So, I'm and IR nurse and have a random weird question about paracentesis.

So, I have been doing this a few years and I see paras multiple times a day, everyday. We use a thickener in the fluid to make disposal a little neater. I'm hoping that's the norm as this question. Relies on knowledge of this process.

Normally the thickener disperses evenly in the fluid or settles to the bottom then spreads evenly. This time the thickening powder is floating on top and not breaking up or dissolving. It's so strange to see it. It looks like a floating layer of something.

Any guesses as to why? I've never seen it do this before.

I dont know the exact makeup of the powder.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
