.
@RSNA
1/
MP: Lower energy x-rays only increases patient skin dose & do not contribute to the overall image quality. Hence, by placing certain thickness of filter materials, we shape x-ray beam coming out of Ur mouth.

IM: Well, then why do U use only Al or Cu, why not Pb?

@aapmHQ

2/
MP: Because Lead is used to stop all x-rays. In fact, Pb is used in collimator housing to shape the x-ray beam coming out of your mouth, so that it is within the desired region. On the other hand, Al or Cu is used to filter out lower energy x-rays, making beam harder.

Looking forward to #RSNA22 and to learning how radiology vendors are decreasing their environmental impact. Some ideas for questions to ask if you also want to learn more below. @ReedOmary @CassandraLThiel @Rads4SF @mjbrownmd @nkagetsu
1) Do you have any publicly available data on the environmental impact of your product/service?
2) Where is this item manufactured and how are materials sourced? Are their renewable energy sources used in manufacturing? Post-consumer recycled materials in the product?
