Identifying implants in patients

Dear techies,

In Denmark we do not have a standardized method to identify implants in patients that need a MRI. So when a patient shows up to a MRI-scan we need to investigate through phone calls and multiple databases. It all takes so damn long time and we easily get behind schedule.

I’m investigating new ways for us to do this quicker. Therefore I’m curious to know how you guys do it:

How do you identify (in operated) implants, does it take long time, how many times a week do you experience it and how do you know which procedure (conditionals) to follow?

Looking forward to read your answers. - Simon

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/
