More about this episode
Dr. Murthy outlines the lecture structure (morning didactics, noon case-based sessions) and a curriculum shift toward on-demand video learning via Modality, alongside books, Radiopaedia, and targeted journal use. They discuss conference learning at SIR, the role of podcasts like BackTable, and balancing information overload.
AI comes up in both clinical workflows (Epic-generated hospital-course summaries that can be wrong) and education (Claude/Notion for organizing study), with debate about limiting AI for trainees versus preparing for future practice. The resident explains learning procedures across multiple devices, relying on techs, industry training and exhibit halls, and notes receiving a resident teaching award while emphasizing the need for better IR exposure and simulation-based training content.
