YouTube video by Rush University System for Health How Safe Are CT Scans?

A great video from @markpsupanich.bsky.social about CT scans. www.youtube.com/shorts/8SXbF...

Thanks for putting this together, Dr. Supanich!

I have no time for people who say “it should be a TEAM approach” when *they* want to be included and then are only too content to box out others

CT is an invaluable tool in diagnosis of disease & has been demonstrated to improve patient outcomes.

If you have questions about this topic, please discuss with your doctor or reach out to your favorite medical physicist (which may or may not be me 😉).

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, our analysis shows.

As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

More from AAPM about the benefits of using CT in medical diagnosis.

US CDC orders pullback of new scientific papers involving its researchers, source says The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is seeking to withdraw all papers involving its researchers that are being considered for publication by external scientific journals to allow for a review by the Trump administration, a federal official told Reuters.

Mandatory government review of articles with CDC coauthors is outrageous. I'm guessing this is the first of all federal orgs? Scientific publishing isn't perfect but this destroys the very fabric of scientific integrity.

Not sure right now what action can be taken. Thoughts?

Question for the medical physics crowd:

What (if anything) are you doing for QA/QC of diagnostic CBCT on FGI equipment?

Next time I see you remind me to tell you about my 4-mile hike through the Canadian wilderness in the dark...on a work trip...

I appreciate that. Are you surfing this afternoon?👍🏄‍♂️

The video doesn't do it justice, but it's snowing here in Colorado! (view from my office)

And really, who DOESN'T want to raise their dental X-ray game??

First post on the new app!!
Do any of my #MedPhys colleagues have animation/video of a radiation therapy treatment plan (even just a few seconds) that they would be willing to let me use as part of the new NCRP website? (Stock footage has not been helpful here.)
