Ideas and Opportunities for Radiologists--Career and Professional Advising and Medical Education.

This article is about two highly diverse radiologists, who fortuitously came together by working as Career and Professional Advisors in the Student Affairs Department of a U.S. medical school.

Why Medical Students Pursue Radiology: A Current Longitudinal Survey on Motivations and Controversial Issues in Radiology.

Rationale And Objectives: Radiology is an increasingly competitive specialty. Various current factors influence medical students' decision to pursue a radiology career, including artificial intelligence (AI), remote reading, and COVID-19. This study seeks to determine the decision-making factors of all alumni from our medical school who matched into a radiology residency, and to gather opinions on emerging radiology topics.

Malignant phyllodes breast tumor.

Malignant phyllodes tumor is a rare tumor of the breast occurring in females usually between the ages of 35 and 55 years. It is often difficult to distinguish benign from malignant phyllodes tumors from other benign entities such as fibroadenomas.

Adverse events in a freestanding radiology office.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency, types, and severity of adverse events that occur in a freestanding outpatient radiology office setting and discuss the actions taken for patient treatment and subsequent triage.

Materials And Methods: Adverse event records from a freestanding outpatient radiology office were reviewed from January 2003 through December 2006. Data were grouped into different modalities, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography/computed tomography, and interventional radiology.

Cost-effectiveness and patient tolerance of low-attenuation oral contrast material: milk versus VoLumen.

Objective: The purpose of our study was to prospectively compare the cost, effectiveness, and patient tolerance of milk and VoLumen, a 0.1% barium suspension, in patients undergoing abdominal and pelvic CT with oral and i.v.

Gamma Probe Detection of Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma.

A 34-year-old man with hypercalcemia had a sestamibi scan that showed increased uptake that appeared to correspond with a 7 mm density in the mediastinum, adjacent to the aortic arch, on chest CT. This lesion was thought to be consistent with an ectopic parathyroid adenoma. Prior to surgical exploration, the patient was injected intravenously with 12.
