When did the thoracic vertebral fracture occur ? Could there be a connection to the trauma?? [ There are even some case reports of SAPHO being triggered by a traumatic event.]
I made it ... just in time
It was quite a task but I made it. ​At the beginning of 2024, I had this idea. An idea so powerful and crazy, that I was a bit afraid of doing it, to be honest. Well, I had this idea for a long time, but at new years eve I finally decided to take action and started working on it in January, while teleradiology business was calm. And here is a little trick I didn't just started working on it secretly, I told everybody that I am doing it! Why? Because that creates commitment and accountability. It is a great trick for many things if you suffer from procrastinating. So I told everybody in March I will bring this idea to life. I wanted to teach people how to report knee MRI in under 5 minutes. 5min! I had only 8 weeks to do everything from scratch. The first few weeks I was building out the script and outline. Good! I was investing in new equipment to film, new lights, new backdrop, new background lights etc. That is nice, and it took me way to long lol. I prepared all the PowerPoint slides and structure to film etc. By the time it was February, I had all the equipment, I tested it, but haven't filmed a single minute of content yet 😯 However, people were already purchasing the 5min knee MRI masterclass. I was getting more and more nervous. What If I don't finish in time? There was always something else to do (mainly family and teleradiology). So I made some changes to my schedule to get a full day of filming and bäm... 50% was recorded in one single day and I finished week 1 of the training after editing and uploading the course material to the platform in the same week the course launched. I was ready to launch, phew... So when week 1 launched on March 1st, I did not yet have the other 4 weeks ready. In a big push and another whole day of filming, editing and 2 more days of uploading and creating the other weeks, I managed to finish the full course this week (while students are still working through week 1). And I am really happy to see what this first cohort of 45 radiologists will achieve with the training, more on this in the upcoming weeks.

Hi Chris - I really think that what makes you a good teacher is exactly this type of sharing of the life-experience of time management, challenges and how to commit in one's work. Although you are on a totally different level to most of us in MSK, by sharing these experiences you make all of us feel that we are all in the process together. I think we all appreciate it very much - thanks for being both a good example and a capable leader - I ( and I am sure all of us on your groups) wish you ongoing further success while still having quality family time ! Congratulations! Herzlichen Glückwunsch! Felicitaciones! Félicitations ! Complimenti! Veels geluk! 🌻
Monitor for home reporting
Hey guys. I was wondering, what monitors are you using for home reporting? Maybe you have any advice or recommendations on certain monitors? Thanks!

I think the following may be of interest: Here is a technical discussion about the requirements and suitable environment for reporting : https://myxraydose.com/setting-up-a-radiologist-remote-reporting-display/ Regarding the monitors, we bought extremely costly Beacon monitors originally, but have a look at this much more affordable option - LG 27HJ713C-B The 27HJ713C-B 27" 16:9 8MP IPS Clinical Review Monitor from LG - a 3840 x 2160 resolution. In-Plane-Switching panel. Complies with the DICOM Part 14 regulations and is UL medical grade listed.

These are excellent - if available where you are: LG 27HJ713C-B The 27HJ713C-B 27" 16:9 8MP IPS Clinical Review Monitor from LG - a 3840 x 2160 resolution. In-Plane-Switching panel. Complies with the DICOM Part 14 regulations and is UL medical grade listed. It is a broad 'landscape' monitor and the screen ''splits'' into two - so effectively it is like two vertical 'portrait ' monitors.

I do not think it can be infectious. Apart from the option of SAPHO, is there a possibility that this could be SPA or Psoriatic Arthritis- related? See this poster: It seems they had thorough rheumatological data on all these patients. I assume that in most SPA and Psoriatic patients, the sternum is not imaged if it does not feature prominently clinically - could it be that it is more common than we realized up to now, as suggested by this study ? Poster - ‘’To determine the prevalence of sternal edema and sterno-clavicular joint synovitis in patients with SpA and axial PsA with spine MRI ...... Sternal edema occurred in around one third of patients with SpA and axial PsA.’’ https://www.grappanetwork.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Grappa-Poster-Final.-impresion.pdf @Kay Hermann

https://pubs.rsna.org/doi/10.1148/rg.230188 Radiographics Oct 26 2023 It seems that the capsulofemoral band is still being ignored a bit - these authors say that they described it – and that it is thickened when there is meniscal extrusion – but it is still not mentioned in other articles……….
