okay.. is everybody dead here?

Where are all the radiology people?

I am looking for neato, cool images I can use for a poster to market
my stand alone 3D lab. Anyone have any interesting cases they can send
me?

I would have some personal qualms about privacy violations, even with
all of the personal information redacted.

And you plan to use these for commercial gain?

What is wrong with removing the names and using the images?. I am
creating my own images from the CT/MRI data given. There are no
privacy violations if you cannot identify the facility or the person.
Would you have nothing published in any medical journals?

Well, no. But I do have problems with you using them for personal
profit. Medical journals benefit society through education. Who
benefits from the sale of your stand alone 3D lab?

Re: okay.. is everybody dead here?

Interesting.. So you feel GE, Siemans, Accuson, and the thousands of
other companies out in the world here should use no images at all to
promote their services? When the local imaging center puts an
anonymous radiologist reading an anonymous chest x-ray in the local
newspaper to advertise their location that is a privacy violation?

And I do a good share of educating myself. You woul dbe surprised of
the number of small hospitals and imaging centers that exist who do
not have a workstation or trained technologists capable of doing the
3D. The service allows those smaller facilities to provide service to
the local population that normally they had to go to a larger facility
to get accomplished. This also helps the local facility keep dollars
at home.

In any case, your position is one not felt by most in the world. It
violates no laws so most likely I'll keep it up.

Thanks for your concern.
