The New CMS Measure of Excessive Radiation Dose or Inadequate Image Quality in CT: Issues and Ambiguities-Perspectives from an AAPM-Commissioned Panel.
AJR Am J Roentgenol
February 2025
Reed and Martha Rice Distinguished Professor of Radiology, Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Physics, and Electrical and Computer Engineering, Duke Health and Duke University, 2424 Erwin Road, Hock Plaza (Suite 302), Durham, NC 27705.
CMS has adopted a new CT quality measure seeking to discourage excessive radiation dose while preserving image quality. The measure score is expressed as the percentage of qualifying studies that exceed predetermined thresholds indicating inadequate image quality (based on image noise) or excessive radiation dose. The measure has been incorporated into the major CMS quality-based payment programs, impacting hospitals and clinician payments; measure reporting began in January 2025.

BJGP Open
February 2025
UK Renal Registry, UK Kidney Association, Bristol, UK.
Background: With ageing of the population both prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and incidence of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) are rising. Existing research suggests that Read-coding for CKD in those affected is associated with better implementation of recommended care and fewer hospitalisations for heart failure.
Aim: To investigate whether coding for CKD is associated with regional KRT incidence in England.
Provision of Evidence-Informed Psychological Interventions Following the Queensland (Australia) 2010-11 Floods and Cyclones; the Barriers and Successes.
Aust J Rural Health
February 2025
Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
Objective: The study assessed the impact on clinicians' 'perception of skills' in postdisaster evidence-informed care (EIC) following participation in an online training programme implemented following the Queensland floods and cyclones of 2010-11, clinician confidence to provide EIC, the frequency clinicians used EIC and barriers to providing postdisaster specialist mental health care.
Design: Clinician perception of pre and posttraining skills, confidence in providing therapies such as trauma-focused cognitive behaviour therapy (TF-CBT), frequency of therapies provided and clinician perception of barriers to the programme were assessed quantitatively and qualitatively.
Participants And Setting: Clinical staff (n = 60) employed by the 2010-11 postdisaster mental health programme participated in an online survey conducted over the last 12 weeks of 2012.
