#RSNA2022 #RSNA22 diaries - Part 2
Conversations of MP with MDCT and Oarm re #RSNA2022 meeting

MDCT: Hey doc, O-arm is on his way. We want to hear more about @RSNA

MP: I only have 30 min as I need to attend #IRB meeting

MDCT: Ok doc, tell us about technical exhibits?
1/

MP: Technical exhibits were again quite interesting, sprawling over both North and South side @MccormickPlaceM One highlight of walking through technical exhibits was meeting friends after a long time

MDCT: How was the sessions on #PCCT?

2/

MP: They were good, however, since there is only one vendor who has received FDA clearance, all talks were based on that one vendor for #PCCT. I wish other vendors get their systems approved for clinic use soon

O-arm: Anything new to keep all those attendees entertained?

3/

MP: Glad you asked O. Yes, on Lakeside near posters, they had bands playing pleasant music. Even on Southside, they had people playing music during lunch hour

MDCT: What about that building you & your friends were standing on – I saw the photo doc

4/

MP: That was a mural painted on floor & if one stand at the designated point to take pictures, it appears as 3D. We were not on any building top, just on the mural which appears that way.

MDCT: It looks quite realistic.

5/

MDCT: BTW, my cousin's daughter said she saw your photo on a wall in one of your tweets. Hope it wasn’t on any shop or police station.

MP: No buddy, @RSNA R&E displays all their regular donors near donor lounge. Since I contribute regularly, they had my photo next to others
6/

O-arm: Why do you donate doc? What is it for?

MP: Glad you asked, @RSNA R&E does such a good job of giving out scholarships & grants which are the basis for many radiologists, medical physicists to get bigger grants.

7/

MD: In fact, this year, the return on investments is 1: 50, which means for every one dollar, it leads to obtaining $50 worth of grants.

O-arm: Doc, you don’t need to explain what 1:50 means, we are not that dumb, we can understand.

MDCT: What else doc?

8/

MP: It was quite interesting but tiring. Evenings were great to meet friends & break breads together.

MDCT: So overall crowds have returned, & meeting was nice then

MP: Yes, I am already looking forward to #RSNA2023. There is still so much to tell you guys, but I need to go
