Report from IRIA 2015: Teleradiology begins at home
Dr. Saurabh Jha's passage to India continues in this article about teleradiology in the world's most populous democracy. While U.S. radiologists fear the specter of Indian radiologists flooding the market with low-cost interpretations, a chat with Indian teleradiology pioneer Dr. Sumer Sethi reveals that such fears couldn't be further from the truth.

Who is the better radiologist?
If you were a patient, which radiologist would you rather have reading CT scans: the methodical but thorough plodder who orders lots of follow-up studies or the decisive reader who occasionally misses pathology? Would your answer change if you were an administrator? Or a referring physician? Dr. Saurabh Jha explores these questions.

The rise of the multispecialty radiologist
Ongoing tightness in the labor market for radiologists and recent changes in the board exams have led to an intriguing new phenomenon: radiologist trainees who complete second fellowships. Although this entails a longer career path, it does have some potential advantages, according to Dr. Saurabh Jha.

Second Take: Crackdown on board recalls is justified
When the controversy over radiology board recalls erupted in January 2012, it created a public relations headache for radiology that continues to reverberate. In our inaugural edition of Second Take, Dr. Saurabh Jha takes the position that radiologists must respond immediately to public concerns about recalls, even if they may be unfair or unjustified.

Death of the general radiologist: Have reports been exaggerated?
In times of shortage, we find out what we value most. And in these times of relative penury in the job market for radiologists, it appears that employers value -- above and beyond anything else -- the general radiologist.

EVT promising in patients with extracranial ICA occlusions
Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) and best medical treatment are both effective and safe options for patients with acute extracranial internal carotid artery occlusions.
Images depict a 49-year-old female participant with cryptogenic cirrhosis who presented with a 3.2-cm liver lesion. This biopsy-confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with an initial categorization of Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) category LR-4 (probably HCC) at CT was upgraded to LR-5 (definitely HCC) at contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). (A) Precontrast CT images in the liver show vague hypoattenuation in the medial left hepatic lobe (arrows). (B) Arterial phase images demonstrate no definite arterial phase hyperenhancement (arrows). (C) Washout and an enhancing capsule (arrows) on a late-phase image resulted in an LR-4 categorization. (D) B-mode ultrasound shows a round hypoechoic nodule (arrows). (E) An early-phase CEUS image shows clear arterial-phase hyperenhancement (arrows); (F) No washout at one minute (arrows), and (G) late, mild washout at four minutes (arrows) resulted in a CEUS LR-5 categorization.
