Not radiology-related, but I've been making a lot of new stained glass designs recently that I'm really excited about. You can check them out here: etsy.me/3M3k7ea Please share this video if you know anyone who might like one, it'd help me out!
"physicians generally have no idea how much the tests they order will cost" washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/… I think about this often when I see inappropriate (redundant or low-yield) imaging performed. Also, c'mon, $595 for a chest X-ray?

Wow. Talk about an eagle eye on that x-ray pick up! MRI is easy. Pec major HADD... super painful. Confusing history and physical exam.

Can anyone explain why each state mandates a medical license for a physician who is licensed in another state? If I see a patient on one side of the line, and then step over, did something change? If I conduct a telehealth consult, does it really matter where the patient is? Come…
With the Guardian reporting that “UnitedHealth managers pressed nurse practitioners to persuade Medicare Advantage members to change their “code status” to DNR even when patients had clearly expressed a desire that all available treatments be used to keep them alive,” I thought I…
