Screenshot of a smartphone app store page displaying "App Info" and "Portfolio" sections. The "App Info" section includes options to "Contact & Support," "Rate on the App Store," and "Share MIRA," each with an arrow indicating further options. The "Portfolio" section lists three apps: "Auto Captions: CreatorCaps" for converting videos to captions, "Blood Sugar Tracker: Glu Sight" for diabetes management, and "GLP-1 Tracker & Weight: Glyppo" for health tracking, each with a "GET" button. The background is a dark blue gradient.

Indie dev tip:
Every app should distribute the rest of your portfolio.

I use the iTunes Search API to show my other apps in Settings.

→ Live metadata
→ Up-to-date icons & pricing
→ Auto-localized
→ Zero manual updates

Each app becomes a node in your network.

so, so, good.

The CDC changed the universal vaccine schedule & no longer recommends

Rotavirus
Hepatitis A & B
Meningitis
Influenza
RSV

I’ve cared for previously healthy kids who died from RSV, influenza and meningitis.

We all are going to be caring for a lot more now.

SwiftUI provides us the keyboardShortcut modifier that we can attach to any view in the view hierarchy and define a keyboard shortcut. Pressing the defined keyboard shortcut is the equivalent to direct interaction with the view to perform its primary action.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

YouTube video by Coding4Docs Interview With An AI

What does ChatGPT “think” about AI safety in medicine?

In the latest video in my series, Coding4Docs, I interviewed an AI avatar of myself, giving the LLM’s answers.

Interview With An AI

A black and white photo of a vehicle with no doors and an open top to hold equipment. On the side it says RADIOLOGIE, accompanied with a Red Cross.

#OTD 1867, Marie Curie was born.

During WWI, Curie created a vehicle that contained a hospital bed, a generator, an X-ray machine and photographic darkroom equipment. These “petite Curies" (below) could be driven right up to the Front. Curie also helped train 150 women as radiology technicians.

Radiology meets rap - check out this video created by Paymon Zomorodian from RadBytes, with captions added by me. This rap is now well and truly stuck in my head.

And when Paymon asked the community for suggestions for a name for this new rap group, someone suggested 2PACs. Genius!

YouTube video by Coding4Docs Don't Fear The Command Line

Proud to share that the next video in my series Coding4Docs has gone live on YouTube.
The command line is a fundamental skill for working with computers. No previous coding background is required.

My dad told me a story about having a drink with Mr Lovell at some local dive bar when this sequence was being filmed for The Man who Fell to Earth back in the 1970's.
My dad said Mr. Lovell had a lot to say about space and what he saw there...
I'll leave it at that.
Rest in peace, spaceman.

YouTube video by Coding4Docs Medical AI Is Everywhere - Where to Begin

Very excited to share the introductory video for my new YouTube channel, Coding4Docs. Teaching the basics of computers, digital health and artificial intelligence for healthcare professionals of all levels.
No previous coding experience is required. I hope it will be fun!

It’s always more complicated than you thought.
- Baumel’s Law

As a radiologist, many keep hearing “run for the hills, the machines are coming!”

My advice is: embrace #AI, and grow the field forward.

@curtlanglotz.bsky.social said it best: “AI won’t replace a radiologist. But a radiologist with AI will replace a radiologist without AI.”
