In this episode, named after an article written by Dr Brady in 2021, we discuss how the changing nature of radiologist work is having the paradoxical effect of making us less visible to our clinical colleagues and patients, at a time when radiology has never been more integral to patient care. Dr Brady also introduces the concept of value based radiology and explains why we need to shift the emphasis from volume to value of outputs.

This month we have the 3rd instalment of our fellowship series as we speak to Dr Rosalind Williamson, Paediatric Radiology Consultant at Alder Hey Children's Hospital, who in 2020 spent a year at The Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne, Australia.

In this episode we speak to Dr Eric Gantwerker, who is a Paediatric ENT doctor from the US and Medical Director at Level Ex, a company who specialise in making (actual fun) educational video games for doctors. He explains the educational theory that backs up the use of gaming for education, runs us through their current games, gives us a sneak peak into their upcoming Radiology offerings and tells us what the future has in store for medical education. Will we all be learning in the metaverse? Does anyone actually know what that means???...

In this episode we chat to Dr Koshy Jacob, the man behind Revise Radiology, the most well known platform for FRCR exams preparation.
