stickied megathread. You may also request the moderators to post on your behalf
via DM, pending time and availability.
I think it would be nice for the health-related fields on Lemmy to form a network, so I’m sharing the radiology/medical-imaging community I started.
For now, enjoy a nice selection of mostly my personal cases, which I’m adding at a rate of 1-2 per day. In the long term, I’m hoping to see others post and more discussion as well, similar to the subreddit of the same name.
