Last month, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued the proposed rule for the CY2022 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS). If the rule is adopted, significant Medicare pay cuts will impact most aspects of Interventional Radiology (IR). As a result, IR is facing an aggregate reimbursement cut of 13% and more than a 20% cut for certain procedures. Please act today by visiting both the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) and United Specialists for Patients Access (USPA) action centers and helping fight the proposed Medicare reimbursement cuts. The links are easy to use and only take a few moments. SIR: https://www.votervoice.net/SIR/Campaigns/86921/Respond The SIR message is directed to Congress and asks them to retain the 3.75% conversion factor support in the CY2022 MPFS and urge CMS to not implement (or at least phase-in) the clinical labor value update. USPA: https://www.uspaccess.org/takeaction-august The USPA message is directed to the House of

M3 with engineering background here, doing radiology research for a year. I have really enjoyed my research so far and am falling in love with the intricacies behind medical physics and the work we're doing developing MRI pulse sequences. I am so grateful for the opportunity for a deep dive into the more quantitative side of medicine and am genuinely excited to use this year to learn more about AI, device development, and other tech topics in radiology/medicine. However, after seeing the recent thread in r/Residency on various fields of medicine being a "calling", and seeing a lot of rads residents chiming in that they essentially picked radiology for the lifestyle and not wanting to talk to patients, I'm wondering if radiology would still be a good fit. Currently deciding between rads and surgery, and I really admire the energy and passion surgeons have for their craft. I'm pretty good with patients, but am essentially very shy and sensitive and worry that I w

I’m sorry for asking such a basic question but I just don’t get. With regards to film-screen radiography and the characteristic curve, what is meant by optical density? I’ve googled it and I’m seeing stuff about absorbance and the degree of light intensity transmitted through a medium. But I still don’t get it in the context of radiology. Excluding the toe and shoulder of the characteristic curve, OD appears to be somewhat proportional to the kerma so the more photons passing on to the film, the higher the OD. But then how is OD a measure of how “absorbent” something is? Isn’t it the exact opposite of that? submitted by /u/Bitsoft [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/pf8bim/can_someone_eli5_what_is_optical_density/

Brand new 2nd yr student, here! I am trying to improve my ability to use landmarks when positioning the center ray. Lately, I have come across some bigger patients and have had trouble locating ASIS and the iliac crest. A couple techs that I've spoke to don't even have to palpate and when I ask how, they say it just comes with time. Does anyone have any tricks or tips? This should be easy by now, but these last few clinical days have thrown some curve balls.

I understand there was once a time where this job was done by films, which makes perfect sense. In the first digital age, older computer monitors also respond terribly to glare from other light sources and could obstruct important pathologies from your reading. That also makes sense. But the new monitors coming out have incredibly clear displays with a good defense against glare. And if you place your monitor’s back directly in front of a window, there’s no chance of glare assuming there are no other light sources. So why do you guys insist on reading only in the dark in 2021? What specifically about other light sources make it risky to have them on? submitted by /u/SnooRecipes1809 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/petemk/stupid_question_why_do_you_guys_still_read_in_the/

Good afternoon everyone, I just registered for my second attempt at the ARRT registry...Unfortunately my previous attempt I did not properly prepare until maybe three days out. I was unable to schedule my first exam right after graduation due to some life complications and had to wait two months. So I was more prone to push off my studying which was a terrible mistake. I have taken full responsibility for that. BUT since my first attempt I have been getting back into the swing of my studies, using radreview / radtechbootcamp / Radiography 9th edition prep book. I scheduled my exam today and the only date available is in two weeks! I did not want to push my exam off over a month which I am glad I was able to obtain that time slot but the anxiety is rolling back in. I recently left my job as a general x-ray machine operator to fully focus on my studying to achieve what I have worked hard to accomplish in my schooling. I guess I am here for advice and past experiences, this is truly my

When I came home I wanted to double check it since I didn’t feel like they did it right (it was a first year family medicine resident). We were able to find what we think is an embryo in the gestational sac (see picture) but we were trying to find a heart rate and we’re using color Doppler and power mode and tried the m-mode as well. When I told my brother this (who is a first year EM resident) he said an attending OBGYN had told him not to use color Doppler since it causes higher frequency waves.

There is the same program/school in AZ. I need to be able to work. Texas has something called NCT (non certified techs) or LMRT (limited radiology techs) that can work in ortho clinics and urgent cares although jobs are pretty limited. I can't find any program information or job listings for these "limited scope techs." What's the 411? Plan would be to work doing limited for awhile then reapply to rad school.

Hello. I'm hoping I might be able to find some insightful information here. I am currently considering getting into the field of radiology, but my ears are stretched to 1 inch plugs/gauges, as well as having tattoos below my elbow. Does anyone know if this makes me un-hireable? I'm hoping to find out before I place myself in debt from school. The reason I am worried is due to a friend who recently got into being an EMT, to where he was asked to sew his ears closed. (Or rather, was informed he would not be able to have his ears that way and he made the decision to sew them closed.) My body mod is unfortunately non-negotiable.

I am looking for some advise. I just failed my first attempt of the ARRT exam with a 70%. Devastating is an understatement. I went in there with what I thought was fully prepared. I used mosbys & radtechbootcamp for months. Pushed it back 3x, just to fail. I honestly think my anxiety got the best of me. I had a full on attack right before the exam. Im a horrible test taker and I went and didn't take my propranolol (trying to overcome and that was my downfall). I have been looking for other resources that is definitely going to make sure I pass. I have the Langes book but find that more difficult to understand than Mosbys. I am aware of Radreview & kettering. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutor or tutor website?

Hi all, I am wanting to know if any inpatient (or outpatient) MR techs are having to assist with changing cardiac device settings (placing the remote over the cardiac device and then the device rep will program the device from another location). Is this considered being within our scope of practice? Are we liable if an event occurs? My concern is that if we have ICD, and it gets turned off, and if the patient needs therapy while the scan occurs (aka shock), and the patient codes, we won’t have anyone turn the ICD back on. Medtronic seems to be pushing for MR techs to assist so their reps don’t have to be on location during patient scans. Any feedback will be useful.

Hi Radiologists, Did you know that voice-enabled transcribed note-taking can help you take notes 3 times faster ? One of the root causes of physician burnout is the time spent in EHR software for documentation. Another common complaint we see from physicians is their lack of access to patient data because of the inherent un-interoperability of their vendor EHRs. Do you find dictation an effective way to share observations with your team? Are you measuring the right metrics to ensure your personalized goals of effectiveness for your practice are measured? Are you using this data to inform your proactive patient outreach strategies? I want to make healthcare easier for both doctors and patients through enabling them to easily collect and share patient data, and ensuring they have fast and accurate access to the information so they can make the best recommendations. I’m working on a healthtech product powered by AI to reduce friction in patient documentation and improve communication
