CIDI - Workshop on Infectious Disease Imaging - September 2014
The Center for Infectious Disease Imaging (CIDI) is a cooperative initiative between Radiology and Imaging Sciences at the NIH Clinical Center and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). CIDI was established in 2009 to perform basic science, translational, and clinical research on the imaging features of infectious disease, including CT, nuclear medicine, MRI, ultrasound, radiography, and optical modalities. These efforts comprise a new initiative at NIH to advance the knowledge of radiology-pathology-virology correlation with clinical translation in the study of infectious disease and emerging p...

Confirming ET Tube Placement with Ultrasound
An indirect method for assessing proper placement of the ET tube is to watch the pleura for the presence of the slide sign. The pleura are easily identified from the anterior chest wall utilizing the high-frequency transducer. The transducer should be placed just inferior to the clavicle in the mid-clavicular line. Pointing the indicator toward the patient’s head will produce an image that is easy to interpret. Once the skin, soft tissue, and ribs have been identified, the pleura will be seen as a hyperechoic (white) line running just deep to the rib. In real time, the pleura slide back and forth with respiration. (Sourc...

The Speed of Sound: Video 2. SUPRAclavicular for Subclavian Lines
Read Dr. Butts’ article, “Think SUPRAclavicular for Subclavian Lines,” in the July 2013 issue, and then view this video that shows assessment of the venous anatomy as seen under ultrasound. The internal jugular (IJ) vein is seen as the triangular vessel that appears to fluctuate slightly with respiration. As the view progresses inferiorly, the IJ can be seen to join the SCV, which appears tubular in this orientation. (Source: Emergency Medicine News - Video)

Lessons Learned from a Medical Mission
Dr. Mellick shares wisdom learned on his mission to the Dominican Republic, like a shotgun approach to STDs and using ultrasound when no other imaging is available. (Source: Emergency Medicine News - Video)
