You have to see this #ASPNR26 poster!

Developing alternative teaching methods provides an opportunity to expose preclinical learners to radiology & radiologists and may provide a networking opportunity to encourage medical students to consider a career in radiology.

Vertebral level is a more accurate landmark than the kidneys for assessing conus position on fetal MRI.

Make sure you read this #ASPNR26 poster from Dr. Tracie Kong and the @CincyKidsRad #FetalImaging team to learn more.

Are we unnecessarily withholding IV contrast from patients with kidney disease?
- Risk of contrast-induced nephropathy may be overstated
- Withholding contrast can delay diagnosis

This may be a #TWDFNR!

Metadata Resolution Spoofing for Pediatric Application of Adult-Trained Deep-Learning Models for Pancreas Segmentation on CT | AJR

So this is kinda cool…

We know #AI built for adults struggles in #pediatrics
Metadata spoofing (tricking the algo to think its seeing an adult size patient) improves segmentation performance

Simple but effective - kudos to Jon Dudley for thinking of this

This multi-institutional study finds that ultrasound has excellent diagnostic performance for midgut malrotation and volvulus in children, supporting its use as a first-line imaging modality for these conditions.

Trump's Medicaid cuts will hurt children's hospitals The GOP said its overhaul of Medicaid was aimed at reducing fraud and getting more adult beneficiaries to work. Among the likely side effects: fewer services and doctors for treating sick children.

Ghosts in the Reading Room: The Present-Yet-Absent, Mid-Career Academic Radiologist | AJR Academic radiologists are increasingly withdrawing discretionary effortβ€”engaging only in their baseline dutiesβ€”a phenomenon known as β€œquiet quitting.” In this Viewpoint, opinion synthesis with supporting evidence from literature is used to explore how burnout, lack of leadership opportunity, favoritism, and pursuit of financial independence exacerbate this trend. Institutions must realign reward systems, promote equity, and restore flexibility to retain engaged faculty.

I describe the structure of a manuscript to trainees as having the shape of the figure on the right. Intro & Discussion provide broad context while the bulk of the rest of the paper is at the waist of the hourglass (credit to my uncle the biologist). β€œPresentation” verbal or written has many forms.

Associations between MRI and endoscopic ultrasound findings in the pancreas in children and young adults with suspected chronic pancreatitis Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are both used to diagnose pancreatitis but how findings relate across modalities has …

Both #EUS & #MRI are acceptable imaging modalities for diagnosis of chronic #pancreatitis in #children - we wanted to understand how findings on these modalities might match up (or not)

=the modalities agree on duct findings but less so on parenchymal findings

Tips for asking ?s as moderator #ISTH2025

Clinical talk: what future directions do you see this work taking?

Basic science: how do you envision this translating to the clinic?

Next level pro tip: contact author beforehand to see what they didn’t have time to present that they’d like you to ask

Dear editors, your publication delays are damaging our careers Chia-Hsuan Hsu waited 18 months before chasing an editor for a decision on a paper. The answer surprised him.

Absolutely! Editors need to make faster decisions (even if desk reject) and not let authors wait for months

Looks like more interventions in patients with SCD.
Were attacks of pancreatitis more severe?
I wonder about the impact of iron loading on attack severity.

Things We Do For No Reason: Avoiding IV iodinated contrast in AKI or CKD

I think of those who give prolonged meropenem for "undifferentiated sepsis" but refuse to arrange contrast CT to look for the source because the patient has abnormal RFT
