Should New Residents Worry about Efficiency and Ergonomics? Yes. I don’t think it’s ever too early to start thinking deliberately about what makes you better and more efficient in your job or able to act more sustainably. If anything, spending more time on workflow and ergonomics early on in your career is an investment in yourself. As a resident, I just used whatever was plugged into the workstation I sat at.

A new, minimally invasive procedure that combines MRI and transurethral ultrasound is effective for treating prostate cancer, according to research presented March 20 at the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) meeting in Salt Lake City. A team led by Steven Raman, MD, of the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that the treatment -- dubbed MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) and performed by interventional radiologists -- prov

About 40% of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime, and patients are getting younger. At the same time, the cost of treatment continues to rise, with employers spending 8.5% more on cancer care for each employee than they did last year. The best thing employers can do for their employees and business tomorrow is to invest in cancer detection and care today.

A radiologist’s perception when viewing a complex MR image may be akin to a Major League Baseball (MLB) batter reading the stitches on a fastball, according to researchers exploring exactly how diagnostic interpretations are made. The baseball metaphor works because eye-tracking studies have shown that radiologists are able to discriminate between normal and abnormal stacks of 26 T2-weighted images from prostate MRI in as little as 48 milliseconds per section, said neuroscientist Robert Alexande

milla1cf Wed, 03/20/2024 - 19:12 March 20, 2024 — Interval breast cancer is one that appears between two reviews of a screening program. That is, it is diagnosed after a test whose result was negative and before the next evaluation. For obvious reasons, it is a very reliable indicator of the effectiveness of early detection programs for this disease: if the number of cancers that appear after a screening is high, it is a sign that the program is not working.
