“Finding From The Field”—An Approach To Encourageexperiential And Epistemological Reflection, Julian Kilker

UNLV Best Teaching Practices Expo

The “Findings from the Field” teaching practice asks students to document and analyze experiences, locations, or artifacts encountered outside the classroom. While traditional field trips emphasize experiential learning by, ideally, linking course concepts to real-world experiences, this “Findings from the Field” approach extends this model through epistemological reflection guided by annotating observations. Students are prompted to consider not only what they observe, but how they know what they know, encouraging metacognition about observation, experience, and empirical research.

A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, analyzing peer-reviewed studies published between 2015 and 2025. Data were extracted on key performance metrics, including sensitivity, specificity, interpretation time, and error rates, to enable cross-modality comparison. Results demonstrated that AI achieved high diagnostic accuracy in X-ray imaging, with average sensitivity and specificity near 91% and …

Designing A Multilingual Instructional Language Tool For Patient Communication In Interventional Radiology, Samuel Almodóvar, Ahlam Houssein, Gregg Khodorov, Md, Mba, Sahib Sohal, Md, Robert Pugliese, Pharmd, David Dwyer, Md

Alpha Omega Alpha Research Symposium Posters

Introduction: Current efforts to provide language-inclusive radiological care fall short, resulting in suboptimal imaging, increased procedural time, and greater radiation exposure. Inadequate language accessibility results in poor communication, suboptimal care, and increased patient dissatisfaction. A digital language tool was developed to provide patient instructions during interventional radiology (IR) procedures, addressing this gap and enhancing patient care.

Methods: Observations were carried out to better understand workflow during IR procedures and identify how to incorporate the tool. We conducted interviews with IR physicians, nurses, and technologists to gather common procedural phrases and patient instructions. Spanish and Mandarin were selected because they are …

Stronger Isn't Always Better: 1.5 Tesla Vs 3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scanners, Taylor Deiter

Student Research Poster Presentations 2026

Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging modality that does not use ionizing radiation. Instead, MRI uses magnetic fields, gradience, coils, and radio frequency to provide anatomic and physiologic information. The purpose of the research study is to examine the strengths and weaknesses of a 1.5 tesla to a 3-tesla magnetic resonance imaging scanner. Cross sectional images are produced to better visualize muscles, organs, and soft tissues for diagnostic purposes. MRI screening and safety is a crucial part of the modality. The most common magnetic strength used for clinical diagnosis are 1.5 and 3 teslas. The higher the strength …

Prostatic Urethral Length On Mri As A Predictor Of Late Genitourinary Toxicity After Prostate Cancer Radiation, Kyu Kim, Joseph Lee, Allison Hazy, Sayf Al-Katib, Hong Ye, Nathan Kolderman, Abhay Dhaliwal, Daniel Krauss, Thomas Quinn, Kimberly Marvin, Kiran R. Nandalur

Posters

Radiation therapy (RT) is a widely used treatment for prostate cancer.1 While effective, some patients develop late genitourinary (GU) toxicity, which can impact quality of life.2,4 Identifying pre-treatment factors that predict toxicity risk may help improve clinical decision-making. Recent studies suggest that prostatic urethral length (PUL) seen on MRI is associated with an increased risk of late GU toxicity.3 Understanding this relationship could enhance risk stratification before treatment.

CAC scoring has emerged as a widely available, consistent, and reproducible means of assessing risk for major cardiovascular outcomes, especially useful in asymptomatic people for planning primary prevention interventions such as statins and aspirin.1 The Multiethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) demonstrated that a CAC score of 0 represents a less than 5 percent 10-year Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. CAC scores 1-299 represent borderline to intermediate risk, and CAC score >300 represents a “high risk” 10 percent or greater 10-year ASCVD risk.2

When used correctly, CAC scoring is a powerful predictor of ASCVD risk and holds the key for many …

Radiation Dose In Computed Tomography (Ct), Helen Minnick

Medical Imaging Senior Posters

Computed Tomography (CT) is a critical diagnostic tool that delivers rapid, detailed cross-sectional imaging but remains a major contributor to medical radiation exposure. Increasing use of CT has led to concerns about excessive or low-value exams, including repeat scans that do not often change patient management and may increase long-term cancer risk. Evidence shows that only a small percentage of repeat head CTs reveal clinically significant findings, underscoring the importance of justification and reducing unnecessary imaging. Pediatric patients are particularly vulnerable due to increased tissue radiosensitivity and longer lifespans, making dose optimization essential. National initiatives such as Image Gently and …

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Safety And Considerations, Lauren Mosier

Medical Imaging Senior Posters

Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is considered to be a safe, non-invasive diagnostic modality. However, the presence of a strong magnetic field creates inherent risks when safety protocols are not followed. This project examines MRI safety, with particular focus on the recent fatality in New York, where a person was killed by a projectile accident in the scanner room. Such events highlight the catastrophic consequences that can result from lapses in screening procedures, inadequate staff training, or poor enforcement of zone protocols. By reviewing this incident in the context of MRI safety protocols, this project emphasizes the ongoing need for …

A Hidden Source Of Ostomy Bleeding: Meckel Diverticulum, Shiva Morisetty, Ezekiel Kapusiak, Kumar Shah

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2025

Adult Meckel diverticulum can present atypically compared to classic childhood Meckel diverticulum. Given the increased likelihood of concurrent medical conditions in adults, it is often overlooked in the differential for lower gastrointestinal bleeding. We report a 61-year-old male with rectal adenocarcinoma status post low anterior resection and diverting loop ileostomy who presented repeatedly with hematochezia via the ostomy. Prior episodes were managed conservatively. During the index admission, esophagogastroduodenoscopy and ileoscopy did not identify a bleeding source; a clip was placed near the suspected site. Interventional radiology was consulted for mesenteric angiography. Superior mesenteric angiography demonstrated a tortuous aberrant ileal branch …

Fatal Overlapping Cns Infections: Radiologic Correlates Of Ventriculitis, Encephalitis, And Meningitis​, Jesse F. Simon, Sara Darwish, Stephanie Nagy, Richard Shalmiyev, David Kosoy, Bryan Rubio, Gustavo Pantol, Mauricio Danckers

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2025

Introduction: This case study explores an uncommon triad of encephalitis, ventriculitis, and meningitis complicated by ischemic strokes and seizures in a COVID-19-positive patient. Prior studies suggest that bacterial meningitis and encephalitis can lead to cerebral infarctions due to inflammation and vascular injury.1,2,5 Ventriculitis, in particular, is rarely observed and typically is seen as a severe complication of meningitis, and can be managed with neurosurgical interventions such as CSF shunt placement, ventricular drains, or other intracranial devices.3,4 The simultaneous presentation of all three conditions in a single patient is rare and poses significant challenges from a diagnostic and management standpoint.

Introduction Metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease in children in the United States and, when left untreated, can progress to liver fibrosis. Clinicians currently utilize imaging and biopsy to assess fibrosis in this patient population as there is no validated serum biomarker available for detecting fibrosis. Previous research suggests that serum hyaluronic acid levels are predictive of hepatic fibrosis in children with MASLD. Methods Retrospective data were obtained from the Children’s Mercy Hospital Liver Lab study. Pediatric subjects with both hyaluronic acid (HA) samples and MRI evaluation within a month were identified and included for …

Department of Radiation Oncology Posters

Background

• Alpha-emitting radionuclides show promise for targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy (TRT).
• High linear energy transfer and short range cause highly localized DNA damage for effective cancer cell eradication.
• However, distributions of radioactivity and absorbed dose on the cellular scale remain elusive.
• Progress toward understanding α-TRT radiobiologic response, evaluating novel α-TRT drug efficacy, and optimizing administration for personalized treatments will require knowledge of radioactivity and absorbed dose distributions.
• A novel real-time α camera, the ionizing radiation quantum imaging detector (iQID), has successfully mapped the microdistribution of α-emitting radionuclides in mouse and human tissues [1].
