Grand Rounds Recap 4.18.18
This week we got a refreshing look at soft tissue ultrasound from our US guru Dr. Stolz. We then moved to the opposite end of modern imaging with the rarely indicated but intermittently very useful KUB by Dr. Skrobut. Drs Kiser and Ventura battled it out in a CPC case of pyloric stenosis then the R4s ran a simulation and small group on global health pathologies.

Is the KUB a relic of an era of simpler diagnostics or a viable alternative to the cost and radiation of cross-sectional imaging? Join Dr. Skrobut as he parces through the indications, pathologies and literature of the abdominal plain film.
