Radiology practices engage in planning processes with varying frequency. Organizational planning can occur on three levels. Strategic planning is an infrequent event occurring every 5-7 years. It is aspirational and is guided by the mission and the vision of the organization. Operational planning is a yearly process in which businesses articulate their goals for the year. Creating a yearly operational plan provides departmental employees with a road map for the upcoming year and helps to tie their daily activities to the larger strategic plan of the organization. Finally, a project plan provides details describing how a specific goal will be met. The differences among these three types of plans (strategic plan, operational plan, and project plan) are described. The article then focuses on operational planning, providing a rationale for building an operational plan and then a description of the method used in the authors' division to build an operational plan.

Objectives: In cases of preterm delivery, the Medicaid sterilization policy mandates a signed consent form at least 72 h before surgery for permanent contraception, which is less than the 30 day minimum waiting period for term births. This study evaluated the association between preterm birth and fulfillment of planned permanent contraception.
Study Design: This was a secondary analysis of a multi-center retrospective cohort study of 3013 patients with a postpartum contraceptive plan of permanent contraception.

Nonunion is a significant complication in fracture management for surgeons. Salvianolic acid A (SAA), derived from the traditional Chinese plant Salviae miltiorrhizae Bunge (Danshen), exhibits notable anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Although studies have demonstrated its ability to promote osteogenic differentiation, the exact mechanism of action remains unclear.
