Dr. Refky Nicola speaks with Dr. Divya Kumari and Ashima Kundu about their analysis of more than three decades of malpractice payment data, revealing why diagnostic errors dominate radiology litigation and how outpatient care contributes to risk. They discuss practical strategies for trainees and institutions to reduce diagnostic failures, the impact of legal reforms, and how artificial intelligence may reshape malpractice exposure in the future.
Dr. Siddhant Dogra speaks with Dr. Ali Tejani about the essential AI literacy skills radiologists need to thrive in an era of foundation models, clinical AI tools, and rapidly evolving workflows. Together they explore AI education, model evaluation, human AI collaboration, workflow integration, and practical strategies for becoming a critical and informed user of radiology AI.
Dr. Linda Chu welcomes Dr. Robert McDonald (Mayo Clinic) and Dr. Paul Evans (GE HealthCare) for a discussion on the evolution of MR contrast agents, exploring how gadolinium has changed MRI diagnostics and what decades of clinical experience have taught the radiology community. The conversation also looks ahead to emerging contrast technologies, including iron and manganese based agents and other innovations that could shape the future of MR imaging, safety, and sustainability.
