We would like to extend a warm welcome to the new class of residents & fellows joining us today! We are so excited to have you here at @UCSFImaging.

'The person who told me I had cancer was a radiologist. The person was extremely compassionate, and I never forgot this.' There's always a person behind the film. Reaching out to patients makes a huge difference! Dr. Glaucomflecken #PFCC #Kindness #Compassion #ACR2023

1/Do radiologists sound like they are speaking a different language when they talk about MRI? T1 shortening what? T2 prolongation who?

Here’s a translation w/a #tweetorial introduction to MRI.

- Sometimes discharging patients on a less effective once a day medication that they’ll actually take is better than discharging them on a q8 medicine they’ll never take
- Pick something from each patient to teach your medical student

One of the things I’ll miss most about DC is the spring time. Took this on my walk into lab this morning.

You’ve Matched Now What

-VIP your program coordinator’s email
-find a place to live: generally < 20-30 min from the hospital. Add cost of parking at home/work
-if you live in a snowy place, consider covered parking
-inter-city moves in Boston/NYC: look into moving trucks early

Join us in congratulating to our newest Diagnostic & Integrated Interventional Radiology residents who matched with us today. We are #UCSFProud to welcome you here! #Match2023 #RadRes #MatchDay radiology.ucsf.edu/blog/welcome-i…

In honor of Match Day approaching, I thought I would make a small thread of tips for being a good intern. I’m no expert — just an intern who has hopefully learned a thing or two over the last 8 months. I've never done a thread before, so I'm not even sure I'm doing this right.

So grateful to share that Joey Gu and I matched into DR!!!

We took the risk of prioritizing couples-matching/staying together, and it’s a relief to know that no matter where we’ll be, we’ll be together 🥰

Residency pro tip: You will always be tired. Go have fun anyway.

I don’t understand why hospitals are so scared of their residents unionizing. University of Michigan’s resident union has been a net benefit for…everybody. What is the downside?
Make me understand.

Oof #radiology we have work to do….AAWR American College of Radiology RSNA #radwomen #radleaders #RADEqual

An interventional radiologist can…
-Stop bleeding from trauma or the intestinal tract
-Open blocked arteries/veins
-Shrink symptomatic enlarged prostates in men & fibroids in women
-Cure cancers in liver, kidney & lung
-Treat aneurysms before they burst
-& more! #withoutascalpel

Well, looks like ChatGPT can pass the USMLE now.
