ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN RADIOLOGY

☢️ AI is a big techonological deal: in the most recent years it has started to be applied to many aspects of our lives.
The pandemic accelerated the intorduction of AI into the world of medicine, being more and more tested in clinical practice.

Sanlu’s radiology dept is holding a virtual conference to divulge the state of the art of AI applied to radiology: the relators will walk us through the progresses that have been made in the field.

Want to know more? Please follow the link below, you’ll be directed to the Facebook page where the event will take place on Monday 25th from 14:30 to 18:30. Don’t miss out! 💙

🔎The 24th of March is Word Tuberculosis (TB) da

🔎The 24th of March is Word Tuberculosis (TB) day, a day to raise the awareness about the devastating effects of TB.

🔬 The World Health Organization (WHO) launched the first World Tuberculosis Day on 24 March 1982, one hundred years after Dr Robert Koch announced the discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes TB.

⏰ The theme for World TB Day 2021 is ‘The Clock is Ticking’: the world is running out of time to meet the promises made to eliminate this deadly bacterium in 2018 at the United Nations High-Level Meeting (UNHLM) on TB.

🩺Even though when people think of tuberculosis they usually associate it with a disease of the past, TB is still very prevalent and it causes deaths of nearly one-and-a-half million people each year, mostly in developing countries. In low and lower-middle-income countries, tuberculosis is the biggest infectious disease killer.

📈Some numbers: 63 million lives were saved from 2000 by global efforts to end TB, 10 million people fell ill with TB in 2019, 1,4 million people died of TB and 465’000 fell ill to multi-drugs resistant TB.

🌍Stopping tuberculosis requires a global and consistent effort to diagnose and treat all infected patients and to discover new pharmacological treatment options.

🤍#Preventitdon’tforgetit 🤍 Cervical cancer

🤍#Preventitdon’tforgetit 🤍
Cervical cancer was once the leading causes of cancer death for women in the US but nowadays, thanks to screening and the HPV vaccine, it is the most preventable of female cancers.
.
🔬#Screening aims to detect precancerous changes, that may lead to cancer. Several tests can be used:
- Pap test: lab checks the sample for cancer cells or abnormal cells
- HPV test: lab checks for HPV infection.
Screening is mostly started from 25 years of age until 64 years, but Pap tests can be started earlier (e.g. 21 years), especially if women are sexually active.
.
💉According to WHO, the HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer exists in 3 forms: bivalent, a quadrivalent, and a nonavalent vaccine. All three are highly efficacious in preventing infection with virus types 16 and 18, which are responsible for around 70% of cervical cancer cases globally. The vaccination schedule depends on the age of the recipient:
- Females <15 years: 2-dose schedule (0, 6 months)
- Females ≥15 years: 3-dose schedule (0, 2, 6 months)
.
💡#Didyouknow? Recently, males are also getting vaccinated against HPV because, apart from preventing HPV genital warts. It also seems to help decrease occurrence of HPV infection and subsequent cervical disease in women. #cervicalcancer #awareness #women #girl #pap #paptests #hpv #med #medicine #medstudent #medical

🇬🇧Hey everyone!
Since unfortunately this year we were unable to organise a Twinning, EMSA Yeditepe from the University of Istanbul has given us an interesting proposal:
E-TWINNING 2021! 🇹🇷

This would consist in some social programs like challenges (debates, cooking classes, quiz..), online city tours, online games, language course, and so on. Instead for the academic part, professors would give a lecture or show some surgical footage. Of course these are all preliminary ideas. We will do a poll on Instagram stories to understand how many students would actually be interested in attending.

Since, as we said, nothing has been decided, we do not know exactly how much time this will take up. At the moment, we were thinking just a few afternoons in the beginning of March, but of course we are happy to make changes according to the preferences of whoever takes part.

We think it’s a very nice idea in order to get to know EMSA Yeditepe while we wait for a proper exchange to be possible. Furthermore, we also believe it will be good for 1st year and 2nd year students in order to also get to know each other better since it has not been possible for them to actually meet.
We hope you’ll join us!❤️🇹🇷
