Description
Welcome to Transition to the Wards, the bridge from the classroom to the wards. Part of that successful transition will include appropriate comprehension and utilization of diagnostic imaging. I have been claiming from the first week of Med School that "Radiology is the Sun, around which the clinical planets rotate". The vast majority of your patients, be they emergent, routine, or anywhere in between, are likely to have had or to be having some sort of imaging procedure in their diagnostic assessment, treatment planning and therapy, and follow-up. We are hoping to help you evolve as intelligent, informed, patient-centric 'consumers', who understand how to consult with Radiology and Radiologists, how to weigh the cost/benefit ratio of any imaging decisions, understand which studies may or may not be appropriate in individual circumstances, how/when/where to refer when more information is needed, and have some insight into the increasingly urgent issues of dose and cost.
