Loved PE studies as a new-ish CT tech. Five years in, I hate them.

Pregnant patient out of OB, obese. Ah crap. Chart says 104 kg/ 230lbs, I suspect more than that. Was about 5'6". Was not on supplemental O2.

Left AC IV was great, so that was nice. Flow rate 5mL/sec without issue. Breath hold deactivated.

On SmartPrep monitoring on the main pulmonary artery, I only needed three sliced before I hit scan, we manual it here.

Slice 1: 62 HU Slice 2: 147 HU Slice 3: 270 HU. Sweet! SCAN. Scan: 155 HU. DAMMIT

I did one just like this one last week out of the ER (pregnant, obese), nailed it. I really hate these scans sometimes.

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/
