Idk if that’s much better
By requiring the US to rely on often adversarial countries to supply some of its most crucial military components like rare earth minerals, the US couldn’t really go toe to toe with those countries.
I’m just not sure if they factored in the rapid technological rise of those adversarial countries like China.
Or maybe it really is the simplest answer that it was all purely in effort to obtain the greatest profit margins…
Disrupt the internet and good luck getting your emergent studies read by doctors who don’t look at anything to do with the scans and X-rays they order other than the Radiologists report.
Lots of completely out of touch comments
Especially after seeing what the “learn to code” movement has brought people into, I can’t imagine those people will just roll over and peacefully enter homeless encampments..
I love the cat doors everywhere! Great idea to keep the litter boxes sequestered.
Howdy from Houston fellow Texan!
The more everyone the better! There are definitely times when it’s nice to have some guys with muscles around when it comes time to transfer a non ambulatory patient to an X-ray or CT table, but the ladies get it done too!
I empathize with you as my grandmother is also being what feels like gaslit by several doctors being told her symptoms are dementia and not from the chronic UTI’s she suffers from, but when the UTI’s clear all of a sudden no symptoms. Our medical system is very frustrating, between doctors who don’t have the time needed for complicated cases, or the threat of every patient suing them causing them to be overly cautious.
I think as long as you’re aware of the pitfalls of AI, as you seem to be, it’s a solid tool for helping to understand medical situations with the right amount of double checking.
I don’t think our system will improve until 1) We increase the amount of doctors in our country and tell Congress to quit limiting the amount we can train yearly, and 2) the system of liability for doctors is changed to be more like New Zealand’s where their liability insurance is nationalized and they’re not at constant threat of losing everything to a lawsuit over a patient who wouldn’t take their meds and got worse (the cases are generally much more complex than that, but the idea is it’s not always the doctors fault as media would have us believe).
You would think that the AI would point out that calcium is best demonstrated on Radiographs/CT imaging vs Ultrasound or something to that effect.
