Intermittent UPJO caused by stool

Saw this case today, it was very interesting. Family had a child post pyeloplasty that was complaining of intermittent acute flank / abdo pain. Every time the pain occurred they would go to the emergency room and get a noncontrast CT to rule out kidney stones. This continued until I called the EM doc and requested a pyeloplasty instead, which demonstrated stool compressing the ureter.

Has anybody else seen a case like this? They really don't ever train you for this

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/
