Just a quick story of what NOT to do

About 6 years ago (at age 23F) I came into the ER with a sudden, extreme headache. Fortunately they called a stroke code and got me into CT immediately. As I was moved out of the tube, the rad tech said, “I never know how to say this kind of thing… you have a bleed in your brain. Is there anyone you want us to call?” I said, “I don’t know, am I going to die?!” To which he replied, “no… I don’t know. The team will take care of you.”

Needless to say, it was extremely scary and vague for me to hear! Why would my first priority be to call someone? Just stop the bleed!

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/
