A Festival of Book Revision
Have you tried RSS feeds. Setting up an RSS reader can be done quite easily with google and you can then set it up to automatically update you on the latest literature (at least you will see the abstracts quickly) and keep you up to date in no time at all. You can also set it up for news feeds and create your own newspaper! Technology has made it harder and harder for us to find excuses smilies/wink.gif
Sorry, no way
Touche! Let me guess, they were neurosurgery residents smilies/wink.gif! The cool and calm demeanour of a radiologist should not be shaken by some irrational mumbo jumbo! Take it in your stride and move on. for those financially inclined, those residents will be your future referring physicians but that's not the reason for moving on.
Second Opinions on Scans Done Elsewhere
Who are we to decide that it is time to supersede a previous report when we have no idea about the information made available to the initial radiologist. Might I suggest what I feel is a more appropriate and benign line: "This interpretation is based on an independent review of the images with clinical information that maybe different from that available at the time of initial interpretation and this may explain differences in opinions rendered."
A Festival of Book Revision
Great! Good luck. Let me know if you need any help with setting it up. Radiology, AJR and Radiographics even have specific RSS feeds for subspecialty sections, so you could update yourself on just specific areas rather than read the rat research papers!
Twelve years is a short time
Now that you bring it up and even though it's been a while since I left school, I recall that day as one of great relief, leaving with the same defiance towards the system that your son has and I couldn't leave fast enough. Now that almost 20 years have passed, I look back at it as one of the best experiences of my life, one that forms a significant part of who I am today (the school may now have feelings of resentment towards me!). The words of many teachers echo at different yet appropriate times in life. I try now, more that ever to hold a candle up to them when I teach radiology and what little I learnt from all they had to impart to me. I hope that we as radiologists can try harder to build a better radiology education system for our residents and fellows by taking a few hints from some of our own "unsung" school teachers.
