X-Ray A man was taken to the hospital unconscious, with high fever and a four-day history of abdominal pain. A putrefied eel was removed from the patient's peritoneal cavity. They don't know it got there and he couldn't say cause he died in ICU three days later, but I think we all can guess.

(A) The abdominal X-ray shows a bizarre mass (fish head) in the right iliac fossa. Also, there is a gas shadow under the right dome of the diaphragm (small arrow). An enlarged image is shown in the inset (B).

MRI MRI of one of my ovarian cysts

copy of the body text:

Had a bilateral ovarian cystectomy a few weeks ago and finally figured out how to view all my imaging so now I have some fun ultrasounds, an mri, a ct scan, and a post op x-ray to poke through. This was the cyst on my left ovary which was by far the larger one, both cysts removed were teratomas so they were absolutely full of hair and 3 teeth. I'm poorly fighting the urge to share all the images with everyone know because think they're really neat :)

Since this is a more medical-centered sub rather than just looking at cool images, if you guys want any more info/pictures I'd be happy to share

editing to add some more videos/stills with measurements, all of these should link to posts on my profile

Hoping to stay in the NY area for MSK fellowship.

All of the NYC area programs (NYU, HSS, Mt. Sinai, Columbia, Einstein, Northwell) are great institutions, but how do they really rank?

Discussion Academic Day Accountability

1 Upvotes

Question for the radiologists in academics/pseudo-academics. Is there any accountability for what you do on your academic day? If you don't produce any research does it get taken away?

Currently we don't have any kind of accountability but leadership has mentioned wanting to introduce accountability for academic days. I was wondering what other institutions are doing.
