Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan01:13

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

88
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT

218
Radiological investigations, including X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans, are critical for diagnosing and evaluating various medical conditions. These imaging techniques provide valuable insights into the body's internal structures, aiding in the detection of abnormalities, assessment of disease progression, and development of treatment strategies. This article delves into two primary radiological investigations, chest X-rays and CT scans, outlining their purpose, procedures, and...

Positron Emission Tomography01:29

Positron Emission Tomography

4.1K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan

105
Description
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Diversity and Inclusion
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Inclusive residency programs are vital for recruiting and retaining diverse talent in radiology.
  • A 2022 LGBTQ+ inclusion audit provided a framework for assessing program inclusivity.
  • This study evaluated LGBTQ+ inclusivity across nine US radiology residency programs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the inclusivity of radiology residency programs using a multi-institutional LGBTQ+ inclusion audit.
  • To identify specific areas of strength and weakness in program inclusivity.
  • To gauge the impact of the audit on participants' perception of inclusivity.

Main Methods:

  • Recruited a volunteer cohort of academic radiology programs.
  • Modified the LGBTQ+ inclusion audit for multi-institutional application.
  • Administered pre- and post-audit surveys to assess perceived inclusivity.

Main Results:

  • Nine programs completed the audit, with scores ranging from 6 to 9 out of 10.
  • High scores were noted for inclusive facilities and institutional culture.
  • Department culture and community engagement were identified as areas needing improvement.

Conclusions:

  • Radiology residency programs show a high level of LGBTQ+ inclusivity.
  • All participating programs identified shortcomings in department policy and practice.
  • Departmental audits are valuable tools for fostering inclusive environments in radiology.
