Dr. Mary-Louise Greer and Dr. Caroline Rutten explore 23 years of data on pediatric playground trauma, highlighting clear injury patterns, the unique features of the growing skeleton, and the diagnostic pitfalls radiologists must watch for. They discuss why equipment like monkey bars contributes so disproportionately to upper-extremity fractures and share practical insights to improve confidence in interpreting these cases. Pediatric Playground Trauma.  Rutten et al. RadioGraphics 2025; 45(11):e250078.

Dr. Refky Nicola speaks with Dr. Sudhakar Venkatesh from Mayo Clinic about the imaging manifestations of alcohol use disorder and its widespread impact on the brain, liver, heart, lungs, and musculoskeletal system. The discussion highlights key radiologic findings, from Wernicke's encephalopathy to hepatic fibrosis, and explores how advanced MRI techniques aid in diagnosis and management. Imaging Manifestations of AlcoholUse–associated Disorders and Diseases. Venkatesh et al. RadioGraphics 2025; 45(7):e240189. 

Host Dr. Lily Wang speaks with Dr. Aakanksha Sriwastwa about the clinical and imaging features of motor neuron diseases and CNS tractopathies. They explore how careful neuroanatomic understanding and MRI patterns help narrow the differential and guide diagnosis.
