CCTA has many advantages over SPECT MPI as a first-line test for stable chest pain: 🎯 Better diagnostic performance 💰 Lower overall costs ☢️ Lower radiation dose 🌱 Lower energy use So why do many jurisdictions in Canada still prioritize MPI over CCTA as the first-line test? #RadSky #YesCCT

Consortium for Cancer Implementation Science (CCIS) annual meeting, scheduled for next Weds-Fri, was postponed (unclear until when… maybe indefinitely). It’s an NIH-sponsored mtg and the first imp sci mtg at which I was presenting my work. I was really looking forward to it 😔

Finally made it to #NYC 🗽🍎 It’s SO 🥶 here!! I’m wearing a full cashmere sweatsuit, shearling vest, and a fur coat and I’m still cold!! (Btw, the vest is vintage and the coat is lined with fur on the inside rather than leather, so no animals were hurt 🙂)

Because Donald Trump is flying into Miami International Airport for another weekend of golf, the airport just shut down (as we were about to take off) and we’re all stuck here for the next 3 hours. It would be nice if he cared about anyone else other than himself.

Excited to be going back to NYC this morning! Will be nice to work on-site in the hospital and attend in-person meetings the next couple weeks. I woke up early to do the stair stepper (bc I’m obsessed 😆), and caught one last sunrise before I left 🌅 Have a great day, everyone!

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
