we are decades past developing films and squinting at lightboxes; at this point many if not most of us deal exclusively in acquiring and interpreting digital exams.
the tradition of workstation-side / over-the-shoulder training of diagnostic radiologists seems like it should lend itself to an online format. with the exception of the recently launched Radiology Channel on YT by the Radiopedia folks, radiology seems instead to be represented in social media (1) very minimally, (2) as a background context for personality-driven content, (3) job-relating griping, (4) YA foreign body/trauma.
perhaps i am among a minority of diagnostic radiologists who have referred to YT at one point or another to learn a new post-processing technique, or as a quick refresher on what to look for on low volume exams / what to do with esoteric findings. the breadth, depth, and focus of what is available is generally not suitable as a practical reference.
is there no audience for this kind of content? conversations with radiologists in china and india suggest a potentially huge international audience, comprising the spectrum of healthcare workers involved with medical imaging.
what is going on? this can't all be attributed to HIPAA concerns.
