I matched at my top choice for Breast Imaging fellowship! Thank you to all my mentors for helping me get here! Houston, here I come! @MDAndersonNews @BreastImaging #breastmatchever

Today I'm launching a small, simple site dedicated to helping radiologists find true private practices (and helping those practices find radiologists). It's a crazy job market out there. It's called Independent Radiology, and I hope it's helpful: independentradiology.com

🎳 We struck gold with this graduating class! Congrats to our graduating seniors as they head off to amazing fellowships and jobs—we’re so proud of all you’ve accomplished. You’ll be deeply missed, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for each of you! 💙💛 #UMKCRadiology #RadRes

Welcome to our newly matched #radres class of 2030. We are so excited to have you!

Are you right when it’s bright?   Bright cortical signal on diffusion images is classically associated w/hypoxic-ischemic injury.    But there are many mimics!   Do you know how to recognize the different patterns of cortical restricted diffusion? Here’s a figure & some pearls…

A huge congrats to our beloved R4 @MadisonLooney4 for passing the @ABR_Radiology CORE exam administered in November! 🎉🙌🏽🎊🍾 That brings the entire R4 class of 2025 to a 100% first time pass rate!

I started Independent Radiology–a job board exclusively dedicated to featuring physician-owned practices–on August 14. Not everyone wants or needs to work for a private practice (of course!), but I believe the success of private practice is important for the field.

We're happy to showcase our wonderful residents! @RSNA #RSNA2024 - @LakshmiPriya140 worked with @amykpatel discussing breast cancer in young women, @AlirezaZandifar's acceptance to the introduction to academic radiology workshop, & @alanverlgodfrey's work on cardiac pacers

Important for patients? How much training are NPPs receiving in radiology? Very little. 2% of NPs have had more than 2 DAYS of radiology training! Contrast that to 4 years of residency and 1 year of fellowship (and medical school!) for radiologists. npjournal.org/article/S1555-… 10/11

If you’re a Medicare beneficiary, depending on your location, there’s as much as a 20% chance an NP or PA (not a physician/radiologist!) will interpret your imaging study. New work out today by our @UMMCRads and @NeimanHPI team. 🧵Below. 1/11

Enjoying a spontaneous @barriokc happy hour!

Interviews are in full swing and we are excited to meet all of you! #medtwitter @futureradres

1/ Challenge accepted. I have run a series of breast mammograms (x-rays), ultrasounds and MRIs through versions of GPT4 and posted the results here previously. Even though it's data contamination to repost images I already used on X, it's an easy bench mark. So how did Grok do…

Hello Elon, Radiologist here. Just tried with the last MRI image I had (adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder, level: easy, typical pattern) Heading + 1: true 2: not true 3: true but too generic 4-5-6: not true Conclusion: too generic + no diagnosis Will try again next time !

Our semiannual Fall retreat with residents and staff @gameshowbattle! @LakshmiPriya140 @JosephGeorgeAy @nicoleftamerMD

Looks fun!

Excited to represent @UMKCRads tonight talking to prospective med students interested in radiology. @TheRadRoom #MedTwitter

Our annual R1 intro picnic! @SorkinJonathan @MadisonLooney4 @MahnoorFMalik1 @Sheila_Maillard @nicoleftamerMD @husarcik @LakshmiPriya140 @JosephGeorgeAy

Congrats to our R4’s for 100% pass rate on the @ABR_Radiology CORE exam! @alanverlgodfrey @SorkinJonathan @Sheila_Maillard
