Radiology Regional Center’s Post

Inspiring opening session today at #RSNA2024 by Nina Kottler, MD, MS, FSIIM MD, MS, FSIIM “The only way to predict the future is to create it.” I’ve always loved RSNA opening sessions, but this one really resonated with me! I absolutely enjoyed the presentation, especially the wonderfully selected and relevant quotes. The challenges are already here. We need to scale at a level we cannot achieve without technology. At the same time, we should aspire to do better—always strive to do better. This means evolving and redefining our roles. Fortunately, the technology designed to address these challenges is evolving too. “The world will ask you who you are, and if you don't know, the world will tell you.” —Carl Jung As radiologists, it is our responsibility to actively participate in the creation of the technology that will enable us to perform better. We need to analyze our workflows, identifying every small step that could be optimized, and work closely with vendors to ensure they provide what we truly need to enhance and scale every aspect of our jobs. Our roles will change, hopefully toward a more cognitive focus. By leveraging our unique skills, we must prepare to build meaningful human-technology connections that surpass our current capabilities. “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” —Charles Darwin

Did you miss our symposium at #ASTRO24? Here's a recap' by Seth Blacksburg, MD, MBA, who moderated "Evolving Techniques in CNS Radiosurgery: Historical, Contemporary, and Future Directions"!

Last week at the Tinnitus Research Initiative conference 2024 in #Vancouver Stefan Schoisswohl talked about combining TMS with audiory stimulation in #tinnitus as part of the symposium “Real World Evidence for Multimodal Treatment Approaches for Tinnitus”. We look forward to the next exciting findings!

Pushing AI applications in Medical Physics to the edge. This is great Innovation indeed Saleh Hamdan, PhD . One of the main driving aims in Imaging is to Improve image quality while lowering the amount of Radiation to the patient and this Deep-learning based Synthetic Anti-scatter grid has done that. #AAPM2024 #MedicalPhysics #ArtificialIntelligence #innovation

Tanja Kero presented all our four abstracts at #ICNCCT2024. Superior test-retest variability of #MBF measurements with #15Owater-#PET and #aQuant compared to previously published results with other tracers, a motion correction method for cardiac #15Owater scans (Jonny Nordström), and the final results of our #DOTAFLOW study comparing the extraction of MR contrast agent DOTA to #15Owater using 68Ga-DOTA.

Timely usage of AEDs is key for improving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survival rates. Yet for many communities, access to these devices remains a significant barrier. DCRI faculty member Monique Starks is working to use drones to improve delivery times for AEDs to ensure they arrive within that key five-minute window. Check out the video below for a demonstration of the drone delivery in action, and be sure to read the latest study results published in the American College of Cardiology: https://lnkd.in/gGhJWed5 #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch #AEDs #heartattack
