A skiffy kid in adulthood

A skiffy kid in adulthood

That’s me!

I’m happy to field DMs, especially if you have something helpful to offer my health.

For context, left hip (sorry if I’m not using the right language) was pinned in place at age 11. Age 18 an osteotomy was done to keep the hip/ball pinned in place but rotate the whole leg. That surgery was now close to 20 years ago.

I’ve needed a total hip replacement for years but I was “getting by” until just recently. I didn’t want any kind of surgery during Covid due to obvious risks.

This X-ray was taken close to four years ago, so I can only imagine how much more osteoarthritis is in my hip. And I can definitely feel it: daily.

I welcome any advice, too.

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/
