RSNA 2014 Update - A Centennial Celebration

This past week, from November 30 to December 5, the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) celebrated its 100th anniversary at its 2014 ANNUAL MEETING.

Two of NationalRad's musculoskeletal radiologists, TIMOTHY G. SANDERS, MD and WILLIAM B. MORRISON, MD, were on hand to lead interactive case-based review sessions. Dr. Sanders led an upper extremity magnetic resonance session while Dr. Morrison led an ankle and foot musculoskeletal radiology session. Dr. Morrison was also involved in several musculoskeletal poster discussions, including the following:

• The Incipient Breach of the Midline Pubic Plate: Is this MRI Finding Key to Early Diagnosis and Prevention of Athletic Pubalgia?
• Early Findings of Charcot Arthropathy on MR Imaging
• Acromial Apophysiolysis of the Skeletally Immature Shoulder: Prevalence, Risk Factors and Association with os Acromiale and Rotator Cuff Tears
