Great paper. I wrote some of my best papers while I was at @HopkinsMedicine @Hopkins_Rad but also, I am at @Yale_IR and was recruited to be and stay here and that says something about both Yale and Hopkins. So in a way, while it’s difficult to track, when papers and credit moves with the person, it says something about the place where the person is going…just as much as it does about a place from where the person is leaving.
Attributing credit for publications is difficult because you don’t know where authors wrote their papers in their career. Thanks to @MahlaaRad @ArminTafazoli @RohiniNadgir now we know!!! sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @Hopkins_Rad

Every conference presentation looks like these nowadays and it loses interest. We need speakers who present their own way without taking care of these AI-generated templates.
Old school self made ppt’s still rock!
What are your thoughts ?

I don’t understand IRs make a living doing just MSK embo. Commerical insurance does not pay the majority of times. Medicare will audit you. I think people are either lying, commuting fraud, subsidized by other services, or charging cash. Per usual, adoption has outpaced data.

This is why I think Osoff is the most likely Dem candidate for President in 2028. When his constituents call him for help, he doesn't care if they're Dems or Reps. That will go a long way.
Just heard on CNN that @ossoff, safely cruising to re-election in what was originally thought to be a vulnerable senate seat in Georgia, was endorsed by many Republican mayors because his constituent service work was so good.
Imagine living in a reality where “constituent services” was the driving issue behind the electing of members of Congress.
Would probably be a good sign.

This was indeed something we only learned about when digging deeper. Our school books did not discuss this in depth but it’s something widely reported in contemporary literature. Horrific ideologies always brainwashed humans to voluntarily do horrific things, to devalue the life of others and eventually their own. All the radical movements, Nazism, Communism, religious fanaticism are essentially the same. It’s sad to see that our youth - brainwashed by TikTok and Instagram - is now being led back in time.

In spring 1945, when Germany lost the war, about 100,000 ordinary people killed themselves. What is heartbreaking for any reader is the fact that thousands of parents killed their small children first before they died.
They poisoned little children, cut their wrists, and threw clinging to life.
For instance, in the small town of Demmin, in April 1945, the retreating German forces blew up all the bridges, leaving the town’s inhabitants isolated. When the Soviet army approached, panic caused an unprecedented tragedy. Approximately one thousand residents killed themselves in three days, most of whom were women.
The local shopkeeper, who sold chemical goods, supplied poison tablets to desperate mothers and then killed his whole family before giving them to the mothers. Mothers tied their children with clothes lines and jumped into the river with them, so that all would drown since no one would survive on their own. Searchers found dozens of families hanging from trees in the woods surrounding the village.
What could drive ordinary parents to kill their small children?
Nazi propaganda made millions of people think that enemy troops would only abuse and humiliate citizens, which, as it turned out, was not a false lie since many soldiers indeed abused civilians when they arrived. However, after years of terrorist propaganda, many believed that life without Hitler was impossible. For them, the suicide was a humane way to kill their children to avoid seeing them suffer. Besides, the food shortage made people desperate. I’d appreciate an upvote if you find it helpful and informative.

Picard taught me more about leadership than any MBA could.
He never raised his voice to be heard. He listened before he decided. He let Riker, Data, Worf argue him out of positions, and then owned the call completely. When he was wrong, he said so in front of the crew. When he was right, he didn't gloat.
And when he had to stand alone — against Starfleet, against the Borg, against a Cardassian with four lights — he stood.
That is the whole job. Build people who will tell you the truth, then carry the weight yourself.
Patrick Stewart played it so well that a generation of us mistook a character for a manual. Turns out the manual was fine.
A great actor, and a Yorkshire kid who started as an obituary writer. Today the obituary is his.
Make it so, Sir Patrick. Rest well.

I bet it won’t. Radiologists (myself included) welcome AI technologies that improve accuracy and efficiency, and some are already adding value in clinical practice. But I don’t believe AI will ever replace the full scope of what radiologists do.
isn't radiology the first thing AI fully automates? it's images in, a report out
i bet by the end of 2027 it runs almost on its own

ChatGPT-5 missed approximately half of distal radius fractures on plain x-rays when provided a single binary fracture-or-not prompt, according to a study.

Our residents are just the very best. Most tremendous. It’s amazing to me how across all these years, after COVID, so many things got more difficult but our residents at @YaleRadRes have been getting better and better. Our program is truly most tremendous.
Some of the fine doctors of @YaleRadRes & @YaleRadiology paused from their busy schedules today to take part in #CommunitiesCrushingCancer, greeting visitors to the @SmilowCancer lobby & providing educational outreach w/information on lung, breast, colon & liver cancer screening

This paper answers why confident idiots run the world.
Cornell University published a psychological paper that explains every terrible boss, every loud influencer, and every broken corporate hierarchy.
It’s called “Unskilled and Unaware of It.”
they tested participants across or to measure the gap between actual performance and self-perception.
And the results are wild.
participants scoring in the bottom 12th percentile consistently believed they were operating in the 62nd percentile.
they were not lying. they were literally incapable of recognizing their own incompetence.
the paper revealed a brutal paradox:
the exact skills required to master a domain are the exact same skills required to accurately evaluate your own competence in that domain.
if you lack the skill, you inherently lack the cognitive capacity to realize you are failing.
this creates a dangerous systemic loop.
the incompetent are blessed with absolute, blinding certainty. their brain protects them from their own ignorance, allowing them to speak first, demand authority, and never second-guess their decisions.
meanwhile, the actual experts suffer the exact inverse.
top performers in the study consistently underestimated their rank. because a task was easy for them, they falsely assumed it was easy for everyone else.
they hesitate. they obsess over nuance. they assume they have nothing unique to add.
we are biologically wired to confuse confidence with competence.
the loudest person in the room gets promoted, gets funded, and gets the microphone, not because they know what they are doing, but because they are physically incapable of seeing what they don't.
the only defense mechanism is building systems that stop rewarding absolute certainty and start demanding proof of work.

I recommended rejection for a paper that was, in my opinion, AI slop in both content and style. I was satisfied the editorial decision was for rejection, but it concerns me is that none of the other reviewers seemed to find problematic the AI-typical rhetoric. I don’t want to punish AI use automatically, and, indeed, I use AI in some of my own writing. The ideas content should be evaluated for what they’re worth. But in persuasive or semi-persuasive writing like position statements/perspectives (which this was), narrative reviews, or discussions of research articles, I do think reviewers/readers ought to be on the lookout for typical, whole-cloth AI writing that is super slick. I’m talking about out-of-the-box default model output that is unedited by human and scores 100% on Pangram. It can dress up vacuous claims and poor logic trains with vague clickbait statements and sales-pitch verbiage that inflates the importance of the supporting evidence. You see it all over LinkedIn and it’s begun to infiltrate scholarly journals. Editorial norms are still forming on this issue. What do you think?
