Nobody likes having to repeat a task, and nowhere is that more evident than in MRI. A new study in JACR quantifies the operational toll of MRI scans that have to be repeated due to patient motion, revealing both good news and bad news. Read more at theimagingwire.com/top-stories/. #MRI #radiology

Radiology has long had a complicated relationship with the USPSTF, mostly due to its conservative stances on cancer screening and the adoption of new imaging technologies. Will that change with a radiologist now serving on the panel? Read more at theimagingwire.com/top-stories/ #radiology

What does the human brain look like on psilocybin mushrooms? Researchers performed fMRI and EEG tests on 62 people, measuring brain responses to stimuli like meditation, movies, and music. 50% of participants “ranked the experience among the most meaningful of their lives.” More at bit.ly/4x7tOgx.

Curious about the carbon footprint of that MRI scan you’re about to perform? The Lancet MedZero database enables clinicians to look up the carbon emissions for thousands of medical products. Check it out -- like we did for some major #radiology exams -- at www.medzerocarbon.com.

This month's Geoffrey Hinton Prize for AI Punditry goes to a trio of health system CEOs who said they would be open to replacing their radiologists with AI – if the government allowed it. Congratulations to all, you've earned it! #radiology

A federal push to alleviate the U.S. physician shortage by adding more resident training slots appears to have skipped radiology. Only two diagnostic radiology programs have received Section 126 funds so far. bit.ly/4ccgrVx #radiology #RadEd #MeEd

Dr. Charles Dotter performed the first interventional radiology procedure on this day in 1964 to dilate a leg stenosis in an 82-year-old woman using a system that produced 2 X-rays per second. Read more at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles.... #IVRad

Ran into this bit of Chicago history walking to #RSNA25 in front of the Chess Records museum... Piece of sidewalk with signatures of Muddy Waters, Koko Taylor, and other Chicago blues greats. Wow!

Wow ... hearing that lots of US folks haven't made it to #RSNA25 due to Chicago snowstorm fouling up their flight connections. Ironically, most international attendees arrived a day early and were able to make it to the show. Lots of appointments getting canceled! #radiology

The U.S. government has reinstated the NIOSH B-reader program, in which chest X-ray is used to screen coal miners for signs of black lung disease. The program was paused after massive layoffs at NIOSH, its parent agency. Read more at buff.ly/UG6RHUa. #radiology #medsky

This has to be one of the worst pieces of AI-generated content I've ever seen, and I can't figure out how AI hallucinated "radiology" into a baseball story. Journalist jobs are safe ... for now! #radiology

Astronauts on the Fram2 space mission have shared the first medical X-ray image acquired in space, using equipment from MinXray and KA Imaging. Featuring a hand with a ring, it mirrors the first ever X-ray image accidentally captured over a century ago by Wilhelm Roentgen. #radiology #Xray
