Mary's Musings: Radiologists must rule professional evaluation
Physician performance evaluation is moving from a nice-to-have option to a necessity, thanks to Joint Commission rules being adopted across the U.S. Dr. Mary Morrison Saltz believes this is a good time for radiologists to take control of the evaluation process -- before someone does it for them.

Mary's Musings: Teamwork and proper exposure for radiologists
The theme of the RSNA 2013 meeting is "The Power of Partnership." This has prompted Dr. Mary Morrison Saltz to ponder what the role of partnership means in an era when technology seems to have taken the human element out of much of what radiologists do. Can technology bring the human touch back?

Mary's Musings: Why the world of radiology still belongs to men
Some recent articles have suggested the existence of a gender gap in pay for radiologists. In my experience, I've never made as much as my male colleagues -- and that's OK with me. Why? Let me tell you a story of not so long ago.

Mary's Musings: An x-ray jacket -- the radiology wiki that was
Mornings were rough, but Sylvia was right there with a cup of coffee, just the way I liked it. That was pretty special, a mark of importance, because she didn't bring coffee to just anyone -- after all, she was the linchpin of the radiology department. Why? She ran the file room.

Mary's Musings: Is the private-practice radiologist extinct?
Back when I finished training, most really strong residents went out and sought the best private-practice opportunities -- good groups with a sure path to partnership.
