AATS: Low-dose CT outruns x-ray for lung cancer surveillance
In a study of more than 300 patients undergoing surveillance after lung cancer surgery, ultralow-dose CT far outperformed chest radiography for detecting cancer recurrence, concluded a study presented this week at the 2013 American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS) meeting in Minneapolis.

ABIM: Board recalls threaten integrity of medicine
Stung by its own board recall controversy, the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) has joined the chorus of U.S. medical boards opposing the use of exam "recalls" to prepare for board exams. A new article in Mayo Clinic Proceedings condemns recalls as a practice that threatens the integrity of medicine.

Trauma CT is overkill for transferred patients
When trauma patients are transferred to an emergency department from another institution, a standard trauma CT protocol is the last thing you want to do, say researchers from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). Focused imaging based on the individual patient's medical history and clinical findings is more useful, they concluded.

Debates trump didactic lectures for educating residents
There's no better way to put an audience of residents to sleep than submit them to a traditional didactic lecture. But offer the same material to them as a lively debate and they'll sit up and take notice, say researchers from Pennsylvania, who are using the debate format as a key part of teaching.
