商品描述

Based on the social media success of my series of articles around 'The Rules of Radiology' this follows on from the first volume ('The Rules of Radiology'), published in 2021. 'More Rules of Radiology' is the second and final volume that contains Rules 51-100. The Rules provide a guide to what radiology is and what radiologists do. Or rather what radiology should be and what radiologists should do.

This book and its prior sister volume looks hard not just at radiology but also provides a distinctly wry look at the curious and occasionally alien world of hospital-based medical practice. I ask questions and poke fun but it is serious intent. My motto is 'first make you laugh, then make you think'. Or, as George Bernard Shaw wrote, "My method is to take the utmost trouble to find the right thing to say, and then to say it with the utmost levity".

Each of the Rules addresses an important part of professional practice. I analyse the underpinning concepts of modern radiology, critically reflect on underlying assumptions, pose thoughtful questions and provide measured debate. All sprinkled with a mixture of weak jokes, puns and gratuitous word play.

As a relatively young but rapidly expanding specialty, there has been no guide for radiologists, no moral compass. Until now. I provide opinions and guidance on key matters; sometimes controversial but always reasoned. The hope is to provide the reader with much food for thought. Not only that but this volume and its predecessor aim to provide a manifesto for radiologists across the globe to raise their game and serve their patients better.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

根據我系列文章「放射學規則」在社交媒體上的成功,這本書是2021年出版的第一卷(「放射學規則」)的延續。「更多放射學規則」是第二卷也是最後一卷,包含規則51至100。這些規則提供了一個關於放射學是什麼以及放射科醫生做什麼的指導。或者更準確地說,放射學應該是什麼以及放射科醫生應該做什麼。

這本書及其前一卷不僅深入探討放射學,還以獨特的諷刺視角觀察醫院基礎醫療實踐的奇特且偶爾顯得陌生的世界。我提出問題並進行調侃,但這是出於認真的意圖。我的座右銘是「先讓你笑,再讓你思考」。或者,正如喬治·伯納德·肖所寫的,「我的方法是竭盡全力找到正確的話語,然後以最輕鬆的方式表達出來」。

每一條規則都針對專業實踐中的重要部分。我分析現代放射學的基本概念,批判性地反思潛在的假設,提出深思熟慮的問題並提供理性的辯論,並穿插一些弱小的笑話、雙關語和無意義的文字遊戲。

作為一個相對年輕但迅速擴展的專業領域,放射科醫生一直缺乏指導和道德指南針。直到現在。我提供對關鍵問題的意見和指導;有時具爭議性,但總是有理有據。希望能為讀者提供豐富的思考材料。不僅如此,這一卷及其前作旨在為全球的放射科醫生提供一份宣言,以提升他們的專業水平,更好地服務於患者。

作者簡介

Paul describes himself as a proud Yorkshireman, knowing that the word 'proud' here is a tautology. He qualified from St George's Hospital Medical School, trained in radiology in Sheffield then Bristol and has been a Consultant Radiologist at Southmead Hospital since 2004. He is an unrepentant Medical Educator (MEd Uni of Sheffield 2004), was an Anatomy Examiner (2008-2011) then Lead Anatomy Examiner for the Royal College of Radiologists (2011-15), RCR Human Factors Advisor (2016-18), Head of the Severn School of Radiology (2016-20) and is currently External Examiner for the Faculty of Radiology, Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland (2020-). His professional interests are largely summarised as being a 'giblet radiologist' and his hobbies include advanced procrastination and pretending to be an adult.

作者簡介(中文翻譯)

保羅自稱為一位驕傲的約克郡人,並知道這裡的「驕傲」一詞是個同義反覆。他畢業於聖喬治醫院醫學院,在謝菲爾德和布里斯托接受放射科訓練,自2004年以來一直擔任南米德醫院的顧問放射科醫生。他是一位毫不懺悔的醫學教育者(2004年獲得謝菲爾德大學的醫學碩士),曾擔任解剖學考官(2008-2011),然後是皇家放射科醫學院的首席解剖學考官(2011-2015),並擔任RCR人因因素顧問(2016-2018),還曾是塞文放射學院的院長(2016-2020),目前是愛爾蘭外科醫生皇家學院放射學院的外部考官(2020年至今)。他的專業興趣大致上可以總結為「內臟放射科醫生」,而他的興趣愛好包括高級拖延和假裝自己是一位成年人。
