This is incredible! Huge credit to the team delivering this. Much attention on AR/VR but this technology is still likely to provide better sensory feedback than any current for haptics. This must be the current ideal in no patient-risk training.

In Long Covid and ME/CFS patients, Dr. VanElzakker and his team are using PET-MRI scans to determine areas of neuroinflammation. Analysis of blood from Long Covid patients undergoing the scans “found several mediators associated with vascular problems that correlated with the neuroinflammation signal.” These included elevated L-selectin, responsible for leukocyte extravasion into tissues; and fibrinogen, a main blood clotting component.

I visited the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham to meet the NHS liver transplant team and hear directly from patients. I met liver physiotherapist Ashlea Hargreaves and Charlotte Vockins, a liver transplant patient and ExaLT trial participant who is now a leading advocate for liver health policy. With waiting lists already down by 86,000, we’re committed to rebuilding the NHS, backing staff and investing in the care patients rely on.

CAC Coronary Artery Calcium Scan: New Heart Disease Test Causes Cancer. Major Organizations Warn Public Against It... 42 Of Every 100K Patients Develop Cancer From Ionizing Radiation. Radiation Dosage Varies 10X From One Hospital To Another, Causing 5,600 New Cases Of Cancer. The American Heart Association, American College of Cardiology & the United States Preventive Services Task Force do not recommend the use of heart CT scans for patients with a low or high risk of heart disease because CT scans could be more harmful than beneficial due to the relatively high dose of radiation. "Tens of millions of adults would be exposed to relatively high levels of radiation through this procedure. Doctors still have not established a standard dose of radiation to be used for heart CT scans & doses for this test vary from one hospital to another, with some patients getting 10X the amount of radiation as patients in another hospital." A 2009 study showed that one heart CT scan for the 50 million Americans who would receive the average radiation dose, these scans would result in 5,600 new cancer cases. The number of new cancer cases would be even higher if individuals were screened more than once in their lifetime. Radiation from CT scans is even of concern to the FDA even when the CT scans are necessary. On October 9, 2009, the FDA announced that it was notifying healthcare professionals that 206 patients who were being tested for stroke received CT radiation doses that were 8X the expected level at one particular medical facility. While this event involved a single kind of diagnostic test at one facility, the FDA warned that “it reflects more widespread problems with CT quality assurance programs.” Each year, over 600,000 Americans die from heart disease even though heart disease can be prevented. Although heart CT scanning may be a useful tool in detecting blockages in heart arteries, there is not enough evidence to show that this test is worth the risks, especially compared to traditional risk factor assessment. For this reason, the Cancer Prevention & Treatment Fund of the National Research Center for Women & Families agrees with the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force that heart CT scans are not recommended for screening for heart disease. 👇CAC Screening Radiation 10X Cancer Risk👇 👇Ionizing Radiation Risk From CAC Test👇 👇Cancer Risk From CT Scan Radiation👇 Video: Dr David Alfrey

Our team has two incredible, full-time professionals—Mary and Ebonie—dedicated to dealing with insurance. They advocate for our patients, so our patients can focus on healing. This week? They’ve been on repeat calls with the same insurer, trying to add procedure codes so patients can receive coverage for sensation preserving mastectomies. Twice now, after 30+ minutes on the line, the call just ends. No reference number. No resolution. Just—terminated. And without a reference number, there’s no way to track it, no accountability, and no clear path forward. All we have are the first names of the representatives who hung up. This happens often. And it’s exhausting. But we won’t stop showing up for patients. We’ll keep sharing these stories—because this shouldn’t be normal. Patients deserve better. Providers deserve better.

The Prime Minister's threats of removing training places are bad for doctors and bad patients. These threats are not a credible way to end this dispute. We're in talks with government today to reach a deal that doctors can support, and that's good for patients, to avoid strikes.

Kennedy shared a chilling account of what would happen when doctors dared to put patients before insurance company policies. He described a patient from New Jersey who was suffering from severe heart failure and was transferred to New York-Presbyterian Hospital for a life-saving transplant. The transplant itself had been approved by the insurance company, but shockingly, the mechanical heart pump needed to keep the patient alive until the transplant could take place was denied. With the patient already in the operating room, the medical team faced an impossible choice: follow the insurer’s decision and let the patient die, or act to save his life, risking their careers. They chose to implant the device. The patient survived and ultimately received the transplant. But Kennedy revealed that “my friend—the doctor—was then sued by the insurance company” for defying the denial. That lawsuit was later dropped, but Kennedy said the ordeal highlights the madness of a system that punishes doctors for putting patients ahead of insurance companies.
