Here is the the twelth Radiology Grand Rounds, hosted on the last sunday of each month with archives maintained by me here-
Radiology Grand Rounds


We start this radiology Grand rounds with a Radiology Quiz
It goes like-
Radiology Quiz!
"A young lady in her 30s was referred to me for having serous mixed with blood(haemoserous) discharge from her previous abdominal incision. This discharge increased during her menses and with the same consistency. She had an emergency surgery a year ago for a ruptured uterus from pyometra (pus within the uterus) She was found to have a congenital (from birth) anomaly. This is her hysterogram"


Blast from the Past


Here is an interesting write up about the X-ray discovery
""Is it light?""No.""Is it electricity?""Not in any known form.""What is it?""I don't know."And the discoverer of the X rays thus stated as calmly his ignorance of their essence as has everybody else who has written on the phenomena thus far."


Radiology Journal Section


Choosing and using bibliographic software
"I’m sure most of you out there have a collection of articles gathered from many journals, and neatly (or not) filed away in your office. Reading and indexing information from the literature used to mean trips to the library with the photocopy card and sitting down with the highlighter to read them.Starting in the late 90’s, many journals started posting abstracts and full text articles online. Pubmed also became a huge resource for searching the most recent literature for citations. All of these electronic references need to be stored somewhere, and paperless filing is becoming a much more viable option. Hard drives have almost limitless memory, and interfaces for saving references electronically have become much more user friendly. Now you need to decide how to choose bibliographic software, and how you will use it."
